Why do people hate Robin Power?

On this board a lot of people mentioned how annoying Robin Power was in Graffiti Bridge. Why? I thought she was great, had a banging body and was a good dancer. I always loved it when P worked with strong black women. I am missing the annoying part! confuse

I think Robin Power had potential to be the best female rapper ever. I use her song "Number 1" on my answering service. It is my favorite song by a female rapper. Move over MC Lyte and Latifah. Make room for the REAL queen

Are you kidding??? Did you ever see the long version of the "Theives in the Temple" video when her and P are dancing? They were awsome together! It is so diffrent seeing someone so strong dancing with him rather than someone more submissive like Mayte (even though I love that girl! Love them dancing together too) I love dance so I always notice stuff like his relationship with dancers. biggrin I so wish he would of made an album for her.

I think this summarizes it pretty well. She didn't do a whole lot, that's correct. Even "Number 1" was not released. It's an outtake. I cannot like / dislike her because I really don't have her on my list.

You guys have a point but I am sure they danced together alot live which I would have loved to see or maybe even more videos that P just chose not to release. pray

Mayte, Geneva, and Cat showed how dispoable the hot dancing chick can be when it comes down to making the real music. They couldnt sing and play so their contributions - while nice - were limited. Robin Power is no exception. And her rap on Number 1 is the only thing worse than her acting in Graffiti Bridge. But I am not bashing - I liked her

Please, in future, the proper term for a woman like Robin Power is "NBA whore."

Use of slang terms like "NBA ho" set a bad example for the children who come to this site to develop their language skills, O.K.?

her rapping is very annoying.
she always sounds like she is yelling at you.
she has a big-mouth.she has a hard time staying on beat.
her lyrics are amongst the most banal and trite shit i have ever heard commited to tape.
to be perfectly honest,the only reason she got her foot in the door over at paisley park is because she has,or had,a nice big-ass.end of story.

The Prince penis thing seemed to be a compliment though. 7 and a half inches (as if she looked that closely?) she said.
