I always hated Pink Cadillac. Mostly because it was overplayed on MTV. I’m waiting on Prince or a rap video but had to sit through that joint being played twice an hour EVERY HOUR.

its not a bad song but I HATED IT back when it came out.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*

I loved Prince, loved the movie, loved looking at Appalonia, loved the album but that fucking song..

HATED IT

just cheesy and sappy. Ole begging asses

but like 10 to 15 years ago, realized that song is dope AF. When them drums hit.. whew.

I hated it so so much as a child.

funny you say that cuz i do remember that. i'd be waiting to see a Run DMC/Beastie Boys/Fat Boys and here comes Pink Cadillac again.

speaking of Fat Boys, one i hated was when they got w/ Chubby Checker for the The Twist. MTV used to blow that one out too. i still dislike that one though, LOL.

When I actually had to sing them I ended up loving them and appreciating the vocal arrangement.

Now I see they are gods

When they were really rolling in the late 00s, I kinda-blindly hated everything they put out with a thorough passion.

I've since come to massively appreciate a lot of their songs, and specifically Lil Wayne in terms of lyricism. I still don't think he's even close to one of the "best" but he can rap and he's a lot of fun. Throwback.

Now when I see those old shiny suit videos I feel nostalgia for it.

I was jamming to it last week thinking about that lol….
Aretha was on one.

which was a cover of Bruce Springsteens bside

And since we’re here, please believe! I was very not into the Aretha one. And I didn’t have much love for Pink Cadillac AT ALL. I was just old enough to know that Natalie Cole made Our Love.

But really, I now love Jump to it so much that it nullifies my disdain for either of those two songs.

Doubt anyone would play it if you requested Pink Cadillac… lol

Not a total hate but it reminds me of the time when V-103 was like “Play rap on Sundays?! FOH.” There’s so much of ATL I’ve never seen because that shit used to put me to sleep.

When it was out I always found it mad boring. Instant skip or background music for me.

Not sure why I really fuck with it now that I'm older. Doesn't even have anything to do with my own mother whom I've always had a super strong relationship with since toddlerhood.

It's just a really, really well made song.
