Like many of us, Issa Rae likes listening to a little 90’s RnB every now and again. On Twitter, she made the hilarious point that a lot of the music these days aren’t simp enough for her.
She said she was listening to Mint Condition Breaking my Heart and it made her realize that our music now lacks drama and desperation. We might need to bring that back!
Read the funny tweet below:

Twitter was quick to chime in with their own thoughts. These tweets had us rolling!
Anthony Hamilton was the last one begging for his woman. He was so distraught he couldn’t take a bath. ??

and this one about Jodeci:
Lyrics aren’t dramatic. Music videos aren’t dramatic. Jodeci was in the damn desert crying because shorty was gone for an hour. An HOUR. pic.twitter.com/Z7LFt2hGJz

Too much pride.
