4 Non Blondes | GenZ Latina FIRST REACTION | Whats up

[@Cadinho93]

Fun Fact: Lead singer Linda Perry went on to write iconic hits for the likes of P!nk, Christina Aguilera, Gwen Stefani, Britney Spears and so many others in the 2000s. Her résumé is crazy and she's such brilliance in simplicity. Three repeating chords under Linda's voice. '90s perfection.

[@neilpatrickhairless]

Linda Perry still ghostwrites a lot of music for a lot of artists and bands to this day and is a killer producer.

[@TrianglesAndCircles]

Linda has so much talent and her personality is addictive.

[@mrnobody9104]

If you can't tell 4 chicks this generation is screwed....just can't wrap my head around it.

[@reppost]

Easy to say for those of us who were there when this came out but these days you get less grief for using racial slurs or threatening violence than you get for assuming genders. Sometimes it's easier to play it safe.

[@stevenewcomer8837]

For the record, there are ONLY TWO GENDERS and you can’t change the one that you were CONCEIVED with.

[@jamescrane2156]

Alanis Morissette - You Oughta Know (Official 4K Music Video). Female singer. Alternative rock/ hard rock from 1995.

[@TrianglesAndCircles]

Alanis Morissette is definitely a wonderful deep dive.

[@dialecticalmonist3405]

I second Alanis Morissette. I hate to admit that I like her music, but I do.

[@steveb-y4l]

I third it. Alanis is addictive.

[@Quizzy0000]

Alanis is a savage singing that song :P

[@TrianglesAndCircles]

@Quizzy0000 A scary beast of a woman in You Oughta Know - Wow.

[@biggblack5]

The lead singer Linda Perry went on to become a top producer, two top stars I remember her working with is Christina Aguilera and Pink. This song was huge in the 90's, it's actually when MTV played videos all day long instead of TV shows lol.

[@themakkoning]

from Megan the Stallion to weezer, ziggy marley, gwen staffani, ringo its crazy

[@neilpatrickhairless]

Linda Perry ghostwrites a lot of very popular music for pretty much every pop artist of the past 30 years plus. She's like THE one to go to if you want a hit written

[@anthonyguadagnino2681]

So funny when this came out none of us wondered if it was a male or female.

[@napoleoninrags9021]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@nomasker1360]

[@bryceeasterman3943]

4 non blondes was a alt rock group from San Francisco original members were all female lead singer is Linda Perry, Wanda Day on drums Shauna Hill on guitar Christa Hillhouse bassist

[@kitharley6159]

Sorry, but no. Lead guitarist on their only album (and on this video) is Roger Roche.

[@TigredelMar]

Summer of '94, blasting this song everyday, what an awesome summer, man, great memories!

[@PaulB-vi5bl]

Summer of 93!

[@texaszed9834]

The Christina Aguilera song "Beautiful" was written and produced by Linda Perry lead singer of the 4 Non Blondes

[@vodkarage8227]

She has one of the best sounding female voices I have ever heard. It is a unique sound and I really like her rock sound in this song.

[@nicks8131]

Much, much, much respect to Linda Perry. Her voice it is just soul piercing. So glad you enjoyed this song! I can't help but sing along with her on the chorus because it is so fun to sing at the top of your lungs in the car with the windows rolled down. I don't even care who's watching, haha! Thank you!

[@philipkudrna5643]

Belinda Carlisle - La Luna! From her 1989 album runaway horses. I had a crush on her in the early nineties - such an iconic voice!

[@Mazecraft]

Anyone else remember the video when 4 Non Blondes covered Zeppelin's Misty Mountain Hop? That was 🔥 too! Y'all, we were spoiled in the 90s.

[@shannonherb2048]

I'm so glad to see you listening outside the box. You're a true gem and I hope you know that.❤

[@razor49er]

Ahhhh the Singer is Definitely a Woman that’s about as clear as day

[@dialecticalmonist3405]

Uh... no it isn't. Not to the current generation.

[@antichoice1]

@@dialecticalmonist3405 Yeah, they are confused as hell. It's unfortunate.

[@garrett6064]

Fun Fact: The words "Whats Up" are never sang in the song. It was originally called "Whats Going On", but another artist came out with a song with that title right before them and they didnt want any confusion, so they changed the title.

[@albertgonzalez5466]

This song was everywhere but i guess the 90's were a long time ago. Was a lot going on back then and it's forever my favorite era of music. From artists like Keith Sweat and Boyz II Men to Tupac, Nirvana, Garth Brooks, Alanis Morissette, Korn, Marilyn Manson, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Whitney Houston and so on. Every genre had a good time. Great songs. Happy to be along with you on your journey

[@barrywaskewitch6022]

It's a changing world that is here after I first seen and heard this song...

[@JeffCarlson-p2n]

We actually used to make fun of this song at my first job in 93. But it all makes sense in 2024

[@jeh58]

It is called Vocal Fry, "a way of speaking in which the voice is very low-pitched and has a characteristic rough or creaking sound."

[@seangraham57]

4 non blonde girls,saw them live was there ,Meadowbank stadium Scotland, Back up artists With The Great artist ,His show The Purple One. PRINCE.

[@nrdztx]

Iconic song from the Summer of 93.

[@Quizzy0000]

i love linda perry's voice i wish she kept singing rock/ hardrock next to writing songs for others. she has a killer voice.

[@johnlongenecker7779]

"What's Up" is sort of the unofficial theme song for the Netflix series "Sense8". A fill episode is built around this song

[@jodyarmstrong5974]

Linda Perry was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2015

[@rockyjerome9475]

Linda Perry has had her first solo album, and I have to tell you, it's amazing. It's a chillin type that is kind of story base. However, you get to hear and realize her fabulous talent. The album is "In Flight"

[@sandralandivar5263]

Linda Perry is the lead singer. She became a top producer, writing many hit songs for various singers like Pink, Christina Aguilera, and many more. Don't worry, its okay to ask something you're not sure of. Linda was once married to Sara Gilbert (she was Darlene, the daughter of Roseanne on her T.V. show.)

[@scottvanhille5688]

Yes, 4 non Blongs lol. Just heard this one last week on the radio, love the power in her voice. I suggest Winger--Headed For A Heartbreak, they look like a pack of wolves.

[@denniszawistowski222]

Another great reaction Ms Mia, plus an another amazing reaction on Patreon ❤❤❤

[@roycelabor4339]

Great reaction Mia! Linda has an amazing and unique voice. I recommend listening to some more of her offerings. Keep up the great work!

1989....they were recording this album in San Francisco during the San Francisco/Oakland earthquake. My favorite female vocalist. When this song came out in 89 we were not sure if it was a male or female.

[@taoist32]

I could tell she was female. Not everyone back then had a problem figuring out what gender she is.

[@angelaolson2025]

I ❤ it! Always makes me happy 😊 Thank you!

[@matthewserros5680]

[@alanbarger7712]

Great song. You liked it. I'm an older man. I was 22 when this hit the radio. Epic song. It's not just for women. I think everyone can relate to what she is saying.

[@frankcalderas7119]

Linda Perry is mainly a songwriter. She has written many songs for other artists of which I can almost guarantee you’ve heard at least one… maybe two if not more.

[@mikealdana5884]

4 Non Blondes is a Chick 🐥 band from the 90’s just like Alanis Morrisette, Sheryl Crow, Lisa Loeb, Sarah McLachlan, and etc. IMO, the 1990’s was the last decade of great music (Alternative, Grunge, Hip-Hop, Heavy Metal, and Rock)

[@kitharley6159]

Three women, one man. They began as an all-female band, but later, before they recorded, they replaced their lead guitarist with Roger Roche, who plays on this song.

[@josephwhite4489]

As much as I've loved this song for 30+ years, I've loved that top hat/goggles look even more!!! Where can I get a hat like that, I wonder?? My hair is as long and curly as Slash's now,,,I think I could pull it off, he he.

[@charlesmarkley220]

She, her, that girl has a beautiful voice. 😊

[@JeffPhillips-dn2fg]

Old Time Rock and Roll- Bob Segar. I believe this 4 Non Blondes singer has a “rasp” sound. That’s the sound you are liking I think? Mia if you like this, you’d love Bob Segar’s voice. He was huge in the 70s and 80s.

[@jaimegarcia6114]

It is a girl rock band. The lead singer, Linda Perry has written songs for other artists that have been major hits. This whole album is great.and sadly it was their one only release. So I guess you can say that "What's Up" was a "one hit wonder"

[@diphsehdoodahl1325]

I got this album with about 4 or 5 others, (including a Red Hot Chili Pepper's and Sound Garden album) for like 5 cents each from Columbia House Records back in the day. I played all those CDs to death, but this one was the most surprising. Every song was a banger and her voice is extremely versatile and powerful. I got my moneys worth for sure!

[@joealvarez8733]

5¢ 😂😂😂😂 🤘👽🤘💰💰💰

[@diphsehdoodahl1325]

@joealvarez8733 Columbia House was the 💣 ☺️

[@ChristopherRobinson-l5v]

I would vote Linda Perry as Queen of the lesbians. Being married to Sara Gilbert is good evidence to back up that vote. Been a giant fan since I first heard her sing 30+ years ago.

[@ShadowRyu]

For Spanish may I recommend: Snow Tha Product- ay ay ay Cookie cutter b*tches Drunk love Waste of time Fun fact she raps in Spanish and English, often mixing both languages in her songs And just for fun check out Sublime-caress me down

[@mikeadair3341]

They are 4 women and none of them are blonde. Thus 4 non blondes. Great song.

[@GhostyTMRS]

For the 1990’s: Deee-Lite - Groove is in the Heart (ultimate clubbing anthem) Prince - The Morning Papers (not a hit but should’ve been) For the 2000’s: Johnny Cash - Hurt (one of the most emotional videos ever made).

[@daletolmich6459]

Only Mia could listen to the most thought provoking, woman's empowerment anthem and wonder if they're women or men. 😂😂😂

If you turn on captions in YT you have the lyrics most of the time. Linda Perry the Lead singer is a songwriting legend. Wrote songs for a lot of artists and had many many hits. I iterpet the song as her frustration with the Male dominated recording industry execs. This was the bands only no 1 hit. The record company and the rest of the band wanted to make the second album the same as this song. Linda rejected them both and turned to writing hit songs for others. Notably Pink! Linda has has great success as a hitmaker.

[@brucevaudrien3373]

she was a major songwriter for other artist but never really did much for herself to perform

You've done a lot of 90s actually haha (Nirvana, RHCP, Extreme, Green Day, etc).

Thank U beautiful for another amazing reaction hope you had an amazing Christmas and had a lovely boxing day wishing you all the best for 2025 Ur so beautiful as always

[@matthewgoodA1206]

Somehow, this song always manages to put me in a good mood, lift me up. Might be the key, melodies, chord progressions or all of the above. They were women, so you got it right. Lesbian women, I believe, for whatever that’s worth. Lead singer Linda Perry does have a low voice, so she doesn’t sound ultra girly. But she can also create so many vocal sounds, and does a lot here. As for their style, it was just the ‘90s. That’s when lots of people, girls included, wore big boots with dreads and jewelry. I knew girls with partially shaved heads (even took one on a date). Still have great memories of that time.

[@Metal_Archaeologist]

Not sure if GODS have gender, but Linda Perry's voice is out of this world. (Linda is an awesome Female fronting an AWESOME band....) Great song, check out some others by these great musicians. Peace!

One hit wonder but lead singer Linda Perry wrote many songs for other artists. Allegedly this was an all Lesbian female band. Mia, not all females have soprano voices.
