Celebrities With Failed Music Careers

[@mattyballz]

i wanna clarify again that none of these ppl were bad at making music, other than kim some were pretty good, but they just werent rlly commercially successful. kobe and rdj were def slept on 💯

[@SIR_7200]

Hi Matt! 😀

[@BIGETV.]

can we get a part 2 of KZbinrs with failed music career

[@vividchrxmez]

Other than kim😂

[@butterfacemcgillicutty]

What about Oscar de la Hoya!?!?!??!? He got nominated for a Latin Grammy! Lol, omfg seriously have a laugh: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnWzfKeAlrB5paM

[@Shoodles]

Bro just roasted kim 😂

[@nomadjordanx8148]

I like how since jada smith career in metal didn’t take off so her daughter picked it up and willow does it well and they should do a song or album together

[@mattyballz]

willow actually reunited the band in 2021 for her mom on mothers day and surprised her

[@danrandlehandle]

I hope you’re not calling willow smith metal

[@ladydontekno]

@@danrandlehandle willow smith wouldn’t call herself metal

[@JaBoreman]

​@@danrandlehandlethey're all trash at music. Just privileged rich kids who can do anything and people like this idiot who called her metal will like it because they're told to and have no ability to think for themselves but their music all sucks lol

[@JaBoreman]

​@@mattyballzyou're not very good at this music review thing are you lol maybe play video games or something

[@SIR_7200]

Can’t believe Robert Downey Jr. had a music career!

Cant believe they did an easter egg too

Eddie Murphy definitely didn’t fail he went platinum.

[@mattyballz]

Yeah, fail may not be the perfect word but he stopped releasing cus of all the critics n stuff

[@PaidFamCap]

@@mattyballz it also started as a bet with Richard Pryor

[@williamz7011]

If you do a part 2, here are a few ideas. Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Joe Pesci, Shaq, Russell Crowe, John Cena, and my personal favorite, Bruce Willis. "Respect Yourself" is comically good

[@ConsistentlyInconsistent21]

Dude, Joe Pesci???

[@williamz7011]

@T Parsley III yeah man, he did a whole ass jazz album in the late 60's (it's not bad either), and then he had a rap song in the 90's called "Wise Guy"

[@ConsistentlyInconsistent21]

@@williamz7011 now I've got to hear them

[@T1214-k9c]

Tbh Cena actually wasnt that bad

[@hurtspublishing3906]

Lindsay had a pretty successful singing career at one point and Paris stars are blind was huge back then

[@34_Conflict]

I had no idea Eddie Murphy made party all the time and what made it even more surreal is that Rick James produced the shit.

[@Zappy-ray777]

Bruh fr ?

[@ladydontekno]

I guess you weren’t around in the 80s. That song was a huge hit!

[@34_Conflict]

@@ladydontekno Nah fam, I'm in my 20's.

[@butterfacemcgillicutty]

The 80s was an interesting time. Even weirder is that Eddie Murphy, then as now, was totally sober. He had a hit song with Rick James of all people and it was called Party All the Time yet he actually never really partied and took care of himself. Which you can tell because he looks great these days. From what I understand his brother did the partying for the both of them. RIP Charlie Murphy.

[@nickmiroli]

@@butterfacemcgillicutty The song isnt about him partying its about a woman that refuses to stay home and chill and instead always goes out parties and is unfaithful no matter how much he spoils her.

[@dudemanofdude]

Kobe was also on a remix of say my name by destiny's child

[@Infinite_Repeat]

Wow I always thought the reason he was called the Futurist in Civil War was cause Tony is sometimes called a futurist in the comics lol

[@Eleven_11]

Kobe was done dirty by Sony

[@eksit101]

My friend became singer for Jada's band. They put stuff out on myspace after. Damn, can't remember what they called it either. But come to think about it, might have been Facebook days by the time he started playing with them.

[@sixtothegeez4482]

I purposefully ignore that song with Eddie and Mike because the second I hear “wazzup” the shit instantly stuck in my head, didn’t expect it to be in this video 😂😂

[@mattyballz]

my bad bro 😂

[@DedicatedSpirit8]

RDJ is a goddamn legend. From dreamer and drug addict, to a cemented legend. Did the impossible for most believe it or not.

[@atarakay9900]

It’s funny how Kim said the one thing she would take back is the music…. Are you sure that’s the one thing Kim?

[@Aeunax123]

6:55 the death note music in the background of your videos always sends me 😂

[@mattyballz]

i love it

[@billiesara86]

I Loved Jada's metal band Wicked Wisdom!! Shes a legend in my book for doing something she loves despite the criticism! Us death metal girls are rare, so kudos to her! I do remember they played on David Letterman back in the day.

[@JTScott1988]

I get why. The musics sheer garbage. Just headache inducing noise

[@jbmp1390]

The music was objectively terrible and she had ZERO passion for the genre. She literally tried to buy her way in to it. And the reports of racism were overblown. Just excuses instead of admitting the obvious reasons that fans of the genre didn't respect what she was doing. It's sad because had she done things properly, she could have really broken some ground for women of color in metal. But she acted like an elite, rich person and of course metal fans wouldn't fuck with that. If she actually loved the genre as much as she claimed, she would've known that.

[@SamHarris-ny4wg]

Despite the criticism? They broke up because of the criticism

[@JTScott1988]

@@jbmp1390 metal fans are racist tho… Her race played a role.

[@beepbeeplettuce5890]

Holy shit youre like the biggest poser ive seen on videos like this, and i guarantee youve never heard a single actual death metal song

[@itstoucann]

not a failed career per se, but shaquille o'neal is also now a dubstep mc called dj diesel

[@mentallyaktive916]

Never Forget About Jeremy Renner !

[@DukesMusic84]

RDJ went to my high school, watch out now. This dude got Sting, Duran Duran and Steely Dan to play for his birthday party. So I think he won at life.

[@TheIslandDivision]

We should really stop equating "commercial success" with a successful career.

[@mattyballz]

i agree! but a lot of them quit making/releasing music bcus of that so that’s kinda why i said that

[@maenad1231]

Kim K’s music sounds like she wasn’t even trying

[@wesley.kazungu813]

if we are talking basketball and rap..we have to talk about Allen Iverson and jewels..a rap song so good..the NBA commissioner had to stop it from being sold.

[@spaghettisploitation1029]

I like Kobe but, if these meat riders would open their ears they would hear AI is a far superior rapper.

[@mxstunkxwn7390]

You, my good man have no doubt become one of my favorite youtubers along wit Brandon Buckingham. You finna blow up, my brotha!!!! 💯 Keep up the good work, g! Much love! 🖤

[@mattyballz]

thanks bro! i love his vids too

[@Log3333]

I remember Shaq posted a song that he and Kobe made on his instagram about 2 years ago that was good

[@syria0110]

I liked Shaq's song You Can't Stop The Reign

[@sixxeyes2710]

Thanks for this video because now I've got Wicked Wisdom's songs on repeat. It's a shame the band stopped making music.

[@JiaPia3]

I just about died when Robert Downey Jr sang "driven to tears" with Sting. Look it up. It's amazing.

Actually Hawkeye calling Tony a futurist might not be a reference to RDJ's album, because in the comics Tony is called a futurist

[@krispeekornflex]

If it was really good, no matter what looks, sex, race, etc. mattered, musicians only strive because of their music not fame (98% of the time) So you need to see if your taste in their music caters to other music lovers 1st before you want all these people to pursue their "music".

Great video. I thought it was very intersting and I would not mind hearing willow and Jada on a song together and with Kris being on a song with Travis baker I feel like Kim can re start a music carrer with better producers and talent insted of being used as a Britney spears clone. Rip kobe rap carrer he really was trying to give rap a name before he died so I give him so much respect . Robert Downey a dog with weed smoking thats crazy af . Eddie Murphy should have kept making music since he praticaly did the same thing with his acting carrer that he did with music . Just stop putting it out there. Great video Matty I'm happy to watch it live you make great videos
