These were the years biggest flops, IMO. Who do you think flopped the hardest? I'm going to be forced to drop down and get my eagle on one last time and vote for Nelly's "Flap Your Wings".

The Nelly/Christina duet was much hyped up but it didn't do much at all.

Well I'm going to vote for the one that I haven't even heard of before and that would be Cam'ron's...Out of them all the only ones I ever heard on radio were Chingy's and Christina/Missy.  |

I voted for the wrong song (didnt see Christina) but I would mark her as well.

Gwen because it's the song I understand the least why it flopped.

I had to go with "Tilt Ya Head Back," because it luckily did not meet its expectations.

As far as most underrated, I would give that to "Whatever U Want". "What You Waiting For?" is pretty good, too, but it wasn't a flop in some circles, anyway. Chingy's "Balla Baby was very overrated. The only song I've never heard or even was aware of is the Cameron song (and I'm so delighted to find out that it's failing), so I guess that must be the biggest flop.
I agree that both Janet and Brandy did much more poorly than expected or deserved.

Brandy flopped alot harder than Janet. But after Brandy's previous album, no one expected her to go 3x Platinum. Janet couldn't even sell one million after a successful album. |

All those songs had video's to promote the song except "Outrageous" and it still managed to reach top 20 on the Pop chart.
I think "Tilt Your Head Back" was expected to atleast do decent but it didn't so that get's my vote!

Cam'ron. I didn't know he even had a new album out until a couple weeks ago.

Cam'Ron, followed by Nelly. At least all the others hit the top 40.  |

"Tilt Ya Head Back" was the one I thought had the most potential just based on the pairing and it did horribly.

I voted for "Whatever U Want". It was a good, catchy, radio-friendly song that desrved much better. I refuse to vote for either of the Nelly songs because, with fifteen songs being played at once, some of them are bound to flop.

The biggest flop out of these is definately the Nelly/Christina duet.

Definitely Nelly/Christina Aguilera.
I mean, come on. Christina Aguilera was coming off of a release that exploded worldwide and generated four Top 15 singles, not to mention re-defined her somewhat. Meanwhile, Nelly landed two mega-hits from "Nellyville" and was still making waves with the chart-topping "Shake Ya Tailfeather".
Surely to anyone this sounded like a winning combination, if not in terms of quality, quantity.
By far an incredible flop of mass proportions!
I'd say Gwen Stefani's first single performance was pretty disappointing also (I thought it was a great first single) but not of the Nelly/X-Tina magnitude.
Sincerely,
Noah Eaton

Those two Cam'ron songs never even went for adds. that's what I was going to say--- obviously all of these songs did either nothing or very little, so you have to judge it off how much they were pushed to radio. |

"Get Em Girls" wasn't a radio single? I was sure it was, I knew "Lord You Know" wasn't, and that's why I put the other song with it...Is "Girls" a radio single??
