Of course, Jett's musical career was actually just beginning, and all the challenges she faced only made her more motivated. In fact, her fury over the way male music execs treated her helped to inspire one of her biggest hits: "Bad Reputation."
"Joan had this bad reputation, no label would sign her — that’s why we own the records,” he continued. “I was trying to give her the advice of an old man, but she was a teenager at the time, and she says, ‘Look, I don’t care about my bad reputation.’ I said, ‘Whoa, there’s the song.'”
"Everyone feels maybe they’ve got a bad reputation in one area of their life or another, or maybe [have been] unfairly accused — or just a misconception of who you are, and people throw that label at you," Jett told RS in a 2022 interview.

Jett went on to point out that women who aren't in the music business have to deal with the same "hard glass ceiling."
Decades later, "Bad Reputation" is more than just a hit song — it's become a huge part of pop culture. In addition to appearing in movies like Shrek and 10 Things I Hate About You, "Bad Reputation" was the theme song for Freaks and Geeks. And it's still relevant to pioneering women everywhere...just ask Taylor Swift, who used "Bad Reputation" as the entrance music for her 2018 tour.
