Bad Reputation is the debut solo studio album from Joan Jett, originally released in 1980 following the breakup of her influential band the Runaways. Recorded with a raw, no-frills energy, the album announced Jett as a serious solo force in rock and roll and laid the groundwork for her massive commercial breakthrough with I Love Rock & Roll.
Rooted in the spirit of classic rock pioneers like Buddy Holly and Chuck Berry, Bad Reputation delivers great songwriting, a hard-driving guitar sound, and an unapologetic attitude that still resonates today. Jett's gritty vocals and relentless riffs made this record a defining statement of rock authenticity and girl-powered defiance that continues to inspire generations of musicians.
