Bad Reputation is the debut solo studio album from Joan Jett, originally released in 1980 following the breakup of her influential band the Runaways. Born out of fierce independence and a refusal to be silenced by an industry that turned its back on her, the album stands as one of rock's most defiant statements and laid the groundwork for Jett's massive commercial breakthrough with I Love Rock 'n' Roll.
Rooted in the raw energy of classic rock and punk, Bad Reputation showcases Joan Jett's powerhouse guitar work, unapologetic attitude, and an instinctive understanding of what makes rock and roll feel urgent and alive. Drawing on the spirit of Buddy Holly and Chuck Berry while channeling something entirely her own, Jett delivered an album full of grit, swagger, and timeless songs that continue to resonate with rock fans decades after its release.
