There's a slight difference between No Doubt and Gwen Stefani.

She was in No Doubt. So why not discuss No Doubt here since they are technically a part of her back catalog?
Besides, is her solo stuff really worth talking about? Not quite, Dumont and Kanal were the main songwriters and they along with Gwens brother Eric wrote the majority of No Doubts early work, which of course is their best work, Gwen mostly just did the lyrics. Her songwriting contributions did increase overtime, but thats pretty much around the same time No Doubt lost their appeal. Then she broke up the damn band so she could focus on her brilliant songwriting, observe. YouTube - Hollaback Girl Going from songs like Just A Girl and Spiderwebs to that, not quite what I would call a step up. Last edited by boo boo; 07-04-2007 at 12:08 AM. |

I love No Doubt's material. The "Tragic Kingdom" album was one of my favorite albums as a kid. Her solo material is definitely pop, and she writes commercial material very well. However, with No Doubt finally working on their follow-up to "Rock Steady," I hope that she can put that aside and write music that is true to the style that the band has followed in the past, or at least write material that's of good quality.

she is going back to No Doubt. They have reunited and are working on their next album. They are kinda pissed at her for taking so long with her solo stuff they didn't expect her to make a second album before returning to No Doubt.
