Hip Hop pioneer Russell Simmons has an eye for talent and music. As the founder of one of the world’s first Hip Hop labels, Simmons has introduced countless fans to the world’s most popular platinum selling artists.

But it appears Simmons may have stuck his foot in his mouth. Simmons compared Justin Bieber to iconic musicians.

Simmons praised the Bieber, comparing the “Baby” singer’s new sound to Jodeci and Prince.

“Oh sh… @justinbieber. New sh..?Sounds like a young cool jodeci/prince/blue eyed soul- hip h/p/op singer wowow,” the Def Jam Records founder wrote on his Twitter account.



Fans consider Jodeci and Prince to be icons. Bieber has big shoes to fill if he wants to be mentioned alongside the R&B and Pop titans.
