Subject: Which Is Worse: Kriss Kross or Ace Of Base

Written By: woops on 01/22/05 at 9:50 pm

IMO, Ace Of Base were far worse since most of their songs have the same beat  :P

Though Kriss Kross was slightly better than Another Bad Creation, but I only can tolerate the song  "Jump"  :-X

Kris Kross for sure. I like Ace of Base; in fact, I have a copy of their debut album The Sign. :)

Neither.

They both have one song I like - Sign -- Ace Of Base & Jump -- Kris Kross.

Kris Kross

I actually grew up a little on Ace of Base myself, while I did enjoy some Kris Kross for a while.

This should be Ace of Base vs Real McCoy. Real McCoy was a ripoff of Ace of Base and Ace of Base was a ripoff of ABBA.

Honestly, I can't vote because I liked both. Actually, Kriss Kross had more of a rap/hip-hop focus than Another Bad Creation. They were more of a mini-R&B/Pop boy group.

I liked "All That She Wants" and "Don't Turn Around" from Ace of Base.

Think about it this way - Ace of Base - while not around is currently being played on a commercial <which my 7 year old loves the "new song" the Sign>.  Therefore, bringing a new fanbase.

I like Ace of Base better than Kriss Kross - plus I could not stand the fact that they wore their clothes backwords. :-\\

I liked Ace of Base. "It's a Beautiful Life" and "All That She Wants" were a couple of my favourites.

As for Kriss Kross, I thought they were more cute than anything. "Jump" was a fun novelty song, if nothing else. I suppose I liked Kriss Kross less.

Ace Of Base had some great songs including "all that she wants".

I remember 2 songs from Kriss Kross........"Jump" and " I missed the bus"...............and its something he will never ever ever do again.......

I chose KrisKross because I enjoyed their two or three hits (and I actually owned their first CD!), but Ace of Base was and still is far more listener friendly.

I don't know.  To determine which is worse would require me to log time listening to both again, and I'd rather massage ground glass into my eyeballs.

Ace of Base I never figured out how to dance to.  Kriss Kross is an occasional guilty pleasure.  I really don't think comparing the both of them is a fair comparison.  Two diffrent genre of rock/pop music.

"Jump" was okay, but Kriss Kross get my vote as they did nothing afterwards. "Miss The Bus" was atrocious.

I hated Ace of Base... the 2 guys looked like oafs and I hate hearing a European accent in music. But saying all that, "The Sign" was quite nice and so was "Life is a Flower".

Kriss Kross. I remember even when I was 10 or 11 thinking they were cheesy (in a good, innocent way).

Whereas I always liked Ace of Base for "The Sign" - does anyone else think that was sort of "Nineties-ified '80s music"?

These which is worse topics really get old as most of the artists mentioned are good.  In this case, I never liked Kriss Kross, so they get my vote.  I always hated how they wore their clothes backwards.  Why did people dress like clowns in the 90s?  Bozo The Rap Star :D

Allegedly, gangters used the big baggy pants to conceal weapons.  That may be an urban myth, but suburban school principals quoted it when they banned the big baggies from the dress code

That didn't have anything to do with gangsta rap.  Hammer's big pants were a throwback to the '40s zoot suit era....in which big baggy suits were popular with, well, gangsters!

See back in the WWII era, textiles were in short supply and very expensive.  If you strutted around in a suit made of 100 yards of silk, you were the mac daddy of 1942!  That's why they wore them funny clothes.  It's was sort of the '40s equivalent of big-azz gold chains!

Well, I actually enjoyed a lot of Ace of Base songs (they were fun and I feel nostalgic when I hear them)... Can't say that I can even think of a song by Kriss Kross off the top of my head, so they get my "worse" vote...
