Joni Mitchell's brain aneurysm has shocked and worried fans all over the world. While they hang on to every update on the singer-songwriter's health condition, some say the "Big Yellow Taxi" singer is fond of using swear words.
Recent reports say that the "Both Sides Now" singer is actually one of the most profane artists in history. Was this a result of Joni Mitchell's brain aneurysm?
Well, not really.
A new study conducted by Musix Match has found that Joni Mitchell is one of the 361 artists across 8 genres with the most number of swear words in her song lyrics.
According to the study, the singer-songwriter uses profanity once every 792 words in all 19 of her albums, about 57 swear words in total. The top three profane words Joni Mitchell has reportedly used in her songs are "sex," "shit" and "ass."
Meanwhile, rapper Lil Wayne has the highest number of profanity, with 3,960 followed by Tupac with 2,742 instances of profanity and Snoop Dogg with 3,535.
Other artists in the list are Chief Keef, Dr. Dre, Korn, Slipknot, Diplo, Deadmau5, GreenDay, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Charli XCX, Tove Lo, The Neighborhood, Modest Mouse, Loudon Wainwright III, Justin Moore and Eric Church.
The study comes after Joni Mitchell suffered from brain aneurysm in her Bel Air home on March 31, 2015.
In a recent interview, Joni Mitchell's friend, Chaka Khan, said that the singer-songwriter is recovering smoothly.
"We're good friends and she's doing very well, by the way," Chaka Khan revealed of Joni Mitchell's brain aneurysm condition. "I want everyone to know that she's getting better and better every day."
"She's my No. 1 artist and songwriter, and she has been for a long time," Khan said, adding that she is making a tribute album for the legendary music artist. "See, Joni Mitchell, she's actually funky, she just doesn't know it, and I'm bringing that forward. The jazz is in there."
