Why did Keith Richards compare Mick Jagger’s album to Mein Kampf?

out of Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger had some solo work. However, one of the singer’s studio albums was compared to Mein Kampf (2025), book by Adolf Hitler in which he expresses anti-Semitic ideas, for Keith Richardsguitarist of the band.

The album in question is She’s the Bossfirst solo work by Jaggerreleased on February 19, 1985. After that, Rolling Stones worked on Dirty Work (1986), and Richards was quite frustrated, as the guitarist recalled in his memoirs life (via Cheat Sheet Showbiz).

“The album of Mick was called She’s the Boss, which said it all. I never heard the whole thing through to the end. Who listened? It is like Mein Kampf,” he stated in the work. “Everybody had a copy, but nobody listened to it. As for the carefully worded subsequent titles, Primitive Cool (1987), Goddess in the Doorway (2001), which was irresistible not to rename Dogs*** in the DoorwayI close my case.”

He says I don’t have good manners and speak badly. He even wrote a song about it. But that record deal Mick it was rudeness beyond any verbal mockery.

Furthermore, Keith Richards opined how the lack of quality on the disc meant that Mick Jagger had lost control over what constituted good music: “Just from the choice of material, it seemed to me that it had really gone off the rails.”

“It was really sad. He wasn’t prepared to not make an impact. And he was upset. But I can’t imagine why he thought he was going to fly,” continued the musician. “It was here that I felt Mick I had lost touch with reality.”
