A teacher asks students to name 1 song by the artist on their shirt

[ThrobbingHood]

i got a photo of me rocking the raiders jersey with the black and white air forces. thought my shyt was cool af at the time too

shyt, the Oakland Raiders design goes hard. I remember my moms got me one with the fitted. You couldn’t tell me I wasn’t that nikka at 8 years old.

Oh for fukk sakes, one of them bytches rocking Def Leppard shirt, the fukk do they know about Def Leppard? They weren't even that big like AC/DC, Guns N Roses or Metallica to be rocking that shyt as some fashion. You gotta be specific if go with Def Leppard joints. There's only couple songs the casual Rock fan might know from them.

Naw, before you say that you should check Def Leppard sales. They sold A LOT of records.

It’s only like 4 bands that ever went Diamond twice in the US and Def Leppard is one of them.

Word. You’d get pressed like wearing red in a Crip neighbourhood.

Lol how'd yall do it? I only wore shirts with stuff I knew about.

 

[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

I knew all the 60s and 70s and 80s....that's cause I had music junkee parents. I was 7 yrs old singing Nina Simone lol

There are kids today like that who have music junkie parents, you just don't see them online being video taped for views. But kids like that are a minority in ANY era. I didn't give much of a care for old music until I started getting girls in my teens and got my heart broken and found myself being comforted by a The Manhattans song that randomly came on while I was grieving that teen affair. Copped thier "Best of the Manhattans" CD and I was hooked on old music ever since

But their hits aren't that popular in todays era.
You'll still hear enter the Sandman or Thunderstruck, those type of songs. Or welcome to the jungle.

You won't hear pour some sugar on me just casually in 2020s in a sports game or anything like that. Whatever they sold their songs right now you have to be a rock fan to recognize their music.

They literally played Pour Some Sugar On Me on Sirius Kids Place Live this morning.


And I see you moving the goalpost from “they weren’t even that big” to “what are they playing at the football game next week”.

I never could get into Guns N Roses....Nirvana and Band Of Gypys was it.

Without me looking it up, is HER the one that sings that song Focus On Me?

I meant popularity. Not preference.

 

[JasoRockStar]

Def Leppard? Nirvana? AC/DC?? Metallica?? Pink Floyd???

I wouldn't expect them to know.

Tupac? Ice Cube? Aaliyah??

Who raised these kids!???​

The Aaliyah and H.E.R. ones are just egregious, simply egregious.

Focus, Against Me, Something Keeps Pulling Me Back, Could've Been, Best Part, etc. She has a good catalogue.

People were always like this

Say what? Back in the 90s people was wearing Pac, Biggie shirts, especially the K.O.N.Y. shirt, Snoop and later on Dipset shirts and Young Money and I guarantee you everyone could name the songs.
