I’ve always noticed whites would pass their love of classic rock from generation to generation. Therefore you got 16 years old streaming Beatles albums.
I wish we could do that with rap and R&B music. Instead of saying nobody doesn’t want to hear that old shyt

ummm my grandparents did, my parents did it, I do it...

Maybe it’s just the people you know.

I didn't get much information but from what she told me he loved the ladies and would often have security let groupies up to the house and have her aunt cook for them. Sometime the groupies would stay for days before he finally put them out.

Said he bought her Great Aunt a house and several Cadillacs over her span of working there. Her great aunt (a black lady) loved Elvis like a son. The great aunt died in the 90s so these were all stories she heard from her mom (which Elvis bought her first car).

But dude would throw wild parties and just be up all night I imagine on pills. Didn't have anything negative to say about him.

Where the eagles at? Didn't they have mj beat with the highest selling album of all time:skip:? No one is streaming that mega selling album:skip:?

They been playin with Mike for years when it comes to album sales. They do not want to see him at #1.

RiRi at 43:wow:

Beyonce at 56:picard:
You ignored Prince, Mariah, and Whitney when they are all much higher than Rihanna and Beyoncé.

Thriller has sold millions since Michael died and the Eagles haven’t sold nearly as much yet their greatest hits is still considered as the biggest selling album in the US :stopitslime:. I actually like The Eagles but seriously, they need to recount those numbers already. Somebody’s lying.

I’m almost certain Michael surpassed Elvis and the Beatles a long time ago but it was harder to count sells overseas back then so a lot of their numbers are estimated.

I feel what you’re saying but I don’t feel that level of reverence from the younger generation about our music. I want the younger generation to talk about Outkast like the do the Beatles. Instead of calling it that old stuff
