Props to dude, but a lot of the questions he asking people to answer for him can just be googled. Finding out what year the song you're listening to came out takes 5 seconds
And is it really that hard to look at the people in a video and tell if it is from the 80's or 90's? You have to have no concept of the world before your birth to be confused like that

A lot of youtubers will ask fans questions just to be interactive with them

And for the second part, nah, he's 20-35 years removed from these songs. I can't tell the difference between movies made in the 50s or 60s. Some of that shyt just intertwines. You really got to put yourself in the kids head.

Most of the songs he's listening to are not in any type of rotation, like at all. So unless you actually seek them out to listen to them, stream or Youtube
People on here sometimes forget how rare a breed we are. We are rap nerds. We live, eat, breathe this shyt. So to us all these songs are like starter kit songs. But for the average person, even big rap fans, may know rappers but they don't know their catalog like that. Especially rappers 20 year before their time.

I think people would be shocked what nikkas haven't heard. Joe BadAss on his podcast a month ago said he's still never heard Doggstyle or the Chronic. Vince Staples said never heard a 2Pac or Nas album, never heard the whole Chronic in his life.

Hip Hop fans are trash, that's why.

:deadmanny: Wu to advance for him at least he admitted it lol.



Yeah. It does take a minute to truly understand Wu, especially if you didn't grow up on them. Hell, we used to be like WTF are they talking about - Good thing he didn't do early Rae & Ghost songs. CTHU

He should've did Wu-Gambinos or Assassination Day, instead of Triumph

I recommended he do Verbal Intercourse the other day in his comments I think he will like it although that shyt is very advanced also.
