CAC Harlow didn't know Brandy & Ray-J are siblings

[Braman]

ur in the minority then

anyone born in the 80s to parents who weren't 15 yrs old knows Motown artist like the back of their hand

either that or ur a cac, asian or mexican




but I DO know a black breh in his 30s who can't recite a single Biggie lyric also, so i understand that yall type nikkas do exist, but u guys are rare.

My man…no one knows who tf Jimmy Ruffin is. We not talkin Biggie..we not talking simply ‘motown artists’. Smokey Robinson is a Motown artist. The supremes are motown artists. Hell if you wanna go more obscure Tammy Terrell, the marvelettes. Jimmy Ruffin probably has songs we know but someone under a certain age —-even 40—-can’t name him or make him out of a lineup. Googled him and I promise I’ve never seen that ngga in my life. Stop it

I mean people were on black kids not knowing anything about Outkast and other artists from the late 90’s/2000’s I’m going to let Jack Harlowe have this one. We are just

I made a thread a while back where I worked with some kids who didn't know DMX was. This was before he died where I think a lot of younger folks may have learned about him.


You dudes have to realize our generation is becoming old school now. Our cultural contemporaries from the 90s is shyt a lot of adults now never experienced and you'll find a lot of them are ignorant of shyt that everyone in our generation was aware of.

We knew a lot of the old school artists and we didn’t have half the shyt kids have now lol. Imagine if they had streaming or Google in the 80’s. Again I don’t care about what he knows or don’t, these excuses are kinda crazy though. They don’t know because they don’t want to know and that’s ok.

Jack Harlow was born in 1998 and probably didn't grow up listening to R&B. I work with teenagers who listen to rap all day and they barely know Jay-z and Nas. His response is not shocking.

Same here.

Bet if you ask who wrote "fight for your right to party" he would say beastie boys though.

White people do be knowing them old white acts for real lol. Had an old co worker excited to see Billy Joel when he announced that he was coming to Charlotte.. she was 25 at the time.

I am so sick of hearing about this dude. How did he become so popular so quickly tho? He’s been out for a while but only now I see his name every day.

This thread is full of ignorance trying to disguise itself as knowledge

Right these new kids coming up don’t give a fukk about anyone who was popping before 2000.

What's black famous? Any black person that goes 6X platinum worldwide on her debut album, first black woman to play Cinderella on screen, and was the lead on a sitcom for 6 season in the 90s was FAMOUS famous. You act like we're expecting him to know who Monifah is or something.

 

[MR. SNIFLES]

MEH. I DON'T MUCH ABOUT HIM. HE MIGHT BE TOO YOUNG. STILL FUNNY THAT HE DIDN'T KNOW THAT.
