Can you give me one song that came out almost 30 years ago that 18-30 year olds would get hype to?

This song.

When the movie dropped NWA's "Straight Outta Compton" hit #4 on the Billboard Charts. Now, do you think that was all old heads buying their 6th copy of that album, or new people checking it out?

Just because the crowd at Coachella is lame doesn't mean people don't know the song.

Just because the record sells after a movie for nostalgia/classic meaning doesn't mean it's a song young people want to get hype to.

How do you know it's for nostalgic reasons? There's no way you can know that.

I don't understand how the people that bought "Straight Outta Compton" 28 years after it's debut isn't a good example....but the crowd at Coachella is.

Coachella (and SXSW) show are never that hype....the days are energy sapping.

its warm, drunk or on drugs, tired...you might get a light sway..a meek effort.
if you see hands in the air, their phones are usually in them and its to take a picture of themselves.

i know someone that was there being paid just to wear clothes and pop up at a few sponsored things.

Coachella is a very small sample size. Don't know why this is a shock to anyone.

shyt like this is why i dont go to coachella anymore :camby:

i hate the people who go now

its not a music festival anymore, its just a hipster get together

spend hundreds of dollars to smoke weed, eat shrooms and hate on the music that's being played

:snooze: :snooze:


Yup music festivals aren' fan events anymore shyt is for ppl who just want to be seen out

It's Coachella. What did you expect? :russ:

This song isn't going to resonate with that demographic.

Also Coachella (and most of these other popular concerts) is just a place to be seen now anyway
