Thats why Napster/Limewire etc jumped off like it did....and now we got Google Play,Spotify,Tidal etc for the 9.99

yeah but just think. Artists were goin 5x 6x 10x plat those days at $18 a CD. Double albums were $35

Music ain't never seeing money like that again

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

so all these people are now about 40-45. Damn they still got decades left

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

I need to watch this but its crazy because this is the same generation that gets duped by online information the HARDEST.

nah that's they parents. These people are now 40-45 or so. They parents are the worst culprits. But they all Trumpers regardless..

Can any of the gen x or older millennial dudes on here speak on whether there's any truth to the whole "people and musicians in the early 90's were super progressive and accepting because of Cobain and grunge" thing they were trying to push? I was born in 93 so I don't really know, but it's hard to believe that was the case. If you told me that white male entitlement and rage manifested differently in a very small and specific slice of mainstream music I could maybe believe that, but I can't see it being a real and notable cultural difference

Cobain is just a cop out for these cacs. They act like they were headed for world peace with him... Cacs always gon cac. The people who were into the grunge scene are probably still into gay rights and feminism etc..

I'm not sure Woodstock was as big a moment as yall are making it in the thread.

in 1999 Woodstock 99 was a relative non factor.

I'd almost say yall are borderline engaging in revionist history making it bigger than what it was.

in the late 90s the idea of having a Woodstock was not eagerly sought.

and the subsequent chaos and failure and limited background reports of sex assault made it a non factor and a stain on MTV and they did away with it almost like it dont happen there after


Also the DMX performance HAD ZERO RELAVANCE IN 1999. NOBODY SAW IT ON TV AND HE GOT NO REP FROM IT.
should he have? Yes. But it wasn't really a thing.

and also it wasn't legible, the widespread idea of a Rapper performing for a white rock festival had only just occurred with Wu Tang a yeer or two ealier with Wu Tang Forever.
20 years later today it common.

We look back with the footage on stage of the DMX Woodstock performance being amazing ONLY BECUASE IT SURFACED ON YOUTUBE.

Sorry but I just needed to bring this back to reality it was getting a little out of hand

Everything you said was wrong. Woodstock '94 had a bunch of hip-hop artists. DMX performance was always pretty noteworthy and MTV did show it... and Woodstock '99 was wall to wall coverage on MTV that whole weekend and then the aftermath that followed...

MTV was the biggest thing on cable. TRL was the highest rated daytime program. The MTV video awards were more popular than any awards show outside of the Oscars.

Breh hit Facebook. The Anti-Vaxxers and Qanon Moms is all Gen X breh.

u right.. but i think we making the mistake of NOT grouping boomers and gen x together. Gen x became what they was supposed to be against
