When will white Americans stop overrating Buddy Holly?

[Drake is God]

Never heard of this goofy looking CAC before. Will old white people get mad at me for not knowing him like they did when I couldn't name the members of the Beatles?

You didn't grow up with that music so of course you wouldn't know him that's like expecting me to know about Big L, Eric B and Rakim.

I don't know anyone who grew up in that time period thought the kid was a musical genius. I'll say this while obviously he couldn't hold a candle to any of the Black musicians of the era, him Jerry Lee Lewis were more talented than Elvis.
