And it'll happen to you!
That feeling when some millennial Episode IV Luke Skywalker hair asks who Fishbone is.
...this is an amazing insult.
Don't fret. Discovering good music from before your own generation tends to happen in people's 30's and later. They start feeling detached from the "new" music, so start discovering music people from all generations loved and they will discover plenty of older music they then come to love.
Do have to say that the current gen especially is more detached from the music of their parents than Millenials and older were, because often they had internet and their own phones on which they listened to their own music, rather than growing up often hearing their parents music.
My mom was in a rock cover band that covered the 60's-80's and my dad was in both a brass band and orchestra, through them I got in touch with classic rock and the roots of metal pretty early on and learned my fair share of classical music.
My sisters kids have no clue about any music but what they share with their peers.
Man, you just insane in the MEMBRANE... Insane in the brain!
I'm a millennial and I've never heard of Cypress Hill. Looks like it's more of an American thing after I looked it up.
I'm a millennial metalhead from Switzerland, and I have heard of them, listened to them quite a lot years ago.
I guess it depends on multiple factors, not just the continent.
Maybe its an old millennial thing, as a millennial on the border of gen Z, never heard of them.
Might be, I was born in the mid 90's, so I'm quite young for a millennial I guess.
I'm sorry it has come to this but I'm revoking your millennial card
Nooooo. Maybe gen Z will accept me (as long as they can keep calling me a boomer)
I'm Dutch, everyone I know from my age knows Cypress Hill. I mean, he's a fucking legend.
What, have you been hiding in the world's nether region or something?
I guess we must have been hiding together
Idk, I'm not really into pop, hip hop, etc. and I also get the feeling that they weren't as big here in the Netherlands as they were in the states. I'm also very much on the young end of the "millennial" range. I've just listened some of their stuff, and I recognise some of it vaguely. But definitely not enough not remember their name.
I'm gen z and I've never heard of him but in also not american either and I'm glad I'm not because there is something deeply wrong with america that contradicts human rights and equality
Wow so brave
You guys talk to broccoli?
My own son don't know me

Paging Dr. Green thumb
There's this hilarious story about a time where this dude named Nadav who was working for Weedmaps at the time got B-Real way too high on dabs before a 4/20 show. Just fucking delightful.
