Kids are asked to name a song by the artists on their shirts and.... Yeah

Let me be clear cause I see this slowly turning into some gatekeeping accusations which at least for me, I'm definitely NOT doing.

It is not a requirement to know a single thing about these artists. I just find it mildly interesting there is little to no research if you're going to be wearing a famous person on your chest. That's all

It seems like ya whole argument up to this point is it IS a requirement to at least 1 song from a person you wearing tho

And at least for me my point is it’s just fashion so what difference does it really make?? I mean do you constantly walk around in your Lacoste thinkin’ about famous tennis players?? How wild would it be for somebody to approach you in some “Hey….I see your Lacoste…how many majors did Boris Becker win??” Lol

False. I've had only worn shirts of artists I bang with. But if I put a Pink Floyd, Beatles, Metallica, Jimi Hendrix, or a Led Zeppelin shirt on, I could give at least five songs from those bands/artists.

They just rock whatever these days.

I disagree

I've asked how you can wear the shirt but not know at least one song

I never said or implied it was a requirement

And when I think of Lacoste, one of the first things I think about is the split from Izod

Bare minimum research.

But this is interesting again because would you let any of your kids wear an R Kelly shirt? I'm not trying to ask this as a personal attack or anything so I hope it's not perceived as such but again, if you gonna wear another person on your shirt that you aren't related to, I would hope at a minimum and I do mean the bare minimum, you've looked up something about them.

I mean they not sellin’ R. Kelly shirts tho…

Either way we can just agree to disagree lol

I definitely understand where you’re comin’ from (pause) and I’m sure you understand my “it’s just fashion” stance…
 
I’m not gon knock the youngins for not knowing. Especially songs by AC/DC, Metallica, Pink Floyd, Def Leppard…

I didn’t discover them until much later in my adult life

But also it’s on the adults to pass on knowledge. Just like our elders put us on to great music.

I can understand tha hockey jerseys cuz it may not have been as popular down south but you’ve never wore a Ralph Lauren shirt or hoodie or nuttin’?? I mean I get that might not be everyone’s style but I thought everybody had at least 1 piece of Polo garment once in their life….damn
