Or is it just hyperbole

Like ive seen people say niggas 21 and up to old to go to a ken carson show yet Ken himself is 24, do the teen listeners even care?

Even in pop, ive seen alot of people try to call out people in their 30s for enjoying BRAT but Charli XCX herself is in her 30s

I think a lot of younger gen z and gen alpha just want to be different and not listen to mainstream music but being closer to their ages also helps

F*** ageist a******s. Live your life.

I am the same age as Carti and love his music idc
Edit: Wait on second thought, I think I would actually still go to his show but probably not moshpit with the kids and stuff like that

No bro that’s some internet s***

I don’t think age is as much of a factor nowadays outside of staying tapped into what’s trending in fashion styles or topics of discussion. Niggas like Kenny Mason are 30 and I don’t think anyone cares cause of how he carries himself

I’m only listening to artists that qualify for Medicare in 2024

off topic but Teezo Touchdown is 32 i thought dude was like 20

It’s only hyperfocused in one demographic cause our fear of mortality

I'm about to be 30 and I could not give a single f*** about what anyone thinks of my tastes and interests because I know I am so f***ing cool and dope and anyone would love my company and to be my friend!

No but they relate more to the young artists now instead of older bc they lived the same Gen Z experience

Zoomers gatekeep older artists this way because there really isn’t much that’s worth gatekeeping coming from their generation

No weird s*** but I b in some discords/ig groups with rappers some are younger and if they find out ur over like 21 they will flame u relentlessly

Which is kinda dumb cuz like xaviersobased and osama like 21

i think people are generally caring less and less which is an extremely good thing. only folks that care are losers in discord servers that are probably insecure about their own ages

That's crazy

I didn't know Osama was I knew Xavier tho

Like melz said it's like a generational culture thing too, even if ur older if u sound like these dudes or have a interesting style u can still be successful

Long as you hot it doesn’t matter
