jordin sparks mention hello

i also hate elvis LOLLL for obvious reasons so thank you for including that

i think questlove has done a good job at covering the major events each year and connecting them to music. granted so much happens in such a small time that’s a really hard thing to do!

loved the comment on asking “where” art comes from, most people don’t look beyond what’s in front of them.

understanding the history of something is imperative to understanding the current “thing”.

really enjoyed the disco portion!! i still laugh at the beef between disco, hip hop, rap, and rock n roll bc they share so many elements and honestly are more alike than different.

got this book three years ago im finally reading it! 🫡🫡🫡🫡
