re: Kanye fans have no idea who Paul McCartney is

That said, I'm in the mid 20s demographic being discussed and I can't imagine that the cliff for not knowing who he is came right after me. Teenagers, no doubt, I'd think there's a good chance because their parents likely were too young to be primary Beatles fans.

That's the position that I'm taking as well. I'm 26, and I'm pretty damn sure that all of my friends can list all the Beatles. Granted my friends might tend to know more about musicians, but I think everyone of my friends would be surprised to meet someone about the same age as us who didn't know the Beatles. The assumption would probably either be that the person doesn't care about music at all or is under-educated.
