I had no idea they released a song together until I saw this article, but I got a kick out of the tweets.

Hell, there were Wings fans who didn't know he was in a band before that. Pop culture is transient.

I really don't think there's a lot of people.

Well if you are truly a fan of this jackhole then I don't expect your IQ to all that high.

I watched this comedy the other day called Top Five. The funniest part was when someone listed Kanye as one of their top five rappers of all time.

Kanye was an executive producer of the movie.

To be fair I don't know of a lot of artists and actors that broke out 40+ years ago.

However, I'm more shocked that people are so willing to expose themselves as idiots on social media rather than just conducting a quick internet search.

How old are you? I'm willing to bet most people under 25 have no idea who he is.

Which is the point of the second part of the post that you chose not to quote.

Regardless, this type of thing has happened before. When Titanic was re-released to theaters lots of high schoolers were tweeting out that they just found out that "Titanic really happened."

Well, you keep living in that fantasy world of yours. I'm 30 and couldn't tell you something Paul McCartney has done in the last 10+ years.

I would bet you anything most 25 year olds couldn't name all of the Beatles. Just because something seems like common knowledge to you doesn't make it common knowledge for everyone.

Im 25. I consider myself a pop culture guru/trivia master. However, I am baffled on a daily basis at the amount of blind spots in my contemporaries minds.

Neither could I, but I still know who he is.
