This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

None of those people are Millennials 🙂 I checked out some other pages on the site, I knew all of the boomers for the reason you said.

Shit I didn't see that link

Haha no worries, those folks could be just as famous and I will then have no more excuses...

Kendrick Lamar, Daniel Radcliffe (played Harry Potter), Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber. Radcliffe is the only one I would expect most people to get. Bieber hasn't even been in the news cycle since before Covid, at least that I've noticed. Lady Gaga is more of a millenial pop icon than Grande. And Kendrick is definitely one of, if not the biggest name in hip hop right now, but unless you follow hip hop news you probably wouldn't see him much in your newsfeed.

Whelp, all names I've heard! But not sure I've seen them much. I don't think I have ever seen Harry Potter (I have no excuses). I have read some things about Lamar so have probably seen a picture. Maybe I should go give him a listen!

Thanks for breaking it down.

Lamar is great. Not the type to rap about money, women and getting fucked up. I'd recommend mAAd City, DNA., HUMBLE. to start with. I'm not big into rap, but Kendrick is great.

I recognize Bieber, Selma Gomez, and Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) but not the first one
