also, re " how can you know anything about pop culture but now know about Kanye West?" you're mid-20s @sonyaellenmann ?
As hard as it is to believe, almost everyone stops following pop culture around age 30.
You say "not me - I LOVE new music".
But...EVERYONE says that.

You get married. You have kids. You get dogs. You've gotta clean the gutters, take the car to the dealer, attend the PTA meetings, work on your book, check in on your parents who are getting older. ...and YOU'RE getting older. Surplus energy declines, heading towards zero.

You finish a long day's work and you don't have the energy to deal with NEW music. You just want to relax. So you put on some of the music that WAS new...when you were 25. /shrug

i don't think it's just fatigue or distraction, there's more to it. it seems to me that every generation thinks what they heard up through their 20s is awesome, and everything that follows is unlistenable garbage. something to do with brain / identity development, maybe?

yeah, totally - any year when there was cool music coming out, almost no one was listening to it, the charts are always filled with garbage.
