“You know what I hate? It’s when older people try to make you feel bad about being young,” she said. “Like, they’ll be having this lit ass conversation and s**t about, you know what I’m saying, what they used to do, and they’ll get to talking about Rick James first album he ever put out. Then get mad at me ’cause I don’t know the name of it.”
The “Tomorrow 2” rapper persisted, “B***h, that album was put out in 1970—g**damn, I don’t know when. B***h, I was born in 1999. ‘Oh, yeah, y’all too young. Y’all don’t know nothing about nothing. Only thing y’all know about is iPhones and Instagram.’ B***h, how can I help that I was born in ’99? Why is you mad ’cause I was born…b***h, I wasn’t [there] back then. Them not my times.”
A few commenters agreed with Glorilla, while others claimed they’re a part of the younger generation but seasoned with the “oldies” thanks to their mamas waking them up and cleaning on the weekends.
“Nah, this new generation just uneducated. I was born in 1989, our Saturday was cleaning, and we learned all the oldies. This new generation just lack substance.”
“But why would we research Rick James? Lol.”
“This older generation used to school us. These new grandmas and aunties don’t pass nothing on. Not even recipes. Bring back the ’80s grandmas.”
“Girl, that’s a right of passage. Little do you know, you gone be doing the same thing in about 30 years.”
“Okay! That ish agg asf baby. I’m only 24. I don’t know about all that ish that happened before I was even thought of, Chile.”
“Knowledge and Google is literally free. Use it.”
