This isn't surprising though: if this 18 yr old wasn't a hip-hop head, she could have lived her whole life and never heard of MPMD or Erick Sermon.

I don't expect the average 20 year old to know who Prince was anymore than I expect the average 30 yr old to know who Sly Stone is. If they're a music person - and a music person who actually goes back to older stuff - and don't know who Prince/Sly is, _then_ there's an issue.
