Poll: Old People Review Today’s Music – Awesome or Crazy?

Remember when you were a teenager and you wanted to listen to music you liked in the car, but your parents absolutely vetoed that option? Parents are so uncool. Well, get a load of this! Three elderly residents of Fishtown, Philadelphia have created a show where they review music of today’s generation (The Thermals, Joanna Newsom, The Decemberists, Clipse, and more) at a diner called Sulimay’s, thus giving their series the title “Breakfast at Sulimay’s.” In this clip, they review Young Jeezy and Animal Collective and I can’t decide if it’s hilarious or completely insane. You may be surprised at Ann approving the rapper, as she points out the “intro” and “assassination” components, yet displaying her distaste for repetitious electronic riffs. Highlights are Joe’s implication of Young Jeezy’s “Black Dreams” putting shame to the African American race and his blatant plug for Girl Scout Cookies as they introduce Animal Collective’s “My Girls.” Watch the clip for yourself, and tell us what you think!
