You say pop, I say rock

u say Justin Bieber, I say Skillet u say Bruno Mars, I say Five Finger Death Punch u say Lady Gaga, I say Breaking Benjamin u say Miley Cyrus, I say Evanescence u say T-Pain, I say Three Days Grace u say Rebecca Black, I say Linkin Park u say Daft Punk, I say Green Day u say Flowers, I say Nine Lashes 92 percent of teens have turned to pop and hip-hop. If you are a part of the 8 percent that still listens to real music, copy and paste this message to 5 other videos. DON’T LET ROCK DIE!

A fake social-media comment contrasts mainstream pop and hip-hop artists with rock and metal bands. The exaggerated claim that only 8 percent of teens listen to “real music,” followed by a chain-message request, parodies elitist rock fans and old internet copypasta. It is sent as an ironic reaction to music debates or nostalgia for early-2010s rock culture.
