Yep those are barely dressed ladies on the bar!

I ended up checking out this beautiful work:

Career Day With A Lil’Auto-Tune

So…during my interesting adventure contributing to Career Day at Redan High, one student told me that he listens to old school music. I asked, “like what?”

His reply was “Eminem.”

Whoa…

Well, what’s old to him is old to him. I had to quickly remember that he was in the 11th grade, it wasn’t Music History Day, and I only had 25-30 minutes with each class. Out of all the students, only one mentioned Silk, 112, and some 90′s R&B. However, the students did know of Quincy Jones. Somehow, Jones penetrated the minds of teenagers heavily devoted to Lil’Wayne, Drake, and Wiz Khalifa. I didn’t understand how Eminem was old but Lil’Wayne wasn’t…looking at when each started their careers.
