How to impress the older generation with your music tastes
I am actually a fan of most of these bands and artists, but especially Queen. You can share these playlists by sharing your audio during zoom calls amongst people who are not Millennial or Gen Z. I am not implying that all music made in the 21st century is trash; I actually enjoy listening to them. If you find that Boomers aren't willing to listen to your ideas because you are a "Gen Z" and are "overly sensitive", playing this playlist will most likely soothe them. This playlist might also restore their faith in our generation.

Which is probably why metal bands with black leads, especially those originating in Africa are almost never spoken of. It's quite ironic because rock n roll was pioneered by black people, Chuck Berry and Little Richard to name a few. Which then eventually lead to the creation of heavy metal. Though the metal scene in Africa is small, it thrives nevertheless. Here are 10 African Metal Bands you should check out.
