The poster said that the average hip hop fan would know who Ice Cube is. Hip Hop is a genre that specifically targets children and especially in that age range so we can not forget about the youth. I didn't say it was impossible but it is very unlikely a 13 year old would know the impact of artists that were before their time.
I am not going to expect a 10 year old to know about Slick Rick, Krs One, Wu Tang, NWA, etc these are rappers way before their time (10-20 year gaps) Unless you had parents that were bumping this type of music in your childhood
