[edit]

I am a Baby Boomer, born and raised in NYC (1951), and about the last thing Monti Rock was is a 'teen idol'. That's wishful thinking. He was more popular with my parents' generation than anyone my age. My parents had his records; my friends and I heard them and thought Rock's music was amateurishly awful. Rock's overtly sexual style was embarassingly goofy.

Name Checked?

[edit]

By "name checked" can we assume the writer is making an inarticulate yet trendy attempt at informing the reader that the name of the band was mentioned in the lyrics of another song? Why not just use standard English in place of cutting-edge teen babble? A real encyclopedia would have an editorial board ensuring a minimally acceptable standard of language for every entry. Wekepedia struggles to maintain a very low consistency. Yet another reason why Wikipedia is not a real encyclopedia. -- 02:46, 10 March 2012‎ 76.254.69.101

I think it's more entertainment jargon (Stix Nix Hix Pix) rather than "teen babble"... AnonMoos (talk) 05:59, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
