• ... that cover songs were so entrenched in collegiate a cappella that the first album of original music in the genre wasn't published until 2004?
  • ALT1:... that the first album of original collegiate a cappella music wasn't published until 2004?
  • ALT2:... that the first album of original collegiate a cappella music was published in 2004?
  • ALT3:... that the first collegiate a cappella album of original music, published in 2004, was praised as "an exciting new direction for collegiate a cappella"?
  • ALT4:... that collegiate a cappella was so dominated by cover songs that an album of original music wasn't published until 2004?

• Comment: Sources (good for all hooks): (1) "Collegiate a cappella takes popular recordings as its raw material" from Durchan's essay "Collegiate a Cappella: Emulation and Originality" (JSTOR) and (2) "[This album is] an exciting new direction for collegiate a cappella" from critical reviews published by The Recorded A Cappella Review Board.

• Article checks out, contains sourced hook(s). Hooks very interesting (take that, Pitch Perfect 2), and I personally prefer the wording of Alt4. No QPQ needed as it's Shrinkydinks' first DYK nom. Nice to have you! Kingsif (talk) 01:58, 22 December 2019 (UTC)
