During a recent interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live, breakout alternative singer Billie Eilish answered a series of questions about legendary musical acts she may or may not be familiar with at the tender age of 17. Eilish caused an uproar with fans of Van Halen when she said she did not know of the multi-platinum rock band who were inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2017.
Wolfgang Van Halen who is the song of Eddie Van Halen and has been playing in the band for years now, came to Eilish’s defense.
If you haven’t heard of @billieeilish, go check her out. She’s cool. If you haven’t heard of @VanHalen, go check them out. They’re cool too.
Music is supposed to bring us together, not divide us. Listen to what you want and don’t shame others for not knowing what you like.

Yeah shaming someone for something they don’t know is just dumb. Something not dumb was the session Billie gave us in the Lounge.
