You know, he's young, so he's been in a game for a minute.

Justin Bieber is putting out some good stuff."

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪
- (Finebros) How well are you able to keep up with music like this
as it comes out? - You know, before I adopted my son
I wouldn't have known any popular music.
- They always like to control the radio in my car.
They like to use the AUX, and put it in their phone,
and, "Listen to this, dad!"
- A woman of a certain age is not necessarily like,
(gushing) "I love Justin Bieber! He's so good!"
Except for I am, because I have kids.
- Me, as other person, I have so many things to do
with the chores, the house, the kids, work,
so you cannot keep up with the music.
I'm more into the '80s. The '80s, for me, is the best.
- I'm still stuck listening to '80s and '90s music.
Now they're talking about how many hoes they got,
and how much money they got,
and, no, they ain't got no damn money or hoes,
but I guess they just feel like it's a good thing to talk about.
So... whatever.
