Hip-hop tops today’s music charts, but classic rock rules the movie houses.
A rock ’n’ roll wave has crashed into theaters in the wake of last year’s blockbusting “Bohemian Rhapsody,” the Freddie Mercury/Queen biopic that earned north of $900 million globally and won Rami Malek the Oscar for best actor. The Elton John fantasy biopic “Rocketman” has snared a respectable $185 million worldwide this year.
“Yesterday” — the “what if nobody remembered the Beatles” reverie — has become a certified summer sleeper, earning $67 million at the U.S. box office, and the Bruce Springsteen-inspired “Blinded by the Light,” which opens next week, shows that Hollywood can’t get enough rock.

You are so right 3:27, there is no talent in rap, just a bunch of rhyming words with a background beat. Country music artist are even trying to incorporate it in their alblums. Us baby boomers grew up in the best of times for music. I only listen to classic rock on the radio now.
