She also mentioned Queen and how popular rap music became with people like Snoop Dogg, NWA etc. ]]> 2023-02-05 04:41:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ihatcher4/9exy4q3n7xjshfut/wish/2468758360 ihatcher4 https://padlet.com/ihatcher4/9exy4q3n7xjshfut/wish/2468758448 popular dance]]> 2023-02-05 04:41:52 UTC https://padlet.com/ihatcher4/9exy4q3n7xjshfut/wish/2468758448 ihatcher4 https://padlet.com/ihatcher4/9exy4q3n7xjshfut/wish/2468759907 Another thing that my grandmother mentioned was how much she looked up to Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
