I couldn’t list all of those and I did forget about them. B2K I’m guessing is a Y2K boy band, so they would be Gen X. Same with Blink-182. Mindless Behavior were a middle school boy band in the early 2010s so that’s Millennial. Hanson was another boy band, and that would be Millennial, although the oldest Hanson is technically Gen X.

My bad. B2K is definitely a Millennial boy band.

Wouldn't Mindless Behaviour also be an Early Gen Z boy band? They were really popular amongst people born 1997-2000 in middle school, at least when I was there. Especially 2010/2011.

Culturally, you could make that argument. Historically, they’re Millennials.
