mtvU surprises Penn class!

What happens when mtvU brings author Malcolm Gladwell (Blink, The Tipping Point) and musician Kenna to a Penn Sociology of Media and Popular Culture class?

Watch the video above to find out!

These 2 come to the class as a surprise after the class had studied Gladwell’s novel Blink.

Per Malcolm, the musician Kenna (whom I never heard of) is an example of someone who causes much “enthusiasm in the music industry yet hasn’t made it in the mainstream music world.”

I don’t know who’s more surprised.. the kids in this video or me because there’s a Penn Sociology of Media and Popular Culture class. I only hope that they’ve moved onto Britney by now.
