I assume it’s just an example of how to create new topical words since it’s a lot easier to name an album than to get a word well-known enough to be eligible for the dictionary.
The artists all seem to be big names so I assume it’s their popularity rather than any history of quirky album names that’s decided the list.
I assumed it was because those musicians are popular enough that even if they released songs/albums with the title scheme akin to svnahshfhfbduj people would still buy them and know about them.
But why references to musicians?
These specific musicians are referenced a lot by crosswords. NYT loves them, at least. Very “hip and with it”.
It’s kinda an inside joke, but that’s XKCD for ya.
Thanks, that’s what I needed
