“Hello from Earth! Now music from about 25% of the population and landmass.”
I get that Americans, myself included, Beethoven and Bach are important and influence, but if it’s trying to explain all of humanity, include more stuff from the nations of Africa, Asia, South America, and some stuff from the native people of Australia, New Zealand, Japan and the Americas.
It feels at best stupid to say “this details the best of humanity in a small package” and the best is mostly western.
I do love the “Hello from Earth” in several languages.

I am extremely disappointed Kardi B is not on that list. They should have made a way to remotely update it.

Maybe Megatron can add some Kardi B to the record when he’s inserting his message to the Predacons.
