About

Video Killed the Radio Star refers to a series of object labeling image macros which reference the 1979 pop song "Video Killed the Radio Star" by The Buggles. The image macros generally show two people, one labeled "video" and the other, often a celebrity with a highly-publicized death, is labeled "radio star," implying that the first literally killed the other.

The Child Coin

Whoever launches this meme first creates its one official child coin of $MEME. The child coin takes this exact image, is priced in $MEME, and pays 1% of its every trade to its holders, in $MEME. After that, the meme is closed here forever.
