(May 1, 2025). Welcome to May and the sixth edition of Music Jeopardy! The blog provides the clues, you provide the responses AND figure out the mystery category to which they all belong.
But this one comes with a slight twist. Since the category will be easy to figure out given this week’s big headline about a musical institution we either love or love to hate, your challenge is to come up with the wittiest, funniest, and most concise category title — one that Ken Jennings would be proud to read from the real Jeopardy! board. All entries will be acknowledged, but the best one will win the prize, which is absolutely nothing but bragging rights.
Below this puzzle’s clues are the results of Music Jeopardy 5. But first, here are your six clues for today’s post:
Clue 1:
Clue 2:
Clue 3:
Clue 4:
Clue 5:
Clue 6:
Figured it all out? Provide your responses in the “Your Thoughts” field below or DM me on social media platforms where this is posted. If you play spoiler and provide a public response, that’s fine. I just won’t confirm the answers there until the next Music Jeopardy is posted. Remember, be witty and funny in coming up with this easy af category name! Have fun and good luck!
