If a girl sings popular music, that doesn’t mean she can’t rock a rock band’s merch, and if she does so, that doesn’t mean she’s got no clue about it. But the patronizing online trolls were eager to prove different when the North Carolina-based TikToker Zaria Joyner pulled off the look in a classic Metallica Ride the Lightning t-shirt.
The musician, who usually performs R&B and soul songs to her 124.7k followers on the platform, was immediately bombarded with comments like “name three songs” and “you don’t really like Metallica.” But Zaria didn’t go astray and accepted the challenge.
The next day, Zaria posted a response video saying “So my response to you guys is, like, really? Only three? Only three songs? How ’bout I play ’em on guitar for you?” She then proceeded by dropping the sickest guitar solo, shredding parts from Metallica’s hits “Master of Puppets,” “Enter Sandman” and “One.”
The video got 467k views, but Zaria didn’t stop there. She posted yet another TikTok of herself practicing Metallica’s “Unforgiven,” and trolls… well, I suppose their melted faces are busy wondering if it’s them who really like Metallica now.
Trolls made fun of Zaria for wearing a Metallica t-shirt and asked her to name 3 of their songs, so she dropped this badass response video

Zaria said her wish was that people would help to spread the word about this whole story so that it would reach Metallica

Now the Tiktoker said her life was complete and she thanked everyone for helping to turn this into reality
