NBA 2K23 Music Trivia: Erick's Vinyl Answers
Aside from the "It's a Cole World" main questline, the music trivia questions are part of the recurring Personal Brand questline, "Music Trivia," which players receive a bit into the Next Gen MyCAREER mode.
The way the Music Trivia works is Marvin will ask the player a set of three questions. While the set of questions is randomized, the questions within the set will be ordered the same, so once Marvin asks the first question, you can quickly figure out what the next two will be.
