It's rather obvious isn't it? Those songs have become popular enough that they have transcended hip hop into the pop genre. You really expect the average music listener to be listening to Dr. Dre or Nas? LMAO. What song are you more likely to hear at a party? Matter of fact I heard U Can't Touch This just the other day at a fair.The biggest hip hop records have ALWAYS been the more poppier records. You just realizing this now?

People who don't listen to hip hop probably wouldn't know of those songs. But everyone and their mama would know of U Can't Touch This, either through hearing it at a party or seeing it in a movie, etc. Like I said, I just heard it the other day at this fair. Those songs aren't even on the same level as far as exposure in pop culture. You're only 17 right? The majority of kids your age have no fucking clue about any of those songs you mentioned, except maybe California Love because you can still hear that song once in a while. I haven't heard Still Dre on the radio (or anywhere else for that matter) for 10 years

Hip hop 101? I go to a college and most of the people here don't know of those songs. I felt so proud this summer because I finally met a chick who knew about 90s rap. Its a dead genre among the younger generation.

That would certainly explain why the majority of the people on this site are from there. Gangsta rap is practically dead here.Anyway, in America, U Can't Touch This and Ice Ice Baby were big enough pop hits where they became cultural references. Gangsta rap songs typically do not.
