What ya'll think of the 90-92 rap era? (88 EC golden age, 93-96 WC golden age)
Duck Duck Doggy:
There's a lot of great hip hop albums from the 80s I've gotten into the last few years that I never appreciated when I was younger. One of my favorites is Slick Ricks album
TraceOneInfinite:
This shit is becoming life changing actually... I've been listening to the same 90-92 shows over and over 3 days st8 and my depression has cleared... I think it's because it was just before my rhyme so I didn't have the chance to play it out yet... shit is hittin hard in my senses
TraceOneInfinite:
- Naughty by Nature was pretty damn big in this era. I always liked their hits (just now figured out what O.P.P. means). But I'm surprised with how talented Treach was and KayG's production skills they should have had a classic album. They have a string of hits, but not that many headz are actually familiar with their albums. They don't even get mentioned much. Eminem started coming out of the woodwork giving Treach all this props and now people are realizing what a great emcee he was; but it should not have taken that.
I think what they were missing was the classic album. Their albums don't seem to have the overall sequencing and theme that could've brought the project together all the way.

Treach is eminems #1 as i know.

Erik Sermon was making a lot of noise in this 90-92 era... see its artists like that who were well respected but I never was too familiar about how they got there.
"Symphony 2" Kool G rap is tremendous on that, everyone on the track is tremendous this one is a banger and I see where Em and Mos def got their ideas for that BET cipher
DJ Quik was making noise
X-Clan doing some really creative stuff visually
And how come this bitch Boss never gets mentioned when female rappers are mentioned? "Deeper" is one of the most bangin joints a female emcee has ever done
...these videos are so well done, I didn't think the budgets were big enough in those days to make music videos this dope—whoever was doing the directing in these days really earned their paycheck and furthered the vision of the artists
