Public Enemy - Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

I've had this album for like 6 years, and a few months ago I banged it out for the first time in like a year & I've been bumping it daily.

golden age is from 88 tilll.....92! cauz hip-hop became mainstream in that period of time, AND the sub-genres of hip-hop devoleped back then

Life Is Too $hort
The Great Adventures Of Slick Rick
Long Live The Kane

Also my list homie...(Good ear)
But if "The D.O.C." had came out in 88' instead of the following year...
It would have been my #1 pick outta the bunch.

1988 isnt the golden age fools, i explained this beofore lol

for the slow ones:


the golden age is the period in hip-hop that rap-music got commercial succes and that the subgenres devolepped

1986 till 1992
^^^^^^thats the golden age
1988 is just 1 year during the golden age

(i prolly sounded cocky like fuck in this post lol, im sorry)

^^ You have some points, but 1988 is widely considered to be the Golden Age of Hip-Hop.

The Golden Age high was 1988, with 1994 being the kick off of the New York Revival. In both case, they were the hights of hip-hop years. But the Golden Age is 1987-1992. There's a different between age and year.

Favorite album from 1988, hum... Great Adventure of Slick Rick... or maybe Straight Outta Compton. Both i love.
