90's Hip Hop - A Decade of Sharpness - Part 1

So I've decided to incorporate something regular on my blog... A tribute (if you will).. to the 90's Hip Hop era... when hip hop was truely great... an era I miss.. While there is still some good hip hop music today... it seems as though we have to dig deeper to find it... the 90's was an era when lyrics meant something, when rappers actually talked about something substantial... So lets start with 1990...

Don't You Hate That??

I'm always intrigued when I figure out that a hip-hop beat was sampled from an old song. Like when D-Dot sampled 'Let Your Hair Down' by Yvonne Fair for Jay'Z 'Where I'm From'... But I really hate when this happens....



Come On Diddy... Singin? ... Now if you had rhymes sharper than Jay (especially on this track) you'd get a pass... but you just made me sick to my stomach with this!!

RIP Saigon's Mom

The beat on this track is HOTTT!!!
