[bangedher_wholesquad]

lol, you really think you're special when people of the generation right before could spit that exact same nonsense word for word.

show me the charts then.

and show me 50 urban songs that will be top 100 this year.

success means everything to you young dudes. yet u r going to lose this battle.

plus in 96 i was 11. can't really say i grew up in that era.

 

[???]

GTFOH, the music in 2013 is way better than that crappy year of music.

the artists today have way more freedom now and the music is very enjoyable.

the money is very good and let's not talk about the fanbase which are definitely more loyal in today's high tech superior age.

throw this thread in the bushes.

music today is better, you are wrong. that 1996 list is garbage.

the videos today on vevo are way better than michael jackson, missy elliot and busta rhymes videos combined DUH.

seems like the music scene was just as crusty as it is now, if not more so.

Some things never change

Music in your day is always better for you simpletons. Doesn't matter if you're old or young, you're the same kind of morons.

shut the fukk up! stop bytching and enjoy the music moron.

love and hiphop, basketball wives, real housewives are all better than martin, fresh prince, family matters and all that corny crap you old fools watched in the 90s.

we are in a vastly superior internet age, everything right now is better baby.

get with the program son, deal with it.

Not one song on that list sounds just a like either.

 

[Chelsea Bridge]

I had about 97% of those songs excluding the Macarena.

Jewel and Alanis were my go to white girl singers.

We may be

speak for yourself...I was 14 in 96 and Im 100% sure Im in the prime of my life for this decade

I don't know if music was "better" back then.

I do think that nostalgia tends to look at the truth through rose-coloured glasses.

A lot of the music we love is connected to certain feelings and experiences. And you're feeling and experiencing a lot of things during puberty and your early adulthood. I think that's why it seems like a lot of people's favorite music of their lives seems to come from that era of their lives.

For me was the early 90s to the early 2000s. Though I really identify with a lot of late 70s and early 80s Punk/Post-punk.

I mean if you're 35, chances are you don't really hold up the Drakes and Taylor Swifts right up there with your Nirvanas and Alanis Morrisettes.
And if you're 45, you probably preferred Madonna and Michael Jackson to Nirvana and Alanis Morisette. Or something like that.

 

[Ezigbo Nwanyi]

Lol at me knowing every song on that top 100. R&B that charted higher than pop and Celine Dion. Would never see this again

6 star thread ..... more years .....

This was an interesting year for another reason.... cause that Blackstreet song "No Diggity" was probably the last hit they had, which meant the end of New Jack Swing..................but near starting point for Outkast and Busta Rhymes
