I actually enjoyed 1997 to 00 (Of course it wasn’t comparable to the previous years) I also enjoyed early 2000s R&B and hip hop. shyt literally went left in 2008 imo

Anyone who doesn't like 2000s r&b is buggin. Esp early 2000s (2000-03/04).

With that said, I do also believe that 2008 was the turning point for not just R&B, but music as we know it in general.

Tbh I don't even really consider 08-09 as part of the 00s, l but that's a whole different topic itself.

Last great year for music. Everything was downhill after that.

I'd say 1998 was the last great year of music.

I was watching the Grammys 1996 Awards… wow, was the competition stacked. Compare that to the Grammys of the last 15 years.



From the performances to the nominees and winners. Today’s era can’t hold a candle.
