Being born in the early 1980s. Being a teen in the 90s was the best. You probably had a chance to so dance.

You graduated around 99/00, you enter the world at the beginning of the Internet boom. If you choose the IT field, you're probably making 100k+ easily.

And you survive the crack epidemic. You saw the real world before everyone had cells and cameras. We were free in the 90s. Kappa beach party and Mardi gras w/o camera. Black College Reunion!

The 1990 were a time of prosperity in the hood. Anyone could sell dope and come up. The police didn't have the game locked down. Snitching was a death sentence.

If you were in High school between 96-01, you're a trill azz G in my book.

You remember 2pac, All Eyes on Me, Makaveli and the madness around the whole Machiavelli thing. After Pac and BIG died, rappers on every coast stepped it up. Amazing music. R&B is on fire. Slow dancing at parties was very in. BET rapcity was the truth. Source and Vibe were great reads.

Jordan came back. Iverson and Kobe came in. Nolimit and Cashmoney Blew!!! Great times to be a teen.

EASTBAY was the Bible!!!
