Not a terrible list...

Didn't convince ME, but could be worse.
Don’t get me wrong breh I Love the 90s especially hip hop, I just feel like it got better in the 2000s (as it should)

I don’t feel like it started digressing till around 2007 and it jumped the shark around 2012 other than some gems here and there

Being a 90s baby, this is so disturbing to think about. An entire era of music, clothing, tv, film, ways of life. It's all gone. It's as if it were a different planet. I think back on those days and it makes me sick to my stomach. Nostalgia isn't the word. There must be some stronger feeling of lost and remembrance most potent than nostalgia.

I feel like I'm lost. Stuck in the wrong time. Time is moving too fast and I wish it would slow down.

I'm gonna leave it alone after this.

There are arguably single years in the 90s where the releases are superior to this whole spread.

I remember traveling from Boston and New York and heading down South to visit my cousins in the A in the 90s.

I mind as well have gotten off of a space ship. We were at least 5 to 10 years ahead of them in trends (sorry my southern brehs...but that's just FACTS).

Now with the internet style is homogenous. Everyone looks the same. Kids on Tiktok dress the same as your average Coli breh.

That's what's hilarious about southerners making fun of NY'ers. If it wasn't for the internet ya'll would still be in the dark ages waiting on that cousin to put you on to what's poppin.
This bullshyt is so not true.

It was long ago. What’s crazy is a lot of footage, etc from the 90s still looks good today.

Those are videos from 98/99, I think there was a big shift in like 97/98 in terms of fashion and technology that carried over into the early 2000's, that's why they still look modern. Because if you look at videos from the early to mid 90's they look completely different.

Yeah but it’s still crazy to think that era was 25 years ago.

The 90s were a long time ago...but folks are still talking about them cause they were just that damn good.
:manny:
I'm an 80s baby and no one really talks about the 80s like that anymore.
The 90s set the tone for the 2000s...and therefore the 21st century and the millenium.

I saw a post about the That 70s show being released in 1998 and how thats the equivalent of a that 90s show being released today.
