The top 5 hip hop singles OAT 90-99

[Grand Eeezus Maxwell]

Juvenile - Back That Azz Up

but no

Flava In Ya Ear, Tennessee, The Boomin System or Mama Said Knock You Out?

 

[BmoreGorilla]

I liked the singles. The sing song flow was going to have mainstream appeal.
I get it.
I just couldn't make out everything they were saying so that takes away the most important part for me.
Take Bizzy's verse on Notorious Thugs for example. How you gonna start a verse with "Bing bing bing bing bing and nicotine" :prodigylol:

Yea that was the turnoff for me. I couldn't understand a damn word they were saying

Juvenile - Back That Azz Up

but no

Craig Mack - Flava In Ya Ear?

I feel you breh. A lot of shyt got left off but Back That Azz Up was actually a much bigger song if we keeping it 100. Tbh I think 00-09 gonna be even tougher to narrow down based on the fact there was way more music

90's really gotta be broken down into sections

You need to get in the zone for that.
I suggest getting some hair dye
Might want to cop a few blouses too
