      36 chambers, outkast southernplayisticcaddillacfunkymusic, the first chronic, scarface the word is yours, and just so many more ... in my opinion it was the fact that they had to make an album ... sit there and think it out ... release it, tour off of it .. the difference being that today it's all about singles... features ... social media clips and interviews... a lot of Instagram letting your audience see your life outside of the studio trying to prove "your real" ... then there is the industry turning straight satanic in our face factor and weather or not your willing to take on dark ritual to hold down fame ... Jay z from pre blueprint and after are different men ... all artist from the 90s that are still making music today had to make a deal with those who can not be names (#yewasright) ... anyway, the opinion of a 47 year old white boy from Michigan... react to Dayton family ... shoestring ...

    Fun fact: Nas got his famous name 'Nas Escobar' from the Wu-Tang Clan, being that he was the only rapper outside of Wu-Tang to feature on Raekwon's album, a member of the Wu-Tang Clan.
    Wu-Tang Clan, Nas and Mobb Deep all blew up around the same time, and all featured on each others early albums. They were like the hard alternative to Notorious BIG and went on to blow New York hip hop up big time after the West Coast dominated the scene for a few years.
    Redman is a member of Def Squad, but is close to Method Man and his label mate, so they worked a lot together and by default Redman became an honorary member of Wu-Tang Clan, featuring a lot on their most recent album a few years ago.

    The South were equally as big in the 90s. You had Master P and his massive label No Limit Records. You had Scarface and the label he was signed to Rap-A-Lot Records, another massive label from the South, and both labels introduced a large number of rappers to the scene, and dominated the scene so much that after a while both the East and West Coast scene started to adopt that South style for a while

      Equally as big? That's a stretch. You had OutKast and all that making noise in '94 for Atlanta but it wasn't until the late 90s; specifically 1997 that New Orleans became the focal point for the South. Then Cash Money from '99 to the early 2000s but prior to that the East Coast nor the West was checking for Southern rappers other than Scarface and the Geto Boys. But even back then Rap-A-Lot rappers was riding off the coat tails of West Coast emceez with the storytelling rhymes about life on the streets.

      @@p-jaywade1333 100%! At that time the East and West weren't checking for them. But they had their own scene in the south that pretty much became its own economical autonomy, so much so that by the time the likes of Master P did start to get featured on East and West artists albums, he was already a multimillionaire from how his label was a force of its own in the South. This was mid to late 90s. I remember seeing the southern labels pushing their artists with their unique ads in the Source magazine and XXL, but personally I couldn't stomach most of it myself.

  • @donavonhoward1899

    90's hip hop was about creating a cool vibe (sometimes a much darker vibe than most stuff nowadays), not trying to fit as many syllables into each bar as possible. It was about the flow and a memorable groove, not just a beat. They would also have change ups in the song's kind of like a bridge in normal music. There were small progressions in the songs that made them stand out, and memorable to the ear. The beats also sounded a lot more natural like someone was playing a drum kit, whereas now everything is so robotic sounding. Don't get me wrong, lyrically rappers have gotten more complex than ever before, but there is more to hip hop than words and cadences. I wish rappers would focus more on making good songs, not just lyrics and complexity. The flows were a lot smoother in the 90's gangster rap era with a more laid-back style, whereas nowadays rappers are almost yelling the lyrics aggressively to get all of their lyrics out. It's that Nas style on steroids. That works too, but it's different. Back in the 90's it was just about making a good song you could vibe with, period. I miss the different flavors of unique vocal styles, the overall vibe of 90's rap. New school stuff tends to be too hyper, overproduced, and overdone. Everyone copies each other now. It's cool, but I wish some rappers would try to mix in a more old-school style with memorable beats that don't sound like clicky as hell.
