    The vibe in the 90's was just magical, before social media, before 99% of people even had mobile phones, Before you could google anything, the world was still such a mysterious place, every day was a new adventure, everybody had their own unique style and vibe since nobody was copying what they seen on social media everybody was more creative and less influenced it was so pure, going to a new area or city truly was an adventure you never knew what kind of people you would meet or places you would see, Your homie would give you a tape with new artists you never heard of, you had no idea who it was but it sounded fire, Nowdays with social media, smart phones and google, the world is now so small, that sense of adventure and mystery is no more, most people are sheep, and every city you go to everybody walks talks and looks the same. I feel blessed to have grew up in the 90's, The feeling and vibe was truly something else.

      You pretty much summed up what I don't like about living in the current era. Every part world is getting more and more the same, and doesn't feel magical, exciting and mysterious like it used to. I was born in 2003 so it's hard for me to say what life was really like back in the day, but just from comparing the music and other media from now and the 90s it seems like life just had a completely different vibe.

      Cuz the main tone of all these beats is 432hz. This frequency is actually connected to the divine being aka our collective consciousness. Nowadays most of the trap and mumbling rap shit you here and other genres as well use 440hz to tune their instruments. It's actually a very sinister frequency that only weakens your consciousness.

      @@tobik.2849 Do you mean right now or all time? Off the top of my head you have a lot of artists who went "mainstream" while staying true to their style and produced hit after hit like 50 cent and Kanye. The difference is that they pioneered entire new eras with innovation that changed the game rather than just re-creating something that already existed like most boom-bap rappers did. 808s & Heartbreak literally changed the entire course of the rap game, and I can't really think of a 90s album that had such an impact. Sure 36 Chambers, Ready to Die, Illmatic and Midnight Marauders were instant classics, but in terms of impact there is not really a competition imo.

      Morir al lado de mí amor

      Otra vuelta pulpero
      Triunfo

      Kind of weird that the 1890s was also the Golden Era of the last century, though the first decade of the 20th century....and then came an upheaval that turned the world more shitty and destroyed the dream and changed everything forever. WW1 happened and ruined the Golden Age. So what catastrophe is due now 100 years later? Somehow I doubt COVID is enough yet. Or maybe it's just a general kind of nosedive we have already begun.

      @@romedramazone That's my point. They are few and far between and aren't pushed into the mainstream; they are virtually invisible to the public eye and are no longer considered "the norm" when it comes to today's hip-hop music. We should not have to dig to find this kind of hip-hop being produced today...But thanks for dropping at least one artist though.

      You had mainstream hip hop back then too, it was no different than other popular music, and the studios have been dictating to the artists since day one. This is different because it's small independent artists, but you had the same in every genre. The studios only dictate to you when you are big enough for them to pay attention to you. And since back then you only could become famous with a studio contract, it went both ways. Now you can release your own stuff to a wider audience, if you can get anyone to notice you.

    Other than Mad Vibes, I never heard of a single one of these artists and grew up always searching the fringes of 90s rap - Black Attack, Arsonists, Visionaries, etc. What an unbelievable compilation. Much appreciation and thanks.

    This whole mix reminds me of working on my uncles Volkswagen in the winter when I was younger. We always use to work on his car in the cold garage listening to his cassette tape boombox. Me and my boy were parting out his Honda last winter in my garage listening to this mix and it brought me back hard to those times with my uncle. Love this mix. Let’s knock and stop worrying about all this bullshit we have today
