    True. Them white kids eat that shit up. Seen that shit, myself. More white kids fuck with Gucci and company than blacks.

    listened to her outside of her radio hits, but damn if the radio hits weren't the jams, man. And Timbo was making some sick shit back then.

    She was legendary.

    Gorgeous and extremely talented.


    That whole Mid 90s music era was poppin. I loved growing up in that era.



    Once Napster came along...

    money is money to them, lol. I dont really mess with new hip hop or anything. I'd rather listen to alternative rock stations now. I still get down with Jigga tho. He hasn't really changed his style and he made that 'death of autotune' shit. he came from an era when real rappers battled n' spit and killed each other lyrically.

    :eek:
     
  6. Then you came of age in the 90's like me. Back then we had Jodeci, Silk, Jagged Edge. I lost my V-Card to a 112 song. And even Brandi and Monica we're doing there thing back then. I think the problem was once the corporations realized that both Hip-Hop and R&B we're no longer fringe culture and the mainstream america was loving it, they pulled it into the Pop circle and watered it down. Even Bobby Valentino says R&B is dead right now.

    Same here. These songs were my shit in 1st second and 3rd grade.


    After the songs stopped coming on, I didn't hear them for years until I started downloading hell music. You know that feeling you get when you hear a song you ain't heard since elementary?
