I disagree.
90's were the best age for hip hop.


It was the best age for mainstream Hip-Hop

So what your saying is underground Hip Hop is better now than in the 90's, I don't agree. More real Hip Hop fans are moving to underground artists because mainstream Hip Hop is dead, or close to it. The 90's as a whole>>> 2000's imo. Also we live in an internet age where more underground artists can be heard, there was plenty of dope underground mc's in the 90's who a lot of people probably haven't even heard of. I'm not saying there aren't any great lyricists anymore just not nearly as many. People like Soulja Boy, Gucci, Chingy, MIMs, wouldn't have had careers if they came through in the 90's.

Yes underground rap now is better then all of hip-hop in the 90's. Beats have gotten WAY better, the quality has gotten better, lyrics have gotten better. I don't even listen to 90's music anymore.

Ok, it's your opinion but I'll bet you anything if you ask anyone 20 or older nine out of ten will say the 90's. There's only 3 artists in the 2000's that would even have a chance at cracking a top 10 list of greatest rappers (Nas, Em, Jay). Tell me one rapper who spits like Big L, Big Pun, early Eminem? I'm talking underground or elsewhere. Most of the great lyricists of the 90's make today's up-and comers like J Cole or Drake look like amateurs.

Hip hop was still pretty good in the 2000's, but nothing compared to what it was in the 90's, in my opinion of course. Sure I've noticed that most of the main rappers of the last decade where out in the 90's anyway (Jay-Z, Eminem, Nas, Ghostface, MF DOOM, even Jedi Mind Tricks)

I mean come on, back in 1993 Enter The Wu and Midnight Marauders dropped on the same DAY, a week later Enta Da Stage dropped - thats 3 of the best hip hop albums ever released dropping within a week of eachother - you'd never get that nowadays, to me there hasn't been a classic rap album released in the last 4 years - and thats being kind

I'd also say underground rap was better in the 90's too - Illmatic was underground for fuck sake! Underground hip hop is boring and stale nowadays, everybody is doing the same thing - back then it had creativity, plus production wise most underground rap albums these days have shit production - give me RZA at his best, Primo at his best, Dre at his best, Pete Rock at his best over anybody producing right now - actually I can guarentee that Celph Titled's new album will have some of the best beats this year on it, why? Because he's using unreleased 1990's beats produced by Buckwild

I love 90s Hip Hop, it just can't get any better than that, there are too many classics which if I name I don't even know where to start.
