1995. I remember mighty morphin power rangers the movie. Method man all i need. Chester by dane, Casper, bad boys, watching new york undercover. Nickelodeon all that. and seing the movie friday
2Pac's "Me Against The World, , Mobb Deep "The Infamous", Bone's "East 1999: Eternal" & Raekwon's "Only Built 4 Cuban Linx" are alone 4 of the greatest 100 Hip-Hop albums of all time!! And with AZ's debut album, Kool G Rap's first solo & KRS One's self titled album, '95 makes a strong case for greatest year in Hip-Hop History.
Mystikal released his 1st album "Mind of Mystikal" in 95 on a very hot local independent label. In my opinion both 95 and 96 were the apex of hip hop together.
Glad that the year of 95 could get these highlights that may have been forgotten or even unheard of but it was definitely a incredible year for that era in rap
I knew 95 was a classic hip hop year but not to this degree... thanks for the lesson! The somewhat underrated and overlooked 94 is still my top pick but I don't think we've ever had 3 amazing hip hop years in a row like 94-95-96. 97 and 98 were hot to.
I enjoy watching your TH-cam videos because it helps me build up my CD collection a little bit better two fingers in the air definitely for 95 that was my year and the reason why is I used to read a lot of Spawn comics I used to listen to az at the same time
@@each1teach1academy43 they were more important to the overall improvement I just like the music in those years better but 88 and 94 are hard to argue against
My Favorites From 95 Are 1. Raekwon Only Built 4 Cuban Linx 2. 2Pac Me Against The World 3. Bone - Thugs - N- Harmony E.1999 Eternal 4. Mobb Deep The Infamous 5. GZA Liquid Swords 6. Brotha Lynch Hung Season Of Da Siccness 7. Goodie Mob Soul Food 8. E-40 In A Major Way 9. The Dogg Pound Dogg Food 10. Ol Dirty Bastard Return Of The 36 Chambers 11. Naughty By Nature Poverty’s Paradise 12. Luniz Operation Stackola ETC.
That CJ Mac was dope , I was 10, but I had a older bro n sis n older cousins we use to play the Sega why most of these albums played, the 90s the best era
I think you can’t name 95 as the best year alone. You even left out classics like Blahzay Blahzay, Das Efx, Smooth Da Hustler& Trigger Tha Gambler, Lunix, Onyx, Group Home’s livin’ proof album. 96 was also hot with Lost Boys, Jay Z’s debut album, Jeru Tha Damaja,All eyes on me, Busta’s debut album which was a classic. 97 with Big’s Life after death, 98 with DMX, 99 with Beanie Sigel debut album So for me it’s from 94 to 2000. It can’t be a single year. I think the end of the last century brought the best out of Rap music
You forgot about Top Authority 2nd album, Rated G, it was controversial for those 2 albums to come about at the same time with the same Title but so G back then...
There were a lot of good years of hiphop in the 1990's but 1988 was too powerful. You had to be there to understand how many classic hiphop albums came out that year.
Even the 3rd and 4th tier rappers were bananas in 88. Rap was so fresh and all the areas on the map started checking in with their own unique flavors...88 was peak creativity and originality, bar none
Can't argue against those at all. My top 2 were pac and on top of the world by 8ball and mjg. I know a lot of people will disagree on that but that ball and g was on steroids
Albums in 95: Me against the world - Pac Only built for Cuban linx - Raekwon The infamous - mobb deep Liquid swords - gza The score - the fugees Doe or die - Az Lifestyles of the poor and dangerous - Big L Eternal - Bone thugs 4,5,6 - Kool G rap Redman - Dare is dark side 95 was magical
The roots Wu tang NAS Mobb deep DJ quick E 40 Common The roots Gang Starr Ghetto boys Dungeon family Lost boys Jeru da damaja And I could go on and on but this is a testimony of how that whole decade was full of talents from all parts of the map
As someone who was involved in the business and around a bunch of those artist (I appeared on the stretch and bobbito show 11/11/93 as force of one) during the years of 91 to 95 I watched people compromise their true persona to play pretend thug/gangster because that's what the record companies were looking for. E 40 in an appearence on the Arsenio Hall Show admitted that what he was doing was an act and he was playing pretend. That's an example of what most of the general public was caught up in. They used the music to mess with your mind, divide and isolate as a form of mind control. That's what that rap music in 95 was used for.
That's exactly what it turned into there's very little you can learn from a song unlike in the earlier days. I learned about a lot hearing named and events then researching them
1995 was MAGIC - these names being dropped in this video sound like when the all star game roster gets announced, 95, is the gold medal, 96 is the close silver medal, 1994 and 1997 tie for the bronze medal - crazy thing about Tupac I didnt even consider until maybe a year ago is that he made Me Against the World in 94 cause the shooting was Nov 30 1994 then court then jail and NO studio till it dropped, so in 1994 he made Thug Life & Me Against the World, and in 1996 he did AEOM & Makaveli, plus countless on the Makaveli bootleg leaks, so that's 2 classic albums in each 94 and in 96, although lot of AEOM was made in late 95 after the October release from prison, if he wasn't locked up in 95 he probably woulda had 2 or 3 more albums at the start of his prime or group projects - Ayana Jackson changed the history of music & countless lives, she might be a true undercover witch from another dimension and should go down in history, if you're watching this about 95 hip hop you probably know the history of what Im saying and I hope you agree
I didn't think about that you're right I didn't think about him writing 2 classics a year except 96. He was really in a zone like nobody else for that 3 year period that year stolen probably would have been aeom and makaveli and maybe 96 would have been some mind blowing stuff.
Overall, 1995 was in my opinion the most competitive year for hip hop in the 90s, especially eastcoast and westcoast. Not to mention other relased/unreleased albums like: Wrap your lips around this (Agallah 8 off) Chastisement (sir jinx) (Incidents) 1995 debut album Your entertainment my reality (poppa lq) (La Nash) debut album 1995 The real (Watts gangsters) Ghetto life (I smooth 7) Gumbo roots (Dj battlecat) True blue lll (N.O.T.S.)

The south played a big part in hip hop. I'm from St Louis and we listened to a lot of southern rap back then and still do. Different regions have different opinions but we just can't throw away the south like they weren't there that's what they were complaining about the discrimination.
@@dredocs Not in 1995 though only in 1998 when the South became recognized because remember in 1995 it was all about the East Coast and the West Coast but the West Coast rappers had all the fame while the majority of the East Coast rappers weren't known in the commerical level.
@@jasonpalacios2705 that's probably how it was on the east and west coast but it wasn't like that in the south and Midwest these dudes all had names and followings.
@@dredocs But the South wasn't so known in 1995 no matter how you put it except for Outkast and the Goodie Mob but the South became known in 1998/1999.
@jasonpalacios2705 Who cares when it became "known"? There were still hit albums and records even if the major distributors were late. You might not have heard it but the south and midwest did.
The Telecommunications Act of 1996 was the downfall of popular music in general. So yeah, you're probably right. Or at least '95 was the last pure year in Hip Hop before things started getting stupid. No autotune, no stupid gimmicks or mumble rap. Everybody wasn't on various codeine preparations sounding constipated like Master P ("Uuuuunhhh!").
95 and 96 was the best era hands down but 95 Definitely released some classics
Born in 1997 but omg i couldn't imagine going to high school and just be jamming to all those albums.
It was a great time. I was in highschool during this time and it brings back great memories.
What a time to be alive💯💯🫡

This year was stacked. 90s in full swing them boys must’ve known it they was making history
Mystikal released his 1st album "Mind of Mystikal" in 95 on a very hot local independent label. In my opinion both 95 and 96 were the apex of hip hop together.
Even the underground was 🔥 CBO, Tales From The Hood Soundtrack, Brotha Lynch, Coolio , Spice 1, Tru , Dogg Pound,
ODB
I always say from '95-'99 was the best years in music history! Thanks for bringing us back.
It was the best period thanks you
Glad that the year of 95 could get these highlights that may have been forgotten or even unheard of but it was definitely a incredible year for that era in rap
I knew 95 was a classic hip hop year but not to this degree... thanks for the lesson!
The somewhat underrated and overlooked 94 is still my top pick but I don't think we've ever had 3 amazing hip hop years in a row like 94-95-96. 97 and 98 were hot to.
94 isn't underrated at all lol, if any years was over looked it was 89-92 😂.
I gave away my Dogg Food CD. That makes me forget about it. I need that CD again 🎤🎤🎤🎤. Goodie Mobb Soul Food aged well over the years 🎤🎤🎤🎤
I wasn't a big fan of Dogg food when I 1st heard it. I liked 8ball and mjg way better but after a couple weeks that Dogg Pound was fire 🔥
Probably one of my favorite years in life.
Another amazing year for the culture,,,imma be bumpin 95 for the rest of the month,,,much luv on the channel bro 🇳🇿💯👍🏼
Thank you fam. You got plenty of great music to listen to for the month.
Mack 10 album gets big props for breaking the death row’s stranglehold on the west coast at the time..
Yeah Mac came hard I used to bump that cd hard
Definitely a strong contender. I still slightly prefer 96 and 88 but 95 is definitely in that conversation for best rap year.
This is the greatest year in hip hop, ever... AZ is the most underrated rapper ever
88 is literally he best year in rap and hip hop
This is undoubtedly the greatest year in hip hop
Most of the time classic albums came out in 95
Real Spill💯 1995 was the illest of the year of Rap. No B.s. or biased you cover all angles of rap. Great Video. P.s. E 40 is from Vallejo tho.
If c-Bo stomping in my steel toes wasn’t mentioned I was gonna say something 😂good ear💯
C-bo was the dude had to mention that 😆

That was 96 I believe
Such a gread year in hip hop.
Thanks for this
I enjoy watching your TH-cam videos because it helps me build up my CD collection a little bit better two fingers in the air definitely for 95 that was my year and the reason why is I used to read a lot of Spawn comics I used to listen to az at the same time
Glad I could help you on that. I have a memory like that with ice cube America's most wanted we used to play that a lot while we played mortal combat
Damn 95 was legendary for the rap game!
Can forget ESG, another no skip from start to finish, best intro damnear ever
Shit forgot Mystikal, I'm getting old and still have that album as well as AZ
My favorite album of that year was definitely Bone's E. 1999 Eternal. Other fav Tha Dogg pound's Dogg food.
It’s between 88, 94 and 95 for me
I have a tie for 95 & 96 for me.

An incredible year. Probably the second best year for hip hop ever, just A HAIR behind 96’.
What happened to the lost boyz lifestyles of the rich and shameless????
That was in 97
That was 'Legal Drug Money' from LB in 95'. Another classic!
The most non skip albums in 1 yr
1994 was the best year for Rap
I agree. More solid albums came out.
Eightball & MJG
91-95
🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
96 the best. Easy..
Phantom of The Rapra can run with Pac whole album was a no skip classic, as well as E-40 and Bone TnH...
Aww yeah South Circle and 8-Ball n MJG, Dayton Family and and The Show...all no skip albums
Caution and ghetto mafia was dope

Sorry bro but nothing was fucken with the Wu & Mobb Deep in 95. Cuban Linx & The Infamous and I put that Liquid Swords and G. Rap 4,5,6 up there.
Can't argue against those at all. My top 2 were pac and on top of the world by 8ball and mjg. I know a lot of people will disagree on that but that ball and g was on steroids

Albums in 95:
Me against the world - Pac
Only built for Cuban linx - Raekwon
The infamous - mobb deep
Liquid swords - gza
The score - the fugees
Doe or die - Az
Lifestyles of the poor and dangerous - Big L
Eternal - Bone thugs
4,5,6 - Kool G rap

Now,that's just crazy 🤣
THE SUMMER OF 95 .... ONE OF THE BEST SUMMER OF MY LIFE
Same here I
Off Top I was 17 then.
Probably 🤔
Overall, 1995 was in my opinion the most competitive year for hip hop in the 90s, especially eastcoast and westcoast. Not to mention other relased/unreleased albums like:
Wrap your lips around this (Agallah 8 off)
Chastisement (sir jinx)

1996 was better
You sound like lord finesse
Big knockout and dresta album was on outburst records/Ral/def jam
96
Fat Joe's second album was named "Don Cartegena", not "Jealous Ones Envy".
Don cartegena was his album in 98 or 99 that had tris with the terror squad on it
IMO, 94 and 95 are equal.
