Throwback Thursday: 90s Style

Aug 6

I graduated high school in 1998, meaning Glam metal isn't actually the music of my generation.

During my high school days we had old school hip hop or grunge. We already know how hard the 90s were for a lot of the bands we love. So while I still listened to my beloved Glam bands, I also listened to a lot of hip hop and R&B. Back then, R&B and hip hop artists really sang - the songs weren't pure filth like today. Sort of the same with rock bands today versus the 80s I guess. Back in the 80s, Glam frontmen and women could really sing and guitarists could really shred. Today, that just isn't the norm anymore. So while this is a Glam site, I thought it would be fun to post up some of my favorite R&B and hip hop songs from my high school days. It is throwback Thursday, after all! #TBT!

2Pac, featuring Dr. Dre and Roger Troutman - "California Love"

Fun fact: this was wedding reception entrance song. Why? Why not! Easily one of the best rap songs ever recorded.
