First of all.....LMAO at Morrison's "Return of the Mack". I still love that song. NO idea why.
I graduated in HS in '94....and it may seem narrow minded, but I tend to think of the early nineties as being the most musically rich period in recent history. Sooo much going on.
Still had some quality punk rock borrowing from the late 70's and 80's. There were still bands that knew how to play straight up rock and roll....an art that seemingly vanished in the last decade (with the exception of a few bands in the last 2-3 years). Hip hop was coming into its own. R&B put out stuff that everyone liked. Hardcore bands were just about to peak. Metal was just that. Metal. Not this Nu metal bull**** that permeates the airwaves now.
...and of course there was grunge.
...and I'm speaking for myself here, but I wasn't unfamiliar with oldies either. I'm probably being naive regarding other generations, but it just seemed to me that mine was raised during one of the very best periods of musical growth...a period that saw considerable change, but still gave its due to its predecessors.

Left, Right, Left, was a great song and we played it out to, 98-2002, but we were mostly a 36 mafia high school before they went pop. We all thought we were bad bc we listened to them talk "walk up to ya house, knock on ya door and blow yo *** off, drop em off drop em off, ***** we gotta sawed off.."
