90s music was such a melting pot of genres! Grunge, hip hop, and R&B really shaped the sound of the decade. Nirvana’s ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ and TLC’s ‘No Scrubs’ are absolute classics for me.

Totally agree! I also loved Backstreet Boys and their pop hits. ‘I Want It That Way’ still brings back so many memories!

90s hip hop introduced so many iconic artists. How can you not mention Tupac and Biggie? Their lyrics changed the game forever. Anyone else think their storytelling was unmatched?

Absolutely! I believe their impact is still felt today. It’s fascinating how the storytelling in hip hop paved the way for so many other genres.

I was all about R&B back in the day! Artist like Aaliyah and Usher had such smooth vibes. Their melodies just stick with you, don’t they?

For real, Aaliyah’s ‘Are You That Somebody’ is timeless. But I feel like grunge sometimes overshadows R&B. What do you guys think?

Interesting point! I think both have their place. Grunge was raw and emotional, while R&B had such a flavor of love and heartbreak. They complement each other in a weird way!

Can’t forget about the boy bands, though! They defined a whole era of 90s pop. I still can’t help but belt out ‘Bye Bye Bye’ whenever it comes on! Anyone else feel the same?

Haha, same here! My friends and I always joke that we can perform a full 90s boy band concert at karaoke. It’s just too catchy!

Absolutely! Even artists today take heavy inspiration from 90s sounds, especially in hip hop. It’s cool to see that influence live on.

I love 90s music videos! They were so creative and often told a story. One of my all-time favorites is Nirvana’s ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit.’ The visuals are unforgettable!

Totally agree! I also think Radiohead’s ‘No Surprises’ has such a unique concept with its imagery. The simplicity is so powerful.

Has anyone mentioned TLC’s ‘Waterfalls’? The message and storytelling in that video were groundbreaking for its time. Definitely a social commentary that resonates even today.

Absolutely! The visuals in that video are also so colorful and vibrant. It really cemented TLC as trailblazers in the industry.

Speaking of trailblazers, how about Britney’s ‘…Baby One More Time’? The iconic schoolgirl outfit is just one part of what makes that video legendary.

Right? And the choreography is still referenced today. It totally changed the landscape of pop music videos.

Can’t forget about the creativity of Beastie Boys with ‘Sabotage’! That video is like a mini action movie and really pushed the envelope at that time.

So true! The 90s had some of the best concepts. What about the surreal vibe of Smashing Pumpkins’ ‘Tonight, Tonight’? That one was magical!
