It's not about Bill Cosby's legacy.

Ugh, listening to White liberals whine about rap lyrics written 30 years ago by people from the ghetto is depressing.

They represented how people really talk in the hood. They didn't feel the need to be the "spokesmen" to educate White liberals on the Black experience. They weren't there for dissertations, they were there to give us an outlet to express our shit.

1st off I AM a millennial, nice try.

Hate to say, I gotta disagree with you.

The sample laws changing is what really hurt Public Enemy's output and their influence on others.

Just another reason to hate the internet outrage machine

He tells the truth.

You're the dumbass. That's not what Chuck said at all.

LMAO, they probably thought y'all couldn't tell Black people apart, OR Flav was booking P.E. shows without the rest of the guys' knowledge.

Wait, Dr. Dre doesn't have a Ph.D?

Well, the early '90s was different, yeah, but we kinda stuck in the post 2pac/Biggie/Nirvana era for a long, long time until EDM kinda snuck in there.

Yeah, but those people mostly sucked and Proof was alright.

That's Ice-T

I'm pretty sure we all would like to forget D-12

D.O.C. would be considered top 5 all-time had his voice not been fucked in that horrific crash.

That's true, I've still never heard a Justin Bieber song and I listen to music constantly

It's weird, because post-Nirvana, there was a big flux going on from '95-99, where electronica, swing, post-grunge, and what would become "nu-metal" were all fighting it out and eventually and so it's probably really more like '95-99 were all trying to figure out what's next.

Dude, yes.

"Sad Sweetheart of the Rodeo" was in my opinion a better single. It just never took off.
