The '90s were hip-hop's golden age. The era gave rise to some of the most prolific MCs there have ever been. While Tupac [1] and Biggie are arguably the most well-known rappers to emerge in the '90s, don't forget that the decade also gave us the out-of-this-world musical stylings of Missy Elliott [2], the raw and grizzled lyrics of DMX, and legendary collaborations between artists like Wu-Tang's Method Man and the queen of hip-hop soul herself, Mary J. Blige. These songs are guaranteed to make you want to bring back cross colours and bust out your carefully choreographed Kid 'n Play dance. Keep reading for the best of '90s rap.
