by Joshua B. Hoe This playlist has some newer stuff, but mostly is a celebration of 90's Hip-Hop. Yes, it is a delayed response to Vince Staples calling out 90's Hip-Hop (and yes, I am virtually 100% certain that he doesn't care).

1. Don't Think Twice, Albert Hammond Jr., Momentary Masters 2. So What'Cha Want, Beastie Boys, Check Your Head 3. Leave A Trace, Chvrches, Every Open Eye 4. Excursions, A Tribe Called Quest, The Low End Theory 5. The Choice (Is Yours), Black Sheep, A Wolf In Sheep's Clothing 6. Reticence, Girls Names, Arms Around A Vision 7. Passin' Me Bye, Pharcyde, Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde 8. Outrunning Shadows, Cold Beat, Up In The Air 9. Hands Up, Vince Staples, Hell Can Wait EP 10. Reaper Invert, Wand, Golem 11. What's Up Fatlip, Fatlip, The Loneliest Punk

Doesn't Girls Name sound like old INXS? They do to me.

In particular, the Fatlip track is one of my all-time favorites, I know it is not a 90's song, but I wanted to include it because it turns most of the traditional hip-hop messages on their heads.

I don't know how much of what Fatlip (from Pharcyde) says on this track is TRUE - but even saying all of it is pretty courageous (in a genre where macho is pretty much the only rule for decades).

Also love the Spike Jonez directed video:

Anyway, hope you enjoy the playlist!
