It just seems like everything from country to gangster rap was so much better in the 90's!

What specific circumstances, in your impartial and unbiased view, made gangster rap of the 1990s era artistically superior to gangster rap of other time-periods?

Pretty much nothing I like was better in the 90's despite some outstanding individual instances. Country was better? Seriously?

Apparently there's a lot of anti 90's people on here. Damn! I didn't realize that the 90's was some kind of cursed decade for music.

I love 90s music but to say it was the best decade for all genres of music is just foolish

91-95 is one of the strongest five years in pop music history. 97-01 might be among the worst five year stretches. When it went bad, it went bad quickly.

That's the amazing things about the 90s, how this promising trend in music went to utter shite in the span of a few years. The net result of grunge is Creed and Nickelback.

I don’t know how deep that period is, and I am sure whatever was on the radio then was bad. But if I was making a top 10 records all-time list, I would have at least five from that period. (Lonesome Crowded West, Perfect From Now On, In the Aeroplane Over the Sea, Emergency and I, The Moon and Antarctica)

90s was a great era for pop and rock/pop. You could find a lot of good mainstream bands.

But if you look at quality x quantity, 2000's are better for obvious reasons.

Wheat's Hope and Adams was released in '99, the best record to close the decade... perfect record...
