Dude no, Linkin Park wasn’t 90s. Hybrid Theory wasn’t released until 2000 and Meteora wasn’t until 2003. They weren’t even known as Linkin Park until 1999 (they were known as Xero and Hybrid Theory before then and really only released a couple short demo tapes).
Contrast with Smashmouth (Fush Yu Mang in 1997, Astro Lounge in 1999), Eminem (Infinite 1996, Slim Shady EP 1997, Slim Shady LP 1999).

For a lot of Black folks, they don’t really love: “darker place”, “black hole”, etc.
Just something to think about if you are traveling outside of Utah sometime. Maybe just say “this place is worse for having you in it”.
And Sublime was an amazing group. They’re definitely in the echelon of Beastie Boys and “the white half of Bob Marley”.

90's appreciation thrad
All this Sublime talk and no music.
Soundtrack to my HS days.

Sublime nailed the appropriation in this one.

In the late 90s I drove this, but with more stripes that had been added by the previous owner.
When my cousin first saw it, he said it looked like something Beck would drive, thus The Beckmobile was born. I said it had two camshafts and a microphone, but only a few people got it. Midnight Vultures was still in the cassette deck when I gave it to a friend, who drove it right up to the day it finally succumbed to Toyota's mortal enemy: Fe₂O₃
Two decades later, Beck would still get nostalgic about 80s Toyotas (take that Hyundai!)

Exactly! You say “nailed the appropriation”, I say “brought authenticity”. Sublime doesnt pull off the brilliance of “April 29, 1992” if they weren’t from Long Beach.
Beastie Boys don’t pull off the brilliance of Shadrach (Paul’s Boutique came out in ‘89, but that still counts as 90s right?) if they weren’t from Brooklyn.

Beastie boys where Manhattan school boy retards who just happened to be in the thick of a musical revolution occuring in NYC. They didn't live in poverty or anything remotely close to it. They are legit talented but they started with just following the advice of cool kids at NYU and going to shows every day when the music scene was amazing in NYC. Read their book it's amazing how lucky they were.
90s were great. I remember in NJ getting a mixed tape with my Echo Tshirt I bought at a shop that you could buy wax, Montana spray, and the African jewelry that fell out of style quickly. Spoken word was hot back then. Used to go watch slam poets occasionally. I bounced around a few of the counter culture scenes. Artists are a fun crowd but damn do they have their extreme highs and lows.

I stand corrected on Mike Diamond and Ad Rocks background. I’m more familiar with Adam Yauch (he did grow up in brooklyn and he was on scholarship at his hs).

A lot of the Riot Grrrl bands out of Olympia used to play in Seattle in the '90s. L7, Sleater-Kinney, Heavens to Betsy, Seven Year Bitch, The Gits (RIP Mia Zapata), and of course Bikini Kill.

Umm Nas was born to a musician father who introduced him to loads and loads of influencal music. He was trained to understand the beat but to just feel it not classical style writing.
So yeah not like Nas. Thinking of someone else?

Someone put Linkin Park in with Limp Biscuit and Vanilla Ice? Jeez you guys don't seem to understand musical styles or influences much huh? Not surprising considering the cross section of 50 year old white boy skiers here. I'm still down kinda like I have to listen to bad taste in music at weddings but have fun anyway.
