What's your favorite music era? I'd have to say 04-06 is mine because that's about the time I started listening to rap.. during that time Houston was the shit. A lot of texas rappers were constantly on the radio. That was Texas prime in my opinion... A lot of good songs and movies came out in those years. And not a lot of bullshit was going on... I feel like it was a grace period.. If I could live in a certain time all my life, I'd choose 04'-06'.
What about yall???
Favorite Music Era??

90's... I remember every Saturday morning my older cousin would take me to Timmy's off of MLK and after that we would shoot to Cullen and he'd get himself a tape at the screw shop and get me one too. Screw tapes were how I learned about alot of rappers that weren't from the south. I'll never get them days back but it's cool thinking about them. 90's was the shit as far as era of rap. Different types of music I'd have different answers for. Rock music would be the 60's. R&B would be the 60's through the 70's. Country would be late 80's early 90's. And for all my mexicans on here and nothing like 90's tejano... hahaha

I'd go with the 2000s cuz I was raised in that era and tbh I can't relate too much to the nineties even though some of my favorite rap albums came from that era (i.e. Three 6 Mafia and UGK tapes but them shits are timeless).
A lotta good Southern and West Coast music came out in the 2000s and it would be the last time when even some mainstream music had a sense of realness too it.
With some exceptions I can't mess with shit post 2010.
If you ask me all the good music nowadays is vibrant of the 2000s era. Niggas who sound like the nineties are corny and the New Age music is just dumb

as far as rap eras go i'd have to go with the late 90s/early 00s and like 2009-2012.
the late 90s/early 00s was awesome for indie rap. all of that early rawkus, fondle 'em, def jux shit is dope and a lot of it still holds up pretty well today. that's mostly what i came up on because that's what all the other white boys into hip hop were listening to. then i heard the "pocket full of stones" remix and it was over. cliche i know but i was like "damn, this shit is country as fuck!" being from the country myself i guess that shit just spoke to me more than talib kweli and pharoahe monch rapping about headwraps or whatever.
2009-2012 was like the greatest era for internet rap. that's when i remember artists starting to release album-level projects for free; so much great shit was coming out in that four year period - freddie gibbs, pill's first two or three tapes, the first main attrakionz tape, danny brown's hybrid and xxx, action bronson's first few tapes - man, i could go on and on. just a ton of quality shit dropping weekly, and for free.
not saying there isn't still a lot of new, high-quality music out there for free (zilla immediately comes to mind), but it seems like you have to dig a little bit harder to find it.

I'd have to say the early to mid 90's. Nothing against the newer stuff. But like Pac said " ain't nothing like the old school." And the 90's isn't even old school really.

For rap music I would say 88's to 2000 maybe a little later. I just can't feel any of the new stuff, even indie artist are mimicking crossover artist. The lack of originality is very disappointing, and the rise and acceptance of gay rap, Young Thug etc. is unbelievable. I'm listening to more jazz and alternative music as a result.
