People took the 90s for granted

[Antiquity]

We will likely never again see an era that brought immense creativity, liveliness, excitement, and excellence like the 90's did.

Black people had the best shows and sitcoms. Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Smart Guy, Sister Sister, Martin, Malcolm and Eddie, Living Single, In the House,the list goes on and on. There was such a diverse range of great television that represented us in a positive light.

Unmatched level of swag in terms of fashion

Taking pictures with actual cameras

High quality music and newly explored sounds and styles. So many amazing artists in that one era alone. RnB, Hip Hop, Pop, it was all amazing.

The films...Clueless, Space Jam, Home Alone, Boyz n The Hood, Friday, Titanic. Timeless cinematography that perfectly captured the essence of that era

The up and downs and unity that commenced after the Rodney King/OJ scandal

The video games

The best cartoons...

No smartphones... people actually getting out of their house and going to meet with people and hang out..renting Blockbuster tapes, Blockbuster and chill

Ain't no social media...better log your ass onto AIM breh...

So much precious time taken for granted. Now that era is looked back with nostalgic undertones, but it's beauty and simplicity will never again be replicated. Truly an era of versatility and expression. Excitement, youth, and fun energy. Excellence.

Cosign.

This is my only social media outlet now and I like it better this way.

The 90s was the ultimate shyt.

 

[Standing on business]

But The 2000's gave us Beyoncés solo career

 

[Critical Distance]

why you nikkas so obssessed with the past?

 

[jadillac]

Every era is dope when you don't know any better.

But the 2010s is definitely the woat decade.

 

[FeloniousMonk]

Everything is on point cept the cartoons.

The 80's hold that W

 

[smokeurobinson]

Does op realize that any generation can say the same thing?


The pop and rock dominance of the 80's

Hip Hop with hardly any profanity in the 80's

The classic movies of the 80's

The 80's cartoons with Transformers, G I Joe and Thundercats

Atari and Nintendo and the original Sega, Turbo Grafx 16.

The 80's being the "Just say no" decade



I can also do that with the 70's and the 2000's.


Anyone can do a retro throwback on their era

 

[Tenchi Ryu]

And now its gone....and never to return

:distewmuch:

 

[Clayton Endicott]

90's was the GOAT time for black television. We will probably NEVER see as many black TV shows on prime time TV again

 

[Bawon Samedi]

fukk the 90s. Most overrated era. As a 90s baby I'd rather live thru the 80s or 70s.

 

[Henri Christophe]

I can make thousands of dollars from my cellphone and laptop now without leaving the house

I'm good on the 90s. Were in the greatest modern era, fukk the 90s

Taking pictures with actual cameras

 

[lowkey0z]

 

[Kokoro]

Wrong

I could only pick out good things and write up the same thing for the 80s

And 70s

And 60s

We could cherry pick what was good for any generation

Back in the 90s Chicago and other cities had even MORE deaths per year and gangs were actually killing over colors. Convienently left that out, huh?

 

[wastedmermaid]

And in 20 years people will be saying the same thing about the 2010's.

 

[The M.I.C.]

why you nikkas so obssessed with the past?

Cause the shyt has deteriorated into utter shyt over the past two decades.
