People took the 90s for granted

[BigMoneyGrip]

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.

Facts.. I was there… 80s was even better

Clothing and gaming definitely is better now. Only thing I think you can make a contrary argument is saying resellers killed the sneaker game.

I'll give you gaming (technology) but clothing HELL NAH.. We had all the black brands back then and wasn't dressing like this

If clothing was better, do you personally have a style that would look common in the 90s?

Yea... like this but a little less baggy.. RZA, Meth, GZA, UGOD

I mean we act like it was 2002 Soulja Boy.. Early 90s was more like this

Again... Bout 93... Slightly less baggy but same jeans, shirt, big coat in the winter

This ain't never going out of style

Can't go wrong with jeans and a logo tee

The 90’s were a very violent time for the USA. Alot of people got into situations they weren’t built for. A lot of people didn’t make it out.

The 90's even the 2000s was a great time to be alive.

Before 9/11 America was very easygoing and relaxed. Passing through airport security wasn't a hassle it was simple.

Paranoia was non existent. Political correctness was minimum. The 90's was a no filter era. Very raw.

No smartphone era. No hiding through cellphones. Face to face communication was all we had. People were more authentic and genuine back then.

Dialup was a bummer. Then DSL internet swept us at our feet with those high speeds

No BBLs. No build a bodies. Natural beauty still peaked.

Golden age of Hip Hop. 90's pop culture accelerated the growth and rise of Hip Hop culture. Every genre was actually on point. Artists were eating

Early 90's had a lot of crime in major cities including NYC. No phones - robberies and mugging happened frequently if you wasn't on point.
