    late 80's and 90's forsure. Maaannnn. My main man Big L (Harlem's Finest) HOV, The Wu, Outkast, Mos Deaf, Mobb Deep, Luniz, Warren G, Biggie, Pac, tribe called quest, Nelly, NaS, Slim Shady, Nine, AZ, Herb McGruff, D.I.T.C., Bone Thugs, Nate Dogg, U.G.K., Z-RO. I got much more, but cant think of 'em.lol

    And Erik 2.0 How could it have died in 97 when Big L recored a 98 freestyle part 1 & 2? Those freestyles are insane.
