Remember Aaliyah's tragic plane crash death in 2001? Yeah, baby.

By the time Aaliyah's first album came out in 1994 I was listening to them less. Only played In Utero a few times. It just didn't sit well. Nirvana had been ruined by a psycho-bitch and then Kurt was dead. There were a lot of good bands at that time. Lot of real Grunge and incredible underground shit was happening still. Steel Pole Bath Tub, Melvins, Mudhoney, Tad, Soundgarden, Monster Magnet, Sonic Youth, they were all candidates to be the Next Big Thing. It was mindblowing at the time to see all these obscure bands I loved getting big.
Sonic Youth. There's a band I haven't though about in a while. Just saw Ministry, Gary Numan, and TKK. Going to Metallica, "Pantera", and one other in the spring.
The only "black" music I listen to is jazz and go-go (I grew up in C in the 80s). And earliest hiphop like Geto Boyz, Onyx, etc,
I listen to so much Jazz. For months now I've been exploring the world of 70's Fusion.
Tower of Power!
I actually threw a tower of power show in the 90s. Also, you should check out Mendeski Martin and Wood
Check out Casiopea. Jazz fusion.
Once I posted their album in General Chat out of the blue. Another lesser-known Fusion LP: Ian Carr's Nucleus - Out Of The Long Dark https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T32pmSHZSFg
Is that Ghetto Boyz of the Die MFer Die MFer Die fame, from Office Space?
Stupid printers.
I don’t listen to much hip hop anymore, but there’s a couple classics from Geto Boys:
Mind Playing Tricks on Me
and this anti-fed one;
G Code
I think you may be mixing things up. Geto Boys didn't do, to my knowledge DMFD. That was a band called Dope. I assume you are thinking of Office Space where they beat the fax machine to death in the field. That was another early rapper.
Still love the Melvins. I liked they weren’t druggies. Soundgarden’s only hiccup was the production of bad motorfinger. Such a great band. Ya know what is a mixed masterpiece? Tool’s 10,000 days. The Pot is my recently declared number one rock song of all time. Joe Baressi is a genius.
