Theres too many pac songs to bother listing them and i'm not a big mobb deep fan theres a few more outkast songs i can think of that belong on my list but i'll stick with players ball for the moment.
I'll prob have another list up tomorrow with a bit of the fugees and some more tribe and some lost boyz.

I am bad with specific songs and the timing and dont want to repeat songs so:

Outcast - "Rosa Parks"
Lil Troy - "Wanna be a baller"
Skee-Lo - "i wish"
house of pain - "jump around"
Cypress Hill - "Insane in the Brain"
Wu tang - Mystery of chessboxin

Tupac… yes all of it

They are just of the top of my head, and songs I think as just pure 90s.

It was recorded in the 90's though in fairness - unless you are one of those people who think he is in Cuba….

No Im not lol.
But strictly speaking it's not a 90s song as it wasn't released in the 90s

Underground

Another list thread?

conor.hogan.2

Ready or not and Xxplosive definitely should be on the list.

Fugees and Nate Dogg, really missed.

speedboatchase

My list might be fairly cliche so go easy on me:

Nas ft Lauryn Hill - If I Ruled The World
Mobb Deep - Shook Ones Part 2
LL Cool J - Doin' It
Notorious B.I.G - Juicy
Q Tip - Breath and Stop
Common - I Used To Love H.E.R
Fugees - Ready Or Not
Public Enemy - He Got Game
Warren G ft Nate Dogg - Regulate
2Pac - Keep Ya Head Up

Annoyingly, some of my favourites (Outkast - BOB, Dead Prez - Hip Hop, Eminem - Kill You) were all released in 2000

Boom_Bap

Not. Going. To. Even. Attempt. This.

Been listening to loads of 90's hip hop lately and my head would probably explode trying to come up with a list of top 100 let alone top 10.

"Gin and Juice" - Snoop
"What's my Name?" - Snoop
"Ain't Nutin' but a G Thang" - Dr. Dre
"Shook Ones (part II.)" - Mobb Deep
"Hypnotize" - Biggie
"Changes" - Tupac
"Dead Presidents, Pt. 2" - Jigga
"Organ Donor" - DJ Shadow
"Can I Kick It?" - ATCQ
"4th Chanber" - GZA
"Release Yo Self" - M.E.T.H.O.D. Maaaaaaaaayne
"Method Man" - The Wu
"C.R.E.A.M." - The Wu
"Da Art of Storytellin', Pt. 2" - Outkast (unreal beat)
