I (heart) the 90's
Read the article for yourself. After a quick scan of the tracklisting.. I see Jump by Kris Kross and Walk by Pantera on the same disc. Above the 90's trends of grunge, 'euro, boybands, gansta rap and NU Metal and numerous others, retrospectively I think you can look at the fragmenting of pop music as the biggest trend of the 90s. The kid who was listening to Kriss Kross probably swiped his brothers Pantera tape and his dads Johnny Cash, started up a rock band and is now making music being played on ipods everywhere.
