Kissin’ You - Total (1996) 🔥🔥
Produced by Raphael Saadiq
The harmonies, the sensual vibe, and the way the track just melts — this was one of the smoothest slow jams EVER.
This is a Classic 💯

Before the world knew DMX, this was Earl Simmons in 1986. 📸
From these early days to becoming one of the most raw, powerful, and unforgettable voices hip-hop has ever seen. The pain, the hunger, the energy — it was all there from the beginning.
Rest in power to a true legend. 🕊️

26 years ago today, Three 6 Mafia dropped their fourth album “When the Smoke Clears: Sixty 6, Sixty 1” 📀
After years of building their hypnotic sound in the Memphis underground, this was the project that finally broke them through nationally.
It peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard 200 and No. 2 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
Still one of the most influential Southern albums of the early 2000s.
Favorite track on the album?

Po Pimp - Do Or Die feat. Twista & Johnny P (1996) 🔥🔥
Produced by The Legendary Traxster
That smooth, menacing Midwest player anthem. This joint was the perfect blend of street and smooth.
Pure '96 Chicago energy.

AZ & Nas - The Essence (2002) 🔥🔥
Two of the illest lyricists trading bars like it’s nothing. AZ’s smooth, intricate flow over that soulful sample while Nas comes through with that signature hunger — this was peak underground-to-mainstream New York rap.
What’s your favorite verse — AZ or Nas?

24 years ago today, AZ dropped his fourth album “Aziatic” 📀
It reached No. 29 on the Billboard 200 and No. 5 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
AZ is one of the most slept-on MCs in the game. Pure maturity and bars.

Wanna Be a Baller - Lil' Troy feat. Fat Pat, Yungstar, Big T, Lil' Will & Big Hawk (1998) 🔥🔥
Produced by Bruce “Grim Reaper” Rhodes
This one was a straight Houston street anthem that somehow became a national classic.
Recorded at the height of the chopped & screwed era, it brought together legends like Fat Pat and Big Hawk on one track.
Classic 💯

14 years ago today, a 17-year-old Joey Bada$$ dropped his debut mixtape “1999” 💿
Recorded with his Pro Era crew, this project was a love letter to the golden era — boom-bap drums, sharp lyricism, and raw New York energy from a teenager who sounded like he’d been rapping for decades.
It dropped for free and instantly put him (and the whole Pro Era movement) on the map.

They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y.) - Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth (1992) 🔥
Produced by Pete Rock & CL Smooth
One of the coldest beats in hip-hop history💯 — that haunting Tom Scott flute sample, Pete Rock cooking up pure soul on the boards, and C.L. Smooth painting the most beautiful, painful tribute to his fallen friend.
This one hits different every single time.

Happy 31st Birthday to Tems 🎈🔥
From “Free Mind” blowing up during lockdown to “Essence” with Wizkid becoming a global summer anthem and working with Beyoncé and Drake, she’s been on one of the most beautiful rises in modern music.
One of the most gifted, soulful voices out right now.

Soon as I Get Home - Faith Evans (1995) 🔥🔥
A tender, vulnerable love letter to Biggie about missing him while he was out in the streets. She laid her heart on the line over that smooth, pillow-soft Bad Boy production.
I swear i can listen to 90's R&B music literally all day !!

Happy 53rd Birthday to Faith Evans 🎂
She met Notorious B.I.G. at a Bad Boy studio session in 1994, stepped to the mic the same day, and sang the hook for “One More Chance” on the spot — instantly becoming his wife and the First Lady of Bad Boy.
Her debut album 'Faith' dropped later that year, peaked at No. 22 on the Billboard 200 and No. 2 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, and introduced the world to that silky, emotional voice.
Still one of the most soulful and timeless singers in R&B history.
