No, this isn't a Grand Puba album spotlight, although he is certainly deserving of one.

We're dusting off those Girbaud jeans, that favorite Tommy Hilfiger you wore twice-a-week to school and your fresh '92 Polo Sport jacket. We got the perfect music to accompany you on this journey from EPMD, Grand Puba, Positive K, Chubb Rock, Biz Markie, 3rd Bass, Black

Episode 101 is an ode to 1990. This was a defining moment in hip-hop as the musical tides started to turn. The 80s were done, as were many of the styles and genres to come out of that decade. Rap dominated the airwaves and took over pop culture as we know it. While both MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice were at the top of the pop charts, it was influential voices like Chuck D, Ice Cube and Shock G that provided the sounds cherished to this day. The Afrocentrism movement was huge as legendary groups
