We’re back in effect with a brand-new format: DREAM TEAM!
The goal of this new series is to create an all-star playlist of songs for each year of hip-hop’s 1990s golden era.
In each episode, we take 22 of our favourite hip-hop joints from the selected year and draw them against each other in a series of one-on-one matches.
We use the three-man vote to decide on the winner until we’re left with 11 triumphant tracks, which we’ll share as a playlist on Spotify. We also decide on the team’s name, manager and star player.
In this episode we preside over a 22-way tussle between our favourite tracks from 1996:
- 2Pac ‘Skandalouz’
- Blahzay Blahzay 'Danger'
- Busta Rhymes 'Woo Hah!! (Got You All In Check)'
- Cella Dwellas ‘Perfect Match’
- De La Soul 'Stakes is High'
- DJ Honda ' Straight Talk From NY’
- DJ Shadow 'Changeling'
- Ghostface Killah 'Fish'
- Heltah Skeltah ‘Undastand’
- InI ‘Fakin’ Jax’
- Jay-Z ‘D’Evils’
- Jeru 'The Frustrated Nigga'
- Juggaknots 'A Rainy Saturday'
- Mad Skillz 'Tongues of the Next Shit'
- Makaveli 'Me and My Girlfriend'
- Nas 'I Gave You Power'
- Nine 'Lyin' King'
- OC & Buckwild 'What I Represent'
- Smoothe Da Hustler ‘Broken Language’
- Snoop Doggy Dogg ‘Groupie’
- Real Live ‘The Gimmicks’
- Wu Tang Clan 'America'
