I was in my 20s in the 90s, and I liked hip hop, but I never followed the history of it. At the time I was listening to ALL genres of music, so I didn't have a favorite to dedicate myself to. I knew all all the names and much of their work, but, unlike some of my peers, I couldn't tell you what city they were from or other such details. Those who lived and breathed the genre had known of these artists since they hit the scene underground, while I didn't learn of them until they hit radio. I've been watching many documentaries on rap and hip hop and have learned a lot, and have developed an appreciation of it as an art. Back in the day, it was just fun.
