..in Hip Hop. Just like much of the early 90's, 1995 was a year that produced some of the most unbelievably banging tracks that continually stand up to the test of time, regardless of a constantly changing popular culture. Even today, some of the tracks that were released over 15 years ago continue to be some of the most ill, and straight up 'G' songs used in numerous edits today. Many of these featured songs, most often by Nas, Biggie, Any and ALL of the WU TANG CLAN, determine a good 95% of how 'gangster' a skier is perceived (unofficial fact). Yet not many people know where or how the music that creates this vibe was formed, or the history behind it. For all of the youngsters out there who may not know the history behind such raw influential hip hop power, we've decided to write up a list of some of the best albums of '95.Read, Download, Listen, and Study up.

**The list of edits that have come from any one of these albums is ridiculous...it'd take forever. But please - if you've got or know of edits containing songs from an album outta '95, post it here!
Recent Example | Even though this is Outkast from '94, this edit is a prime example of how dope the hip hop was back in the 90's...Big ups to Paul B for the shredit.Slushyparkalisticadillacmusik from Paul Braunstein on Vimeo.
AND as a tribute to the year 1995 and all the good music it has blessed our edits with, we're dropping all our hat prices (shipping included) to $19.95. Check em out - http://www.rimeknits.com/store/hats.html
And the next time you sit down to watch the most baller Hip Hop shred edit, take a moment to reflect on the soundtrack...and maybe why it isn't Lil' Wayne...
