Pull up those overalls and throw on your neon tracksuits because this week we are going back to the 90’s!

Aiight home skillet, do we have the episode for YOU today! The musical era of the 90’s was, to say the least, an interesting and defining decade of what music would eventually become. Moving away from the whiny guitars and synth we got from the 80’s, we started transitioning into a variety of different sounds from the rising popularity of Pop, Hip-Hop, R&B, Grunge, and Ska/Punk. We also got our fair share of boys band and pop groups too! So this week join Tuong La and Phat and Fly guests Axandre Lemours, Colleen Wang, and Victoria Luloff as they rank ‘all that and a bag of chips’ while discussing Top 5 90’s songs!

Ground Rules

• Music has to have been released in the 90’s (Duh!)
• Songs that were released in the 80’s and popularized in the 90’s don’t count
• Music can be from any genre in the 90’s
• Not counting Disney Songs (that basically can be it’s own podcast episode).
• Covers of songs from a different decade are a bit dicey. We will possibly count it depending on how iconic the cover is.
