97-00 didn’t have as many good-great albums as previous years but they did have some extreme highs, especially 98 and 00.

What I’m finding with those years are that not only had the landscape changed, so did my tastes and I feel like I missed out on some bangers back then that I appreciate much more now. Like Black Moon’s War Zone...that shit is a banger from top to bottom but I was kind of past that style in 99 so it came off weak.

97 was definitely a change but man...I love some of those albums.
