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’
