First of it’s kind on Rizzo Music, this week I am here to introduce our ’90s rap music playlist.
Although I grew up mostly on ’90s alternative rock, I do have some rap favorites that I would like to share with you. These hits are about as good as rap singles go. My favorite from this group of songs would have to be “It Was A Good Day” by Ice Cube. I can’t find a better rap song to stroll through town with the windows down. It will have you head bobbing up and down from beginning to end.
Enjoy this one and be sure to let me know if I missed any classics.

UPDATE: 90’s Rap Hits Playlist Part II
Looking for more playlists? We’ve got plenty.
As a hip hop (rap) enthusiast I have been with the genre since it began. I think you are pretty much on the money with your top ten list. I would disagree only with your Master P inclusion. You should have a woman on the list as we were very instrumental during the 90’s to hip hop. That Master P slot should go to the fabulous Missy Misdemeanor – Missy Elliot for “The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly) 1997. It reached the top twenty in the UK and New Zealand. Thanks! the blog RAWKS!
Eazy-E iz tha GodPhather of ol’ Skool 90z gangster rap, Yu aint got nun of hiz shyt man!
Juicy- Notorious BIG?????
pretty good list. The 90’s was probably the best time for rap music.
You have to find a spot for Cypress Hill’s “How I Could Just Kill a Man”
California Love – 2pac and Dr.Dre
does anybody no the name to this one song i think in went something like you aint a player you a wanker or wigger or something like that i think the music video had like a doll in it or something maybe by 50 cent not sure
I believe the song you are referring to is called “Wanksta” by 50 Cent.
Lol why are you even mentioning that song and artist – thats like blasphemy
Grand puba -KRS ONE- Lords of the underground. Leaders of the New School. Outcast (southernplayalisticfunkmusic)
If you are defining Rap in the 90’s nothing was more instrumental than A Tribe Called Quest. Electric relaxation classic album that still holds up.
hey good musik but alot of biggies songshould be on their like Unbelievable, Going Back To Cali, Sky is The Limit, Hypnotize, Juicy those weremajor hits
great list, though being a product of the bay area scene in the early 90’s, where’s my E-40, Celly Cell, Digital Undergound, or Mac Dre. ha have to give it up for the west in the battle of coast.
NWA. . . . .im with the comment on Easy-E, gotta be a spot for them on there or it’s gotta be made the top 11. .
need some 2 short un there
OMG! You so forgot!!!!
Boom! Shake The Room!!!!!
Can anyone tell me the name of this song from a video. The video starts with a crime scene and the head detective sees the body and says something like we need an inside man or something like that. Also, at the end the suspect or whomever he is chasing ends up with a lot of money throwing it in the air. If anyone can tell me the name of that song i would be so great full.
i love this man its great you got alot of my favs on there keep up the good work
