Flashback Friday: Ma$e and Jeru The Damaja
Finally, Friday is here. Let’s bring in the weekend the right way, with two of the most notable rap albums from the 90s.
The first one comes from the homie Nick Birdsong.
Ma$e, Harlem World (1997)
Nick said: “Harlem World encapsulates the Bad Boy Era of rap, which dominated the airwaves for more than a half decade. Mase was young, fly and flashy and we wouldn’t have Future or Rich Homie Quan if he didn’t drop “Jealous Guys.”

Jeru the Damaja, The Sun Rises in the East (1994)
Edd said: “In ’94, Jeru dropped one of the best albums of the ’90s, although it’s also one of the era’s most forgotten. Allow me to put y’all up on game. DJ Premier’s production and Jeru’s poignant rhymes helped to put East Coast hip-hop back in the national spotlight after the West Coast’s run of dominance.”
