  • I've had this in my favorites for a couple of years and on my page in the old playlists, just looking at it again -- have to say you really did an excellent job with editing the music on this.

  • @liz1060, thanks Liz, it was alot of work !

  • Omg, it's all clear to me now! It's the nigras and their rap!....

    Seriosly, are you looking for the catoliser that started it all? Sexual revolution - that branched into styles of drug'n'rock, pop and rap. These three styles dominate the playlists today.

  • has nothing to do with race, look at the previous #1's

    Has to do more with dumb down consumerism, insecurity, marketing IMO

  • im not saying i dont agree, but i think that was pretty biased. Where is the source that is telling you these #1's? you are filling a pretty narrow gap with these songs. You missed about 150 million genre's.

  • Wikipedia, not much bias, these are songs that DOMINATED #1 on charts for weeks and also heavily in pop culture each year,

  • Sad reflection on the world when a list that is populated with some truly mind bending talent is dominated in the last few years by a thug with a pistol.

  • Really proves that rappers with no taste killed music.  Started out with legendary music like Elvis and ended with crap like 50 cent.

see all

  • Whats the song at 1978??

  • I think on the last 10 songs or so, you focused on one genre only, while before you had more varieties.

  • eminem should be on the intro pic

  • everybody dance now

  • RIP MUSIC 

  • @DAveThePea Yeah but thankfully the whole rap/gangsta thing is dying out as hip hop is losing popularity because electro & pop are dominating now!

  • Um why did you skip years!? =/

  • sorta dissappointed.....i was looking forward to a little more rock and metal groups thrown in in the 90s, but c'mon, only guns & roses? this is basically "classic, pop & hiphop over the years" which can hardly be described as music...
