The 1991 Top 96 of B96 countdown was hosted by Eddie and Jobo. The earliest known year of B96's Top 96 yearly countdown is 1990, the first year the station used the famed 'Killer Bee' slogan and became a dance-leaning Rhythmic CHR. Note that the earliest available year of the top 96 countdown is 1995, which was opened by Coco Cortez, handed to Terry Fox and then closed with then-morning show hosts George McFly and Frankie 'Hollywood' Rodriguez. The reason for 96 songs is an obvious reference to B96's frequency, 96.3.

By 2008, B96 began to tone down the amount of hip hop in its playlist and returned as a top 40/CHR station, playing the current top names in music, such as Taylor Swift, Rihanna, Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, Black Eyed Peas, Kayne West, Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, and so on.Īnnually, B96 celebrates the new year by counting down the top 96 songs of the outgoing year. Featured artists during this period included Ludacris, Eminem, 50 Cent, Missy Elliot, Eve, Nelly, Alicia Keys, Ashanti and Justin Timberlake. By 2001, B96 was largely a Hip Hop and R&B-leaning top 40 station as many of the teen pop acts of 1997-2000 began to decline in popularity. As this happened, dance music was restricted to their mix shows, which by then were starting to shut down. However, R&B and hip hop artists, such as Usher, Mary J Blige, Destiny's Child, Jay-Z, Ja Rule, Will Smith, and Mya, would soon become the station's focus. The station was also most notorious for their mix shows, aired throughout the day (and night), providing its listeners with obscure remixes of hit songs, as well as lesser-known gems.īy 1998, B96's primary playlist eliminated much of the 'dance' component and focused more on the Top 40 'pop' format, ranging from the teen pop acts, such as Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, N'Sync, Christina Aguliera, Robyn, and the Spice Girls to rock-leaning artists such as Jewel, Aerosmith, Third Eye Blind, Sugar Ray, Hanson, and the Goo Goo Dolls. However, it was extremely rare for B96 to hard rock or alternative tracks that were hits at the time. Occasionally, B96 would play ballads, ranging from pop, R&B, & freestyle, in addition to Adult Contemporary artists, such as Celine Dion and Bryan Adams. Finally, traditional pop artists like Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Madonna, Mariah Carey, and Whitney Houston were also represented. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Coolio, TLC, Bobby Brown, Blackstreet, Brandy, 2pac, the Notorious BIG, Boyz II Men, among others also received airplay on B96 as well. In addition to dance music, crossover R&B and rap artists like SWV, Dr. to find success with that formula during that decade.

Under this direction B96 would see ratings skyrocket out of nowhere and through most of the decade would set the standard as a cutting-edge leader regarding dance acts, making it one of the rare major market, full signal commercial stations in the U.S. Even local talent, such as Fast Eddie, LaTour, Dajae, Cajmere, Max-a-Million, 20 Fingers, and the Outhere Brothers received heavy airplay on B96. Throughout most of the decade, B96 focused largely on dance artists, such as Black Box, Technotronic, Dee-Lite, CeCe Peniston, Real McCoy, Lil Suzy, La Bouche, Rozella, Crystal Waters, Culture Beat, Corona, Cathy Dennis, Daft Punk, and many others. The station provided an enjoyable balance of R&B, Hip Hop, Freestyle, Euro-Dance, House, Techno, and Rhythmic-leaning Pop music. Some of these are the Notorious B.I.G., 2Pac, Fat Pat and Yaki Kadafi.īut what does all of this have to do with the Kardashians? Well, they love hip-hop, and a certain aspect of their personality relates to yours through this kind of music.Arguably, B96's most successful period occurred during the 1990s after evolving from a standard top 40 station a decade earlier to a very dance-leaning Rhythmic CHR station.

But let's give a shout-out to some old-school artists as well, since they have influenced the music we hear today. Other notable hip-hop artists include Drake, Future, Cardi B and Nicki Minaj. Eminem is known for his emotionally driven lyrics.

It's a genre that won't settle for conforming with the rest, and artists tend to feel free when writing or producing lyrics that hit close to home. Now, some genres may impact you differently than others, but one of the most emotionally complex types of music is hip-hop.

It has a way of making us happy, angry or sad, and sometimes we experience these emotions all at the same time. It transports our minds to another place and makes us feel things that may have been buried all along.
