Top Ten Party Anthems Of The 1990s

house party Top Ten Party Anthems Of The 1990sAs you watched your parents roll out of the driveway, your brain fired teeny tiny neurons through an astonishing amount of bong resin floating around in your skull. Yes, it was party time. The parental units were gone. They said something about Branson or even Reno maybe. Hell, at this point you didn’t give a rats ass. All you could think about was the blowout that was going to occur at your house. With the help of your friends, the plan had been formulated. Beer? Check. Bartles & James? Check. Boone’s Farm Wine? Check and double Check. Purple Passion? You fuckin’ betcha. The only thing that you thought was missing was some horse tranquilizers and some wacky tobacky. And then it donned on you. We need some fuckin’ tunes, man. Not just any tunes either. You needed something that would get all the asses in the joint shaking. You needed music that would get the whitest of white kids off their ass and onto the dance floor with a quickness. You needed you some party anthems.

mase puff daddy Top Ten Party Anthems Of The 1990sThat aforementioned scenario was pretty much my teenage years in a nutshell. I spent massive amounts of time and brain cells planning and assisting the delinquency of my friends and general public. Why? Because I’m a giver. That’s what I do. Keeping with the spirit of giving, I’m about to drop some knowledge.  Some Top Ten type of knowledge. Given my penchant for time travel, I warped back the the 1990s and escaped with a list known only to man as “Top Ten Party Anthems Of The 1990s”. So grab your bong, turn this shit up to eleven, and let the rump shaking commence.

    You forgot the Apple Pucker and Peppermint Schnapps, kid, and if you want a slow jam to get the ladeez in the mood, try “No Diggety” by Blackstreet.

      No Diggity was on the list, but I substituted it with Rump Shaker. This list easily could have be 25 large.
