I recognize many of those artists by name, but 'Now That We Found Love' by Heavy D and the Boyz is the only one I know by title. It's a cover of the 70s song of the same name by Third World. I know both versions, and though I am not a big rap fan, I really enjoyed Heavy D's version

I know "Now That We Found Love", but that's about it. I remember "OPP" by Naughty by Nature and "Woo-hah! (Got You All In Check)" by Busta Rhymes more than the ones you listed.
Does anyone remember this one?:

Didn't think so...
Also, Cypress Hill shouldn't be forgotten. Here's their most popular song:

My all-time fave rap song of the 90s: 'Let Your Backbone Slide' by Maestro Fresh Wes. He was a Canadian rapper, and in 1990 went to #1 in Canada with this song. Dunno if it saw action outside of Canada, so check it out. It's awesome, isn't it :)

No offense, Whistledog, but i didnt know they had rappers up there in Canada. Maybe border towns in the US may know Maestro. I am in the northeast US where New York City drove most of the rap music in the 80's and 90's.
Maestro probably wouldn't mess with these guys from California.

I remember some of the songs mentioned (Black Sheep, Das EFX come to mind). They take me back to the days of Yo! MTV Raps... Here's a few more that I can recall:
WARNING: These songs may contain swearing or strong/bad language!
Cypress Hill - Hand On The Pump
Cypress Hill - How I Could Just Kill a Man
Tim Dog - Step To Me
(BTW: I have both ^ albums... :-Self Destruction
And now for something completely different: J.J. Fad - Supersonic
I believe this one wasn't as big in US as it was over here: Del Tha Funkee Homosapien - Mistadobalina
...and while US were dealing with the whole Eastcoast/Westcoast rivalry, we kept it clean with our own rappers.
These are the most popular acts of that era:
King Bee - Back By Dope Demand (1990, #4)
Tony Scott:
01. That's How I'm Living (1989, #20)
02. The Chief (n/a)
03. Get Into It (1990, #4)
04. Gangster Boogie (1990, #22)
05. Love Let Love (1991, #7)
Other hits, not in this compilation:
Move To The Big Band (w/ Ben Liebrand) (1990, #20)
From Da Soul (1991, #21)
Gimme Some (Swing It Baby) (1991, #29)
Under Pressure (w/ Boyz II Men) (1991, #28)
The Greenhouse Effect (w/ Part Two) (1992, #33)

I'm with you. Not all rap is crap. In general, I don't care much for the thuggish "blow ya bleedin' brains out" kinda stuff. So why did I buy that Cypress Hill CD...? :-\\

Sad Dre isn't popular anymore, well except for his headphone line.
