With classics from Public Enemy and A Tribe Called Quest, the albums from April 1990 mark the beginning of '90s hip-hop in earnest. En Vogue also makes their debut, as do Green Day, who will go on to become one of the biggest bands of the decade. A "lesser" release from Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds reveals the scope of their brilliance. And Fugazi enters the scene, marking the beginning of a career defined by integrity and fearlessness.
