The 1990s was one of the most musically diverse decades in history. Grunge emerged from Seattle with Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden, while alternative rock dominated college radio. Hip-hop reached new heights with Tupac Shakur, The Notorious B.I.G., Jay-Z, and the East Coast/West Coast rivalry. Teen pop exploded with the Backstreet Boys, *NSYNC, Britney Spears, and the Spice Girls. R&B flourished with Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, TLC, and Boyz II Men. Country music also had a major commercial moment, with Garth Brooks becoming one of the best-selling artists of all time.
The 90s produced some of the most iconic songs ever recorded. Nirvana's 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' (1991) is widely credited with bringing grunge into the mainstream. Whitney Houston's version of 'I Will Always Love You' (1992) remains one of the best-selling singles ever. Alanis Morissette's 'Jagged Little Pill' (1995) became one of the best-selling debut albums by a woman. The decade saw the rise of the superstar DJ and electronic dance music, setting the stage for today's EDM scene. The music video era peaked in the 90s, with MTV's Total Request Live (TRL) creating mass hysteria for pop acts.
