Hip hop's "golden age" (or "golden era") is a name given to a period in mainstream hip hop usually cited as the late 1980s to the 1990s said to be characterized by its diversity, quality, innovation and influence. There were strong themes of Afrocentricity and political militancy, while the music was experimental and the sampling, eclectic. The artists most often associated with the phrase are Public Enemy, Boogie Down Productions, Eric B. & Rakim, Pete Rock & CL Smooth, De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, and the Jungle Brothers. Releases by these acts co-existed in this period with, and were as commercially viable as, those of early gangsta rap artists such as N.W.A, the sex raps of 2 Live Crew, and party-oriented music by acts such as Kid 'n Play and DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince. Some writers, such as Tony Green, have referenced the two year period 1990 1999 as "a second Golden Age" that saw influential, high quality albums using elements of past classicism E-mu SP-1200 drumsounds, turntable scratches, references to old school hip hop hits, and "tongue-twisting triplet verbalisms" while making clear that new directions were being taken.
