But that wasn't the last big thing for rap in the 80's. It was really gangsta rap that was the last innovative thing. That was hot in 88 and is still very much visible in today's scene. There are other areas of rap of course that are seen today and was seen in the 90's but none that I would call "innovative." Even the electronic/sampling was done in the 80's, political/social rap, party gimmick rap, etc. These topics/sounds were repeated in the 90s and currently, nothing new.
