When did you start losing interest in Hip Hop and start listening to other genres?

26 'n' counting.

you should check out the stuff that came out from '91-'93, it was a revolutionary era in hip-hop and quite a bit of good stuff has come out since then.

I was sorta jesting since I got really into Biggie Smalls in the mid-nineties, and have loved the odd post '00 rap record (most notably Clipse - Hell Hath No Fury, and Prodigy - Return Of The Mac; oh, and Fishscale was pretty great too).

Curiosity makes me inquire further into the 91-93 stuff?

oh, haha.

besides the 'big three' (Arrested Development, A Tribe Called Quest & De la Soul) there were others which brought new breath into hip-hop. The Pharcyde's Bizarre Ride II is one of the coolest records of the era, and as for the late nineties revival i'd say Main Source doesn't get much rep but they were there as well.

I still mostly listen to hip-hop, not much new stuff, but there's so much old stuff.
I started listening to other music around the time when 50 Cent got really popular
