It’s May 2004 and hip-hop is running everything—the clubs, the charts, the streets, and your flip phone ringtone. Crunk chants are shaking walls, mixtapes are breaking stars, and a new generation of voices is pushing the sound into fresh territory. This week’s countdown is packed with energy, storytelling, and anthems that defined the mid-2000s. Flowback 20 rewinds to the beats and memories that made this era unforgettable.
