Well, to start off pretty much everybody that's signed to Duckdown records and most of the Wu-Tang members/affliates. Blaq Poet, NYG'z, Maffew Ragazino, Ruste Juxx, Termanology and Reks. Just to name a few. All have been around before Pro Era.
Duck down don't have a throwback sound, just cuz they are from the 90s don't mean that's they whole style bro lol neither does wu, wu used to say 'You won't get this till 10 years later' masts kills I can agree w but iono if I'm with you on that...we can agree to disagree tho
Seems like your mixing up ppl that were poppin in the 90s that still rap the same with someone using the sound of the 1990s as their whole sound
currently
But if you really believe that no need to go back and forth. That's cool. My outlook was like, someone like Jurassic 5 doing 80s music, but just in the 90s instead. 1990s had a lot of dope music and it's not the easiest to emulate.
Duck down has changed throughout the years, buckshot with bdi thug, tech from smif and Wesson got a mike Tyson tat and changed his whole style, rusty juxx just raps how he raps, Sean p changed with the times etc etc. as far as wu they always claimed to be futuristic in comparison except masta killa to me, they may give a nod to the earlier days of rap but that's not they whole style encompassed or nothin.
Everyone in the 90s has been around since pro era..,that's like tens and thousands of people,that wasn't what I was sayin lol..maybe u don't get what i mean or somethin but it's all good
Pro era are ill kids who were like 4 in the 90s...so it's a lil more obvious they're trying to do that versus someone who was rappin in the 90s that didn't change much and that's based on them not being able to change with the times, more so than wanting to emulate the 90s sound
A good example of someone who raps in the 90s-80s style purposely would be edan
All the other examples u mentioned I don't listen to. U could be right on them but I wouldn't know
