The year is 1994. Forrest Gump releases to theaters and becomes a box office sensation. The Houston Rockets defeated the New York Knicks in the NBA Finals. At the age of 45, George Foreman became the oldest heavyweight boxing champion in history. Kurt Cobain is found dead in his home at the age of 27. Two weeks after this Nas released ‘Illmatic’ which is widely regarded as the greatest rap album of all time.
