1999 wildfire for wildfire:feel the heat, a movie released in 1999 depicting the intensity of wildfires which was frequently and very recently a problem in california. Also wildfire is the name of a popular deck build in magic:the gathering, which alludes to joba’s verse.
1998 truman refers to The Truman Show, released in 1998, starring jim carrey as a character that unknowingly is the star of a reality tv show about his entire life. This alludes to how brockhampton is now becoming very popular and is constantly being filmed by the people around them, being put on stage. The beginning of the song ties this in with audio speaking about how you are being controlled and manipulated by outside sources just like jim carrey’s character.
1997 refers to the death of princess diana which occurred in...you guessed it...1997. I dont know alot about her but she was the princess of wales and was basically a household name, so when she died in a car accident in august of 1997, it was a tragedy for many.
1994 tonya refers to the US figure skater, Tonya Harding, who “In January 1994, Harding became embroiled in controversy when her ex-husband, Jeff Gillooly, orchestrated an attack on fellow US Olympian Nancy Kerrigan. After the 1994 Lillehammer Games had ended, Harding ultimately pleaded guilty to hindering the prosecution and was banned for life on June 30, 1994” (from wiki)
So i think the general idea behind the album “the best days of our lives” is that it refers to the 90’s, in which the members of brockhampton grew up in and is often referred to as a great time due to the rise of tech and blah blah blah. But i think what theyre trying to do here is bring up a person/movie from each year that people associate with the 90’s and think “oh yeah i remember that. That was cool” but once you think more deeply about these things, you also see the negative sides of them, such as the wildfires of today, the cameras always on us, the tragic death of a beloved woman, and the downfall of a famous US athlete. So the best days can also be the worst days, but you always remember the good stuff more.
