Ice Cube

One of my favorite rappers and definitely one of the greatest of all time. He is the definition of the west coast rap scence and have been on top of that 2 decades now.

What you really think so?, honestly i thought Amerikkk'z most wanted was his best album he has ever written, Ice Cube is just so clever, people don't even realise he is metaphoricly pollitical, Death Certificate was just as good to. Though The Predator and onwards were still great, but he has never matched up to his first two. I did not enjoy his War and Peace volumes, especially volume two. Still good albums though, i was just saddened by Ice Cubes choice of lyrical direction. Laugh Now, Cry Later was probably just a bit better than W&P Volume two. However Raw Footage i was really impressed with, it could of been mistaken for a 90's album, ice really proved himself, i think he got back on track. Though I Am The West was his worst by far.

He has some very clever tracks such as Man Vs Machine and Hood Robben, those tracks are great. But Soul On Ice, Fat Cat & Urbanian just ruined Ice Cube totally. Even the Couldn't Make It On Her Own and Ya'll Know How I Am, though i must admit OMG does good on both of them. However Ice's punchlines were a lot of just movie references and characters, you had to know your stuff to understand them, i liked his disses against the Mainstream industry. However I Rep That West, Drink The Kool-Aid, Money Or Your Life, Life In Cali & No Country For Young Men were great songs, reminded me of his back in the day raps, just great. And that Tiger Woods burn on No Country was just unforgettable.

Ice Cube is a great artist and actor.

And the original Friday with him and Chris Tucker is one of my favorite movies.

The way he showed enthusiasm and spazzed at the BET cypher last year has me hoping if he puts out another album he will rape around that style,I Am The West was pretty average.Not to hot on beat selection but it seems that's the case with alot of rappers I like these days. :shifty:

My expectations for I Am The West was pretty high (as mostly everyones) and it just turned out okay, i didnt like the southern beats on it, that was a BIG turn off for me

And yeah i agree, his BET cypher was pretty good, i think we will see another album soon :smoking:
