AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted
Lethal Injection

His collaboration with George Clinton, 'One Nation Under A Groove' ('Bopgun') is also a classic!

Cube is one of the true Westside-pioneers!

Ice Cube-one of the best west coast rapper in the histroy of the genre. Amerikka's Most Wantedand Death Certificate are hip-hop masterpieces. Cube's a great lyricist and a great storyteller. He was like a west coast gangster version of Chuck D. He had anger, rage, ambition, intelligence and a strong stance. He's super brillant on songs like "Bird In Tha Hand" from Death Certificate. A lot of rapper/lyrcists now-a-days could learn a thing or two from Cube(O'Shea Jackson...his real name). He directed Prince's "Love Sign" video. If you look at the video real carefully, there's the scene with Prince sitting in the console chair in his studio and you can see him holding up an issue of VIBE magazine with Ice Cube on the cover of it.

Cubes got some hot traxx! I like "Today Was a Good Day," among others. Homey must have a greatest hits. (?)

Totally off track... He's got one of the best groomed beards in the business. biggrin

Ice Cube's great. I got his greatest hits album. Totally cool. Best tracks for me are "It Was A Good Day" "You Can Do It" and "Hello"

From "Amerikkka's Most Wanted" through to "The Predator" he was on top angry form. War & Peace 1 + 2 seem to suggest he's softened and lost the inspiration for anything other than his film career...

Ice Cube is wonderful no matter what...I think the anger in his voice turns me on a little bit. shrug

In case anyone doesn't know Priority is releasing remastered versions if Ice Cube's cd's with extra bonus tracks so be on the lookout.

Cube was the truth from "Straight Outta Compton" up until "Bow Down" by the Westside Connection. I hope him signing with Dr.Dre can light the fire again cause it's been missing on the last couple albums.

Favorite albums: "Death Certificate" and "Lethal Injection."

Other than what others have named, one of my favs is off of "Lethal Injection" -- "You Know How We Do It."

"death certificate" is my favorite ice cube album, although i think they're all great (except for "peace"... peace can suck my balls)...

"death certificate" is probably my favorite because his anger is more focused on this record than any other... he's pissed at white people, korean people, the police, politicians, hoes that don't give up the nappy dugout, hoes that pass around std's... everyone, really...

my favorites on this one are "steady mobbin'" and "no vaseline"... nod...
