We all know that Ice Cube, founding member of NWA and former "hardcore gangster rapper," performs in family-friendly fluff comedy flicks aimed at the most mainstream of family audiences, but no one with any sense cuts him serious flack for that. Not only are the Friday and Barber Shop movies pretty great, but do you have any idea how big his bank account is by now? When it comes to music, what is the dude to do? It's obviously his first love, but he has about three choices: to work with the Neptunes and try to update himself; to go completely middle America and do a Broadway revue or something; or he can do what he's always done: flex his lyrical muscles, squint a lot, bark out some hardcore lines on top of slick hip-hop--you know, to try and restore his cred. A glance at the song titles will tell you which choice he made. It's interesting to know that the very rich still have problems ("Child Support") and even millionaires have to convince us all that they're tough just like they did when they were broke-ass ("Why We Thugs"). There's some real political commentary here, but it gets lost in uninspired beats and that super-dated style, genre... everything. It would seem that Cube's producers forgot to tell him that no one really cares for that '92 stuff anymore. --Mike McGonigal
アイスキューブのなんたるかっこよさ!! ★★★★★
「ギャングスタラップの産みの親がオレでなんでこんな情けない奴らが生まれてきたんだ!?」と、現在の偽物ギャングスタラップに対して5曲目で言葉を吐きだすキューブがメッチャかっこえぇ!!他とちゃうのがヒップホップの良さやのに、最近は他と同じがヒップホップの良さになってて呆れるわ↓↓
やからアイスキューブは絶対買いやと思う☆☆有名プロデューサーを起用してもアイスキューブ一色になってるもん!!
久々のアルバム ★★★☆☆
アイスキューブの7年ぶりのアルバム。久々のリリースですけどラップのカッコ良さは昔のままやっぱアイスキューブは凄いです。このアルバムの目玉はなんといってもLIL JONプロデュースの3曲だと思いますがそれらの曲はそこまでって感じです。それよりもSWIZZプロデュースのバンギンな9がオススメ!あとWC参加の16,19あたりもなかなかのいい曲です。
