      @nashonbenjamin9563 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Yes, but I kinda remember the incident differently than cube. As per King-Sun, he played Cube a song with the Wicked hook. Months later Cube comes out with his song. Same thing with Cypress Hill. They played a song with their hook, then Cube comes out with a song with similar hook. Fortunately his skin in the game outweighs these two blemishes on an otherwise brilliant career.

    This interview revealed a number of gems. The one that struck me most is when Cube spoke on his past beef with Common. I never understood it until this interview. I also recall Common referencing the beef in his bars in one of my favorite tracks by The Roots "Act Too (Love of My Life)." Cube still has the venom he had in my childhood but he also has that full grown game on full display. Many blessings to all who represent the culture in such a beautiful light!

    Brings back memories of how it was in the late 80s early 90s. I saw and lived Cali culture in 89 coming from NYC. You really had to leave out of NY to see and appreciate different styles of music like me. That East vs West bs had me pissed. Cube had love for the East way back then cuz he went to NY to make his first solo album with the Bomb Squad, Hank Shocklee, (Public Enemy) Strong Island New York!

    Ice Cube's nuanced views on the Police force was really refreshing to hear. Casting off all police as bad people or evil is counter productive to getting any sort of mutual respect. I also really liked his point about cop's expecting civilians to snitch on each other while not doing the same when one of their own fucks up. Predator was my first CD. Ice Cube is a legend!

    Cube, man.... He dropped some serious doses of knowledge in this one! I also like how Talib opened up/introduced it with the culture currency, that's on point in terms of respect. Cube just went ahead and added an additional million points (at least) of CC in my book...
