Aries Spears says he can’t stand Ice Cube as a lyricist or an actor, and says he hates Ice Cube’s song “It Was a Good Day.”

Cube had one of the greatest fall offs in rap history.
He had a short window, he basically started in 1989 and his prime was finished after 1993.

His film career is pretty bad too. Like 2 or 3 classics and a bunch of trash. Pac has more classic films and he died 30 years ago.

what's up with these dudes on social media always talking negative shyt about people to go viral? And why do people keep responding to these clowns?

You answered your own question. To go viral. Its like the chicken or the egg, because I believe Aries honestly thinks this.

People will click on any kind of outrage bait. Even if it makes them angry, they're more likely to watch. You watch one of those vids, then your recommendations are full of them, and the brainwashing begins. I guess thats more in terms of right wing propaganda, but also in terms of negative and empty calorie style content.

Trespass is an underrated hood classic, but I wouldn't add that to the list because a lot of people don't know it exists

3 kings was dope
yes it was. I forgot that one. Are we there yet was a cool family comedy too, but I figure no one here watching these type of movies, so I didn't bother. Also, Lottery Ticket was funny. I know Cube doesn't have a list of great films like Denzel or Wesley, but to say he only has 2 or 3 classic films in 34 years is insane :laugh:

I mean I would disagree that those are all classics. Friday, Boyz, and possibly 3 Kings. I actually like the rest of those films but they're like B tier films, along with Anaconda. They aren't amazing films, like stuff I would play in the background while I'm doing something else.

He has a lot of bad films.

You think Higher learning is a B tier film? Compared to what? Higher Learning is definitely better than every movie Pac made outside of Poetic Justice, Juice, and Above the Rim. And I like Pac movies too. I think his best acting job was Gang Related and that was a good film as well, but Higher Learning was great. Cube definitely has been in some bad films. Ghosts from Mars and Anaconda, etc, but the 6 I named can't be denied.

To have such a narrow view and appreciation for talent in an art form just seems so boring and damn near small minded to me, damn near child like. It's having a chicken tenders and fries pallet but for artistic ability.

I guess that's why he's made some of the awful comedic choices he's made too, because he can only see it from his perspective. For instance, he doesn't have the ability to understand and appreciate that some people don't find the funny in playing a filthy pedophile that's likes to watch kids bathe. He only sees it from his limited comedic perspective, and to him that shyt must have been down right hilarious, to still follow through with it beyond an initial idea. Not a decision most would make, but to each his own I guess:manny:
