This ain't 1992 nikka.
You think we don't want another ghetto bird, or another endangered species or steady mobbin? you think we think that's wack? no of course not. but he's changed, so rather than waste our time and pray for something that's not gonna happen, i'd rather cube do songs like that than most of the shyt on i am the west. you assuming cube put out like 5 albums last decade.

Or you could just give up Cube like any fan with half a brain did years ago.
i don't think we'll get it.
at best (which is still very fukking good), we'll get nikka trap.
i don't mind cube talking about the state of hip hop though if he's not gonna talk about politics and race. i mean using his last album as an example, the only good songs were the ones where he was doing that. his last verse on i am the west (song) was dope.

Ice Cube needs to do an album with Killer Mike. Killer Mike proved on a few occasions he can get Cube to spit fire on tracks. Pressure and Bad Day/Worst Day are classics.

Oh look, the resident west coast dikkrider in the house!
U not lyin they do have chemistry...we all know cube at this point is at his best when he has a concept and a message...the flows and rhymes don't blow u away anymore overall...but give em a concept he can be passionate about and he still delivers...songs where he talkin about bein a gangster? Are basically a waste of a track nowadays...there's no place for don mega cube in 2012

^i'm still mad that never happened. AND I'm mad that a supergroup with Scarface, Kool G Rap, Ice Cube and Bushwick Bill never happened. Would have been classic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDxa0ze_AfI

At this point it seems like Cube is trying to hard. I mean on one hand you got him saying his album title is going to be "Everything's Corrupt" and then you have his ass up there doing these coors light commercials, and shytty shows on TBS. Which I'm all for, get your money thats the smart thing to do. BUT, he is no longer the man behind social commentary now, and he is trying too hard. I dont even know what formula he is talking about btw, the one where he has some west coast tracks, and mixes a southern sound with the rest of the tracks and calls it pure west coast shyt?

This is the most objective I've ever seen you be. You should keep it up.
And I agree. But I don't think he can continue utilizing the production he has been and excell. He should come with a sample based sound.
