Rolling Stone rated his album unfavorable, cacs thought he was a racist Thug who hated Jews and Koreans. Ice Cube was accused of helping incite the violence that occurred between Asians and Blacks in the 1992 L.A. Riots. The album never got much radio play. The state of Oregon declared any display of Ice Cube's image in retail stores throughout the state illegal. The United Kingdom had to delete two tracks from the album in order for it to be sold over there , because they didn't want no racial incitement and they didn't support miniority racism and anti-Semitism.

What you think ?

shyt would never come out today. Never in a million years. Unless it was directly to Soundcloud or some shyt. The Jew references alone would get him blackballed.

Everything would get him blackballed. Rap fans were :wow: over that weak ass Meek vs Drake beef....imagine if "No Vaseline" came out.

If the album was edited down to what would be considered PC in 2016 it would be like 2 songs long. If that.

Cube would have been bodied in a week. His music would have been erased from the Internet and everyone would forget him. Censorship has gone too far for an album to be made in today's climate.

c00ns and c00nettes would be denouncing him in droves
The asian bytch that got mad that chris rock didn't mention other minorities in his oscar monologue would've had a heart attack
White folks would denounce him and black people as a whole

Absolutely. Beyonce couldn't even say "I like my baby hair with baby hair and Afros" without catching flack, imagine what they'd say about Death Certificate. :thisdude:
