So I finally listened to Ice Cube's Death Certificate front to back!

Had my parents cop this for me when it dropped. And lost my mind.

Still one of my favorite albums of all-time. Nothing tops Cube's music during this era.

Im going to go out on a limb and say Prime Cube is the greatest writer in hip hop history.

Hip hop at its finest. They called it gangsta rap but DC is wayyy more than that. Dude was just talking about the ups and downs of south central LA, or any hood, USA. Nothing glorifying the lifestyle just telling you about the rise and fall of being in the streets, and even adjacent to the streets.

Truth.

The media tried to minimize it, but the content was way more powerful than just "gangsta rap".
