Multi-Platinum and Award Winning Hip-Hop Superstar Ice Cube makes his highly anticipated return to the mic with the debut of his eighth solo LP, titled “Raw Footage“. Following the 2006 release of the critically acclaimed, “Laugh Now, Cry Later“, which debuted at #2 on the R&B/Hip Hop sales chart and #4 on the Top 200 sales chart, making it the years highest selling independent release in hip hop, the West Coastﾒs Greatest Rap Lyrist is back again.
Raw Footage which will be released by Ice Cubeﾒs independently owned label, Lench Mob Records, will hit shelves and online on August 19th.
Boasting production from producers such as Maestro, Emile, DJ Crazy Toones, Teak ﾓDa Beatsmithﾔ Underdue and Dee Underdue and featuring guests Musiq Soulchild, Young Jeezy, The Game and WC, Cube looks to continue his reign as rapﾒs heavy weight champion, showcasing his creative and lyrical genius throughout 17 solid tracks.
With the streets already talking about the earlier released buzz single & video ﾓGangsta Rap Made Me Do It,ﾔ which MTV boasted as the first great song and video of 2008, Cube follows up with the albumﾒs first official single and video, ﾓDo Ya Thang.ﾔ
