If Ice Cube wanted to fund my album and put it out I would be all for it. They homeboys and Cube wants to see WC succeed and do well. Lord knows Cube does not need the money from it so it makes sense.

Lord knows Cube does not need the money from it so it makes sense.I'm not saying it's bad for WC to have Ice Cube help him get that exposure, but to have him so obviously involved with the album gives a hint of weakness, as if WC can't do it on his own. Surely, Cube knows ways to help WC get his name out there, but his involvement in selling the album is too obvious to go unnoticed. Cube probably did some great stuff to improve the quality of the album, but at the end of the day it's WC's album, not some collaboration project!
Learn something about marketing bro.
This is a smart move, period, end of story. This shows nothing about weakness. Ice Cube is a brand name, he is huge, wayyyyyyyy more people recognize him than WC. People gonna see that poster, see Cube, and they may be cube fan's but not really know about WC, but they gonna check it out because of Cube.
What the hell is wrong with Cube's obvious involvement to get this record to sell? Isn't that the point of the record...make it sell? If it wasn't, than I am sure there would be no poster at all and WC would be giving these cd's out for free.
