Who writes doper lyrics Ice Cube or The DOC ????
« on: March 03, 2009, 03:54:18 PM »
I say Cube . For example ,  "3 Strikes You In" ..Cube parallels a baseball game and felonies with perfection. Who else could do that ?

DOC...No one can do it better has some ahead of it's time lyricism, plus he's written a ton of stuff for other artists we don't know about.  Cube is tight, but I think that the DOC is more advanced.  I never heard of DOC using a ghostwriter....he does the ghostwriting:)

DOC is doper when he was writing for himself. But Ice Cube's lyrics are better than the lyrics DOC ghostwrites.

D.O.C. how the fuck can you guys forgett about The Chronic & Doggystyle D.O.C. & RBX wrote alot on them! And If DEEP COVER/187UM wasn't written by the D.O.C. I can't see it.

Even that Snoop & R-Kelly track "Thats that shit".....

they are both great writers, but you can't compare them IMO

It is hard.  Sadly too much of the DOC's work is uncredited. You can hear his influence or read about a few songs, but sadly I don't think we'll ever know the extent of his work which I believe is actually huge.  I think that he had his hand in a lot off classics credited to other rappers, like cube, snoop, dre..and lots of others.

i actually had a different argument than you: i should have added they have their own style  ;)

but you made a valid point.
i guess you can say that the DOC doesn't get the props he deserves.

He didn't write Snoops parts on Doggystyle, he just teached Snoop & told him how to make better songs. From what I've read.

DOC's lyrics on "No One Can Do It Better" are dope. But u gotta remember that Ice Cube in 88-92 (or 88-96 actually) was something crazy.

So if u only count own lyrics. It's Ice Cube. And if you count ghostwrited lyrics its probably DOC.

They wrote together and picked the best verses...that's what I've read.

Well something like that anyway. People just seem to forget that Snoop can write his own lyrics too since he used ghostwriters on his last album

yeah but he still can write his own shit and can freestyle shit too. maybe he gets writer's block. but anyway my vote's for the d.o.c. his name is etched in many classics then and to come.

"Doggystyle" is where he started using DOC help by that I mean ghostwriting. LMMFAO.Snoop is trash. This is a hard call ima go wit Cube. Who Ghostwrote "Keep Their Heads Ringin'"
