ICE CUBE - MAN DOWN (Offical Discussion)

[Sccit]

Turning up the volume a bit, aren’t we? It’s funny how I started talking about Ice Cube, but somehow you’ve escalated to name-calling, personal insults, and racist commentary that perpetuates harmful narratives undermining the validity of biracial identities, much less Black community itself, which has a broad range of identities and experiences. Seems like every time the conversation isn’t leaning your way, the hostility level rises a notch. Maybe take a breather before coming back. The album will still be here.

good job weirdo. you are now on warning status.. meaning your posts need to be approved to go through.

when you tone down the spamming, i’ll have you taken off.

Ice Cube has dropped the music video for “It’s My Ego” directed by Gabriel “VIDEOGOD” Hart.

In the visual, the 55-year-old presides over a comical church service that is interrupted by a masked gunman, with Ice getting the last laugh. He shares of the video: “I wanted to have fun, and I wanted to bring fun back to Hip-Hop. It’s a fun video, and the song…a lot of people think ego is a bad thing but you know you should celebrate your ego. It makes you unique. We don’t all want to be the same. That would be boring. Be yourself, and celebrate who you are. Be proud of yourself, [and] proud of your ego.”

The rapper also shared details of his upcoming album Man Down, set to drop on November 22nd, and explained his motivations behind the project: “Right after we finished the Mount Westmore record, I was still ready to go,” shared the BIG3 founder, referring to the 2022 collaborative effort from the supergroup formed with Cube, Snoop Dogg, E-40, and Too $hort. It’s Ice Cube music. It’s music I think we all can relate to. If you listen to the whole album, you’ll know why I called it Man Down. And it’s a record that I’m proud of .. No doubt. It’s been publicized that me and B-Real been tight, fell out, and got tight again. And that’s how it’s supposed to be. Family, sometimes you fall out, but when it’s real, you come back together.”

B-Real sounds unlistenable these days, hope he steps it up.
That last re-union they had on the Shaq song years ago sounded forced.

That foo Cube sound lazy and tired to me. He handled that Dodger game tho - where's the thunder on the new cuts? Put some elbow grease into it dogg haha. I remember how he was on Bonnie & Clyde and WSC. Who is fuck is this foo? Haha.

seems like streaming numbers and how it get succesfull on charts, it proved me i am wrong about this "my ego" single. because i was thinking it is wack, outdated and also funny to choose a single like this in 2024. charts and single sales tell opposite.

To be fair, those charts didn’t exist in his prime.

Congratz to Cube well deserved. Comparing this success to Snoop and Dre is unfair right now because Cube dropped a video for it too. We will see what numbers Snoop and Dre do once the whole package drops.
