ICE CUBE - MAN UP (Official Discussion)

<< < (30/42) > >>

The Predator:
Eric Sermon of the east-coast produced the best west-coast lick on the album, beat bounces on some Zapp style vibes with some nice scratch work.
Should of been longer so Eric could of spit a verse too, even more amped for his upcoming album.

I think the last time Cube/Sermon worked together was on this gem -



'Bring Every-Body' is another lively number, funky!

The intro/skits are not listed on the album as tracks, instead blend in-to the songs...movie samples i noticed so far are -

Scarface (1983) - 'Man-Power' - As the intro it set's the tone for the album title, it's purposely provocative...got a chuckle out of me  ;D

From reddit, regarding the opening intro -

That’s quite a way to open an album. Times have changed. I won’t be listening unfortunately.

rOk_Night_888-

for you

Holly-Wood Shuffle (1987) -  'Before Hip-Hop'
The Killers (1964) - 'Respect My Space'
The Mack (1973)  - 'That Salt ad Pepper'



For this scene Reagan went un-scripted with the lines...''Well, i can change that in a hurry *Smack*''...ahaha.

The skit before 'Free-Dumb' was jokes too -

''Why is the internet not working?
Why are you not working?
Why is the internet not working?
The same reason you're not working
Did you turn off the internet?
Maybe''   ;)
