I'm sure cube didn't make money on those albums in this day in age. So if he has time to make albums, yes, I'm sure he has time to rap over a dre beat. LMAO - you act like it takes longer to rap over a dre beat than it takes to rap over someone else's beat.
I'm not saying they need to be in the studio crafting an entire album together. I'm saying, why can't dre throw a few unused beats at cube?

pride ... nobody wants to pick up the phone and ask for favors .. "yo dre let me get a beat" .. a lot of people feel like that kinda phone call = asking for hand outs.
making an album like man up or man down is far less work than doing even one song with dre, who is notoriously a perfectionist. so unless dre were just to hand over cube a beat without the need to be there in session with him and/or mix the final product, that song would be a project on its own.

They absolutely can do all those things you listed while still holding a grudge. And they certainly didn't put out a bunch of records. You listed 4. In 30 years, 4 records. That doesn't exactly scream best friends.
It is one thing if they were both not super rich and still trying to make it for themselves, and their time was super limited in the things they decide to do. Or if they had to pay for studio time and had to be careful who they collaborate with. But that isn't the case at all. Dre doesn't even seem to care about making money off music as he is so rich. So why can't they get together a bit more often to make some classic music? What is stopping that collaboration? IMO, what is stopping it is both refusing to reach out to each other and ask for help/ a favor.

Between 2006 and 2024 Snoop and Dre only done 3 records together. You think they held a grudge against each other during that time for some reason too? That's not an indication of anything, especially when Dre is notorious for not releasing music and when had collaborated in other ways.

What? There's at least 6 songs they released in that time period.
"Boss Life"
"Round Here"
"Imagine"
"Kush"
"One Shot, One Kill"
"Satisfiction"
Dre also mixed "I Wanna Rock". There's also the unreleased Most Westmore song with a Dre verse. They probably worked on hundreds of songs between that time, but they never came out.

I mean between TBCT and Missionary. They only did Kush, Satisfaction and One shot.
Oh and they also had Drug Test.
They def had done a lot more during that era but only 4 of them came out. And there's high possibility Dre've done records with Cube during that time as well (that unreleased Mount Westmore song, for example, and around I Am the West time)
The Predator:
Never saw the riot video version back in the day, i saw the other one that is ''Hey, that sniper cop look's like Pac?!''
John 'McDowells' Amos guest appearing too in that one.
Riot Version -
Cube said this is his favourite beat he has ever rapped on, when he first heard it he was like...Yo, Dre i want to devour this one.

That blonde rapper chick that was signed to Ruthless Records Tarrie B (the one that got punched twice in the face by Dre for sneak dissing him hard), did a cover of NBK -
--- Quote ---Death Work Professionals features Tairrie B. Murphy & Rhiis D. Lopez. (rap/vocals) with guitar & bass by Mick Murphy. Produced by Josh Lynch for Weapons Of Mass Productions. Our 2010 twist on the old school West Coast rap classic 'Natural Born Killaz' which was originally recorded by Dr Dre & Ice Cube in 1994. We recorded the song just for fun as we have always been fans of the original. Enjoy!

This was her cutting Dr Dre diss by the way, 'Ruthless Bitch' -
--- Quote ---Beatings By Dr. Dre
1. Tairrie B
Before Iggy Azalea was even born, let alone had such a nice ass, there was Tairrie B.
Tairrie B’s real name is Theresa Beth. She got her start as a part of a female dance group called Bardeux. After the release of their debut single, “Three-Time Lover,” in 1987, she decided to leave the group and become a white female rapper.
Eazy-E signed Tairrie B to a new label he started called Comptown Records, which was distributed by MCA. You’ve probably never heard of it, because Tairrie B’s 1990 debut, Power of a Woman, was the only album it ever released.
In this era, it was customary for all of the members of N.W.A. to appear on the last song of an album by an artist affiliated with the group. “The Grand Finale” by The D.O.C., for example, was the last song Ice Cube appeared on with the rest of the members of N.W.A.
The last song on Power of a Woman was supposed to be called “I Ain’t Your Bitch.” Ice Cube was going to write the lyrics. It would have been something along the lines of “It’s a Man’s World” from Amerikkka’s Most Wanted, in which the members of N.W.A. would take turns calling Tairrie B a bitch, and then she’d go off on them in the very last verse.
For some reason, she didn’t like this idea. Instead, she recorded a song called “Ruthless Bitch” dissing N.W.A. and even other Ruthless artists like JJ Fad. She said Dre looked like a faggot when he was in World Class Wreckin Cru and accused him of lifting a lot of the samples on Straight Outta Compton from Ultimate Breaks and Beats, both of which are true.
Dr. Dre heard the song, and needless to say, was none too pleased. He confronted Tairrie B and her manager at a party for the 1990 Grammys. Thinking there was no way Dr. Dre would beat up a woman, in front of Dick Clark, New Kids on the Block and Janet Jackson no less, Tairrie B refused to back down.
This ended up being a tragic miscalculation.
Here’s how Tairrie B describes what happened next in an interview with Record Mirror (me neither), as cited in the wiki:
When Dr. Dre heard the track, he turned up at the awards ceremony party, where he punched Tairrie “twice — once in the mouth and once in the eye. He hit me like Tyson, but I took it — I don’t know how.”
LAPD broke up the fight and took a statement from Tairrie B. She told them the guy who did it was the same guy who did that song “Fuck the Police.” It’s a wonder Dre didn’t somehow get shot reaching for his wallet that same evening. Later, she was paid to drop the charges. She was told her album wouldn’t come out if she didn’t.
At that point, she went back in the studio and re-recorded “Ruthless Bitch” to include a reference to Dr. Dre putting a shoe on her at the Grammys. Somehow, this version was included on Power of a Woman.
