i'm just thinking about how the two would sound together and musically they mesh together greatly. some1 tell Cube to call up J to hit up ol girl and do tha dam thang. some summertime westcoast shit would hit, plus it's always hot in Texas
-
:bomb:
no
-
u just trippin cuz she's a pop star. ice cube featuring beyonce would be an instant hit foreal foreal. their voices compliment each other's. get ur head outchur ass for a second and try 2 imagine that combo. shit could blow up off of the strength of the song ACTUALLY BEING GOOD verses it just being big on the commercial side bcuz it's 2 superstars.
-
hahaha sorry man, I pictured this and laughed.
but hey, who knows
-
this cant be life.
Ayo, D12's Bizzare and Justin Bieber. Or better yet, Oliver feat 50... :-X Kinda Not sure who is B and Who is Cube in this collabo :laugh:

The wsc song w/ Mariah Carey is great...I love that song. Chicks singing is cool...and I like the mix between chicks singing and the guys rapping...it was one of the great ingredients of the great music from the 90's.

You seem a little too excited about that. Shoulda put a 'no homo' to your post. ;)

Beyonce's pop sound doesn't match Cubes. Cube works better with soulful singers like Marsha Ambrosius or Jill Scott, who by the way would blow Beyonce out the water vocally

I'm not the one instantly coming to homosexual thoughts when I read the words "guys rapping"
There is nothing more gay than writing "no homo" after something you have just wrote. Yes, I like guys rapping. I'm pretty sure EVERYONE on this forum does too. I'm a fan of ice cube, 2pac, snoop, dre, eazy, e-40, etc. I'm NOT a fan of chicks rapping, however I am a fan of chicks singing.
-
I got a remix of Destiny Child's song "Soldier" with Ice Cube, if u want some Cube/Beyonce
Its also got Bun B & Ray Cash on it..
http://limelinx.com/files/f38a60681d05e75c7e452ebfa51c3102
but me personally i don't think it would be too great. All Cube needs is some dope production and a good hook

yeah thats pretty gangsta :LMAO:

naw y'all just hatin' on Beyonce' bcuz she's got a big name. Beyonce' is one of tha GOAT our time. I'm sorry that's not Anti-Pop enuff for some of y'all.

I hope Ice Cube works with Mack 10 and WC again, NOT beyonce.

y Euroz don't wanna hear that. Ice Cube & Beyonce' collab would b tha shit. 2 Legendz on 1 track, i don't know, some of y'all need 2 fall back off that hater shit lol

give up a lil'.. i dont mind if shes a popstar or pornstar.. but collabo wit Cube's hard lyrics and voice and beyonce doesnt sound good for me at all.. same like new eminem and rihanna.. it should never be done.. i like beyonce and rihanna, but they should stay away from rappers
-
This guys onto somethhn tryna make this happen
-
nobody said nothing when cube did that song with that gay dude jon davis from korn yell
-
NOBODY SAID ANYTHING WHEN SNOOP WAS DANCING LIKE A FAGGOT IN THE WASH EITHER.
-
they just hatin. im tryna figure out how Ice Cube & Beyonce' who are two of the best entertainers could possibly end up doin a shitty song, i just dont think that's sonically possible. y'all should stay away from that dvoidofpop syrum. Nancy Fletcher had tha softest voice ever but it sounded even better wit Pac's harder lyrics. nobody is saying make a song about Ice Cream N Bubblegum (even tho i wouldnt even doubt if they turnt that n2 a tite song), all i'm pointin out iz two legendz goin on tha same track would b incredible. how do u hate something that hasn't even been brought about yet. i think Cube is in a very comfortable position where anything he does wont look like he's sellin out. and eminem isn't ice cube either and rhianna isn't beyonce so lets get that str8.

Exactly. Rappers and singers can make great songs together, but it clearly doesn't always work. A Cube and B track would be a failure because they have completely different sounds. A gangster rapper with a pop diva? Lol. It's got to be the right combination, like Lauryn Hill with Nas, or Erykah Badu with the Roots. Beyonce doesn't even sound good with Jay-Z, how the hell is she gonna pull off a track with Cube?
-
Jay Z and Beyonce is hot, Nas and Lauren Hill is something 2 be expected, same with The Roots and Eryka Badu. Nobody was sayin shit when Truth Hurts was workin' with Rakim. Use your imagination (if u have 1)... Cube and B would be hot, y'all really gotta stop being sheep-like and closed minded all of the time.

i don't think people are hating, they just disagree with what you said. that's not a personal attack or anti-pop.
for the record i don't think this collabo would sound good either

Haha he heard it in his head and now he wants it...maybe on the new cube album

You're missing one crucial fact. Rakim isn't a gangsta rapper. And Ice Cube has been a gangsta rapper his whole career. Ice Cube and Beyonce represent two completely different genres: Hardcore gangsta rap and pop R&B. So for a collaboration to happen it would have to be Ice Cube on a Beyonce track or Beyonce on an Ice Cube track. Correct me if I'm wrong, but in his 30+ year career, Ice Cube has never done a love song or a pop R&B track. He has never made a song for the bitches. That's one of the reasons I'm such a big fan of his. If he made one now it would go against everything his whole career has been, not to mention it would sound wack and unnatural.
Okay, so the alternative is to have Beyonce on a gangsta rap song. Which would also sound completely unnatural. She's never made a gangsta rap song before and she wouldn't fit on one at all.

his gangsta rap image ..aint keepin him from gettin fucked up by a deer and starin next to keke palmer
and makin songs wit shaq
beyonce a singer..it aint like she gone do some pop shit..all cube gotta do is get her a writer n do somethin gangster..

-

We all know Cube isn't a gangster in real life. But you should understand that rapping and acting are two different things. Just think about the traits that define each. A good rapper is one who stays true to their roots and doesn't switch their style up. Those who do are labeled as sellouts. A good actor is one who can take on a variety of roles successfully. If they play the same character in every movie then they are stereotyped into that role and not considered a good actor at all. I believe Ice Cube has managed to be extremely successful at both. It's quite a slippery slope. If he only played a gangster role in his movies he would be a bad actor. If he had switched his style in hip hop he wouldn't be the gangsta rap legend he is today. His gangster rap image is a character, one which has had a huge influence in hip hop and taken on a life of its own, to the point where it has come to be the standard of gangsta rap. Changing that now would not be a good look for his career. And the fact he plays different roles in movies has allowed him to be regarded as a legitimate actor, unlike most rappers who try acting.

Hahah, WC and Mack 10 sound so out of place on that song. For me that's more evidence this collab shouldn't happen
-
naw y'all r missin tha point completely. nobody is saying that they gotta drop that high fructose syrup music, y'all r thinking in a box. i'm thinking it could be Cube's track and have Beyonce' on the hook (and who knows maybe even spit on the last 4 bars). just bcuz Beyonce's a pop star (rnb singer 1st) and Ice Cube is a ghetto rapper doesn't mean that the 2 won't mix. and Mack 10 didn't sound too outta place on that Mariah track, more like everybody else sounded outta place on that 1 lol. And besides, that song was done way b4 niggaz got tha right formula downpacked for the HipHop & RnB collab tracks, it's premature you could say.
-
whatever...that Irresistible track is tight!
-
Lol @ cube bein a ghetto rapper

have to agree with you on this one, sometimes the unexpected turns out to be knot,but it's better when it's done on the spot and not some shit made up by the sorry ass labels yell

mah man. it's okay if a little bit of politics r involved but if it's strickly on some industry machine shit then it might not live up 2 it's full potential. i mean, like i said, we're talking about 2 of the greatest artist of our time, there's really not much that can go wrong as long as u have a decent producer (i say that sternly) and something that feels good/natural. george clinton and 2pac was the shit and run dmc and aerosmith made a classic. people who would doubt this collabo r just sheep 2 this imaginary railroad called underground raw hiphop, good music is good music and i won't be salty if she's hangin' with tha boyz n tha hood.
-
but what's really funny is that everybody is undermining Beyonce's TALENT AND SKILLS as a songwriter or did y'all think the youngin' only made blowpop music.

Cube was in the Soldier Video

Really? I haven't peeped her albums but I've heard all her singles. She has talent and skills, but they don't necessarily mesh with Cube's talent and skills. Do you really think Beyonce on some gangsta shit would go over well? If I'm wrong, point me to a song she's done that would go well with Cube. I can imagine Cube with a couple R&B artists (even though he avoids doing those types of songs), and Beyonce would be one of the last people I'd expect him to do a song with. Beyonce is pretty much towards the bottom of r&b artists I'd want him to collab with, even though I'm not that interested in an R&B collab from Cube to begin with. But Beyonce? Out of all the artists you coulda picked? Shit, I'd rather hear Lauryn Hill or Jean Grae before Beyonce.

Fuck a ``gangsta`` record, not every track Cube do is hard.

I beg to differ. He certainly hasn't done any soft records.
