I AM THE WEST
Wed, Feb 24, 2010 at 7:07 AM By: Ice Cube
I AM THE WEST...is the name of my new record. After completing about 65% of my music, this is the perfect title. This shit is cocky, no apologies, West Coast gangsta shit. I can't help it. That's what I do. June seems too tight for a release, but July is very doable. We'll see how things go. Now that I have my title, I can work on the concept of my photoshoot and artwork. I want to provide early merch before the drop date.
For 7 or 8 years now the West Coast has been trying to do music that appeals to the South and Mid-West. The words, "too West Coast" would be heard throughout the industry whenever our music was played. Even by our own dj's. Left coast MC's were now trying to change their sound to cater to all the followers. We lost our way. Thank God for b-boys like Snoop, The Game & WC for keeping the West alive, but we were all guilty of over reaching. No more. At least not from me. I do it how I feel it; not how I think it should be done. Radio fucked us up. I hate the politics at radio. I don't know who to pay to get my shit played. Having a hot song is not enough. Ridiculous.
I AM THE WEST. It's coming....
Keep It Gangsta
Ice Cube
With the southern influence in his last two records maybe he should rename it to "I Am The SouthWest." :P
Regardless, I'm looking forward to hearing it. Should be solid.

LOL i have nothing but respect and admiration for cube, but his last 2 albums were ass for the most part...i dont care if your RAPPING about gangsta shit..that doesnt make it west..i want a west coast soundscape, west coast FEEL to the beats..not that locs on bullshit with jeezy, or that awful lil jon track...dude is guilty himself of the catering to the south shit...
-
Nice to see Cube dropping some new shit for this summer. Hopefully he will bring that Westcoast sound

I agree with everything cube said except for saying that snoop is one of the guys trying to keep the west alive snoop tries to keep the west alive on the underground independent mixtape tip but when it comes to the mainstream he doesn't.
-
Well he's guilty of doing some southern shit as well although I've enjoyed his last 2 records, no question or argument it had some "south" music on it too (i got my locs on, go to church, etc). Shit even the names he mentioned (minus WC) but Game & Snoop did some "south" shit recently too.
And plus that preview of "it is what it is" we heard in his latest studio video sounded south as well.
With all that said, can't wait for the new record ;)
-
Cube still has the ability to drop some dope verses
but if you want to be the west YOU HAVE TO FEATURE NEW WEST ARTISTS

Yeah no just snoop is guilty game has been making south sounding records also eastcoast sounding shit L.A.X really comes to mind Money and Let Us live definitely didn't sound westcoast.

:eh: what happened to I am the south?

I think Cube just put some uneeded pressure on himself naming the album that, as critics will shred it to bits if it even has anything other than a westcoast sound on it. But if anyone can pull this off, it is Cube. I am amped for this.
-
Shit sounds like fuckin' lava. If it's gonna be this hardbody, I can't fuckin' wait!! Who gives a fuck who does the beats, long as they straight bangers and hard as fuck, shit's all good in the real hood. Word up!!
Hit 'em wit the anthems Cube.

One of the 2 tracks he previewed lately was on that stinky southern shit, fans on his blog told him so.

i cant wait for a new cube album, his last 2 cds were dope as fuck. 2 of the dopest cds in their respective years!

"Thank God for b-boys like Snoop, The Game & WC for keeping the West alive"
LOL you can took wc seriuskly represtin westcoast hard with his music instead to game and snoop...ice cube´s time is over after the bow down album he unfornatly lost it.
listen to Crooked I,Horse Shoe Gang,Eastwood,YaBoy,Kida,Coss,Bishop Lamont,G Malone,pac div,u-n-i and fashawn they´re makin real westcoast music with REAL LYRICS.
-
DubCNN: So Cube how did you come up with I Am The West for your new album title?
Cube: Ohh.. well I looked at dude's T-Shirt when dahdah (DBaker) was shootin my video. And that the rest is history.
DubCNN: So you looked at someone's T-Shirt?
Cube: Pretty much.. and I Am The West.. you know.
DubCNN: Yep.
Cube: Check out this new joint I did with Lil Jon..
-
For those who can't read, let me emphasize
Thank God for b-boys like Snoop, The Game & WC for keeping the West alive, but we were all guilty of over reaching. No more. At least not from me.
He acknowledged that he, Snoop and them got on the south stuff, but saying no more. he also is right. Who has been more relevant on the mainstream level from the west coast than Snoop, Game and him? He right. Read in context
-
Real spit comin from the Don Mega....Laugh now cry later was dope....but raw footage sounded like he was catering to the south. I'm glad he ain't wit that no more...album should be a banger. 8)

dude you are WAY OFF.. Sayin only WC represented the west all the way. on Guilty By Affiliation there were some south inspired shit.. and you said Game didnt do west shit.. Once again, wrong. LAX Files, State Of Emergency etc. etc.
on Snoop, you were basically right.
and listin G. Malone and Pac Div as REAL westcoast artists you are way off again.
I know that G. Malone does a lot of west shit on tapes and features but when an artists BIG SINGLE is a south joint they are NOT representing the west in any way. They are trying to increase numbers by sounding like Lil Jon, Sean P, Chamillionaire etc. etc.
remember, this is all IMO ! Im not goin in to any e-beef.

g malone did that stuff a few times, but we all know why because he wants to push his album and didn´t game used autotune and south feats? LOL did you listened to pac div?
lol tha cube didn´t mentioned xzibit!!!! RESTLESS IS STILL A CLASSIC and we not need to talk about pimp my ride and did you listend to this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAzMWMvy8VU so westcoast!!!!

havent heard all of pac div shit.. but the shit I did hear sounds south-ish to me..
on what single did Game use autotune? and yeah, he had lil wayne on his single? The music still wasnt south-ish.. ?

His last 2 albums were tight as hell even with this southern influence. And for anybody trying to say Snoop wouldn't try to keep the west alive, hell get your facts right and do some reasearch of what he has done over last 10 years (not only solo records).
I don't know how to feel about this title of Cube's new record... When he names it "I Am The West" he has to do some west coast sounding music. Something like "Stand Tall" off RF or "Spittin Pollaseeds" off LNCL. But I have the feelings that the title won't say too much about the music, unfortunately. But I think even with a misleading title I will enjoy his new album as much as his last two.
I sometimes imagine what would happen if he sticks to what the title says, imagine such a tracklist:

Snoop ain't made a West Coast album since Tha Last Meal. Game catered to the West on Doctor's Advocate, 90% of that album was West Coast. So yeah Cube is spittin' truth and it's good that he admits he guilty of following the South. If he stays true to his word and makes a West Coast album then I'll cop no matter what.

cant put snoop and gangsta in the same sentence
snoop and soulja boy.....end of story

that shit would be corny ass fuck bcuz you would have way too many vrr-vrr-vmuuhvs with the wobbly standard westcoast bass.
now i couldn't say specifically on who to produce it (hopefully a duel new and old producer combos on the songs - Sir Jinx w/Best Kept Secret or 9th Wonder & Terrace Martin) bcuz it's gotta come from Cube & the people who aren't yes-mens and bitches around him. it's gotta be something raw but slightly inspirational, something not always too uptempo or too slow but something to make your brain react like "not dyin" from Sticky Fingaz, and maybe a deadsoul track or two, the music kinda has to be bipolar in a sense. and lyrically just make the music sound good with some real effort into how the flow sounds and not just that standard old talk-yell rap, some real cadence and fire and not not that half ass'd shit. i brought LNCL, i wasn't mad i brought it really, and Raw Footage was cool but those albums weren't tha Cube that everybody wanted hear. i be all for artist growth but you have to always stick to what works and what the people wanna hear, just hopefully original than tha songs b4 it.

problem isnt a good enough rapper to be on a high caliber rappers album
if he could have another hit like mack did wit connected for life......damn his album would be dope

AND NONE OF THOSE GAY ASS PIANO CHORDS LIKE "GANGSTA RAP MADE ME DO IT" type of renditions. Those are tha shitty sounding sounds, make something that hits harder. I wonder what Cube's album would sound like without the super fancy mixing equipment like from b4.
-
i hope the album isn't too preachy either. that shit would blow. sonically, something RAW but lightly scattered with electricity throughout the album. something a lil' sinister and muddy without the corny cliche sounds and organs and shit like that. i dont wanna be at a punk rock rave but i dont wanna fall asleep either. a few cameos from the devil thruout da album would be cool too, but no halloween shit tho
-
I think Cube just put some uneeded pressure on himself naming the album that, as critics will shred it to bits if it even has anything other than a westcoast sound on it. But if anyone can pull this off, it is Cube. I am amped for this.
i would buy it if he managed to pull it off, but he won't :P

great stuff, i hpe its just westcoast vibe to it and hopfully there will be collabos on this too
-
great stuff, i hpe its just westcoast vibe to it and hopfully there will be collabos on this too
a str8 WestCoast only vibe would be pretty wack bcuz once again Cube would put himself in a box and more people than ever would come out tha woodwork bitching (with good reason too). keep that shit original, get some gumbo shit on tha beats and keep that shit rockin. WestCoast only sounding albums in 2010 is :sleep: foreal foreal

but if you want to be the west YOU HAVE TO FEATURE NEW WEST ARTISTS
For what? Most of these New West niggas suck. I'd like to see Cube work with G.Malone but thats Mack 10's boy so don't see that happening. And Bishop? Lol I'd rather barf in a bag then eat it for lunch the next day.
If anything he needs to reach out to the vets, just not the usual. Him and Snoop can't make a good record together, its been proven. And him and WC collabin is almost boring now. I wanna see him reach out to Yukmouth, Too Short, Daz, Crooked I, B-Real, etc.
And for anybody trying to say Snoop wouldn't try to keep the west alive, hell get your facts right and do some reasearch of what he has done over last 10 years (not only solo records).
Like what? Game has done more for the West in the last 6 years than Snoop has in the last 10.

well, sorry for dreamin... but this would be something like a tracklist from heaven...
Wow this nigga just made up a whole album. I've always wondered who does that.

Snoop ain't made a West Coast album since Tha Last Meal.
real talk. snoop is the biggest sellout, and warren g is a big sellout too.
So yeah Cube is spittin' truth and it's good that he admits he guilty of following the South. If he stays true to his word and makes a West Coast album then I'll cop no matter what.
yeh i'll definately cop that aswell if he sticks to his words.

And what about that Cube & WC collabo, what mentioned a few YEARS ago? ???
-
06 Killer In The White House ft. Paris [Prod. by Paris]
it doesn't make sense that they've never collaborated before, as Paris was influenced by Cube's oldest work

dont know bout that but wouldnt be suprised
and the daz/wc tape

His last 2 albums were tight as hell even with this southern influence. And for anybody trying to say Snoop wouldn't try to keep the west alive, hell get your facts right and do some reasearch of what he has done over last 10 years (not only solo records).
I don't know how to feel about this title of Cube's new record... When he names it "I Am The West" he has to do some west coast sounding music. Something like "Stand Tall" off RF or "Spittin Pollaseeds" off LNCL. But I have the feelings that the title won't say too much about the music, unfortunately. But I think even with a misleading title I will enjoy his new album as much as his last two.
I sometimes imagine what would happen if he sticks to what the title says, imagine such a tracklist:

that shit would be corny ass fuck bcuz you would have way too many vrr-vrr-vmuuhvs with the wobbly standard westcoast bass.
now i couldn't say specifically on who to produce it (hopefully a duel new and old producer combos on the songs - Sir Jinx w/Best Kept Secret or 9th Wonder & Terrace Martin) bcuz it's gotta come from Cube & the people who aren't yes-mens and bitches around him. it's gotta be something raw but slightly inspirational, something not always too uptempo or too slow but something to make your brain react like "not dyin" from Sticky Fingaz, and maybe a deadsoul track or two, the music kinda has to be bipolar in a sense. and lyrically just make the music sound good with some real effort into how the flow sounds and not just that standard old talk-yell rap, some real cadence and fire and not not that half ass'd shit. i brought LNCL, i wasn't mad i brought it really, and Raw Footage was cool but those albums weren't tha Cube that everybody wanted hear. i be all for artist growth but you have to always stick to what works and what the people wanna hear, just hopefully original than tha songs b4 it.
nah bro, you corny

Cube still has the ability to drop some dope verses
but if you want to be the west YOU HAVE TO FEATURE NEW WEST ARTISTS
For what? Most of these New West niggas suck. I'd like to see Cube work with G.Malone but thats Mack 10's boy so don't see that happening. And Bishop? Lol I'd rather barf in a bag then eat it for lunch the next day.
If anything he needs to reach out to the vets, just not the usual. Him and Snoop can't make a good record together, its been proven. And him and WC collabin is almost boring now. I wanna see him reach out to Yukmouth, Too Short, Daz, Crooked I, B-Real, etc.
And for anybody trying to say Snoop wouldn't try to keep the west alive, hell get your facts right and do some reasearch of what he has done over last 10 years (not only solo records).
Like what? Game has done more for the West in the last 6 years than Snoop has in the last 10.
