Strange! I had this cd bumping in the car today. This album is such a classic! Ice Cube was THE man in the late 80s & first half of 90s.

Untrue...although I respect your opinion.  You can't deny that Hood Mentality and Hood Robbin, amongst many others he released recently is not the Cube we all respect.  The message is essentially the same and that is when he is at his best.

I gotta say this is better than AMW. Best Cube solo album.

You can't deny that Hood Mentality and Hood Robbin, amongst many others he released recently is not the Cube we all respect. 

You kind of lost me with all the double negatives. If you're implying them new Cube songs have the feel of the classic Cube I'll have to disagree. I don't think WSC Cube did either but that shit waS raw as fuck just the same.

No doubt.
maybe content wise maybe...but his delivery and flow now sounds fake and forced...he took too much time away from the mic and he lost his edge....
