Ice Cube's G-Funk era :

Lethal Injection (as you have already heard)
Bootlegs n B-Sides (a lot of remixes and unreleased ice cube g-funk material, like the dope ass You Know How We Do It remix, Good Day Remix...)
Planet Of Da Apes (lench Mob 2nd album, g-funked out)

Predator, Death Certificate etc are not g-funk records if you want to hear songs in the style of Lethal Injection regarding it in Ice Cube's style check the ones i listed. The producers (QD III, Dr Jam, Madness4Real etc...) and the time of the records are from the same early 90's era.

Also check out Ghetto Bird (Dr Jam funky remix), Higher the lead g-funk song from Higher Learning soundtrack, Bop Gun single version etc...

Ice Cube was rockin the afro around this time, check out the videos like Really Doe too.


Ok, thanks!

might have to check out that Ape album then...was listening to Death Certificate on Amazon, and I gotta admit it sounded abit too "Predator-like" for my tastes...even though that one with Kam is smooth as a poet.

I couldnt help it but to find it super cool that Madness4Real produced on Lethal Injection...seeing as how that's two Danes  8) (like me  :-[)

to me i think all of those albums sound completely different, u got amerikkkas which had the bomb squad beats and guest spots from public enemy and the whole album was political, whereas death certificate had some old school funk sound to it and the songs had more of a social message as cube went back to makin more westcoast sounding records....the predator had like a raw grimier sound, less polished and basically reflected the rodney king riot situation....and lethal injection was straight g funk records

Couldn't agree with you more. Cube definitely was like a ghetto reporter about the state of the hood and america to a certain extent with those albums.

yup and he did damn near predict the riots as he had his finger on the pulse of the political and socioeconomic climate during the time.

he did his best to help minorities out of the situation (as he was wise enough to blame the opppressors and the minorities themselves, it's never just one party's fault) and when he saw that they just wanted to keep not voting, shooting, drugging, and burning and not wanting to help themselves he decided he was just gonna party it out too since. damn...those records are sick...all 4 of his first LPs are approx 10 bucks each in the used section of amoeba in LA. gonna cop that asapolis.
