of course everybodys gonna say 2 Pac ,  but i say Ice Cube is the biggest Icon dude hands down , Movies and music and directing  nwa , boyz n the hood , amerikka most , death certificate , baber shop fliccs , Friday       movie Franchise    etc etc

Voted Snoop, but Cube is def one of the biggest WC icons. 2Pac's reign was too short to even be considered imo. Had a huge impact on rap, but career was cut short.

snoop says one thing then when his album sales dont do well he goes against what he made
i mean fuck tha grammys?
come on g




yeah
1.still not everyone knows who snoop is....especially the older people
2.should he be considered a icon even tho he sold out and made muzik for the white people only?

then some would say pac made muzik from the heart and never sold out
so pac might take it cuz pac bein from the eastcoast is better than snoop sellin out
  Who says Snoop makes music only for white people? And plenty of people make music from the heart, what's your point?
damn u still havent logged off...ur hurting everyone with all this wack shit u drop, it hurts more then getting the swine flu

and ice t wasnt and isnt a big enough icon...he hasnt or didnt do enough
hes in csi right now clockin in a 9-5....thats not what any icon should be doin...haha

Ice-T because he was the first to do the gangster rap! Secondly Eazy-E for bringing us N.W.A. Ice Cube used to rap like the beastie boys when he first started.

ice-t recognizes SCHOOLY D was the first gangsta rapper

Let me re-phase first WEST-COAST gangsta rapper. Another thing Ice-T brought to the West Coast was the gangsta Image. Alot of you guys on this site are youngsters that started to listen to rap when the chronic 2001 came out. Ask anyone that has been listening to hip hop for over 20 years and they will let you know how influential ICE-T has been on the WEST, EAST COAST and all over the world. Ice Cube used to rap like the beastie boys. Dr.Dre was doing dance music while Ice-T was dropping that gangsta shit. Yeah everyone saying Pac here because they picking there favorite artist. But all and all he wasn't considered an Icon untill he died and to even consider him West-Coast isn't even right because he half of his albums are EAST COAST. I still have 2 Schooly D cassettes  he was alright but it was't nothing like Ice-T busting GANGSTA rap over west coast beats....

check my topic about ice-t.i agree with u 100%

Ice Cube hands down Cube has got better with age to me he's responsible for two of the biggest rap groups and he's a pretty good actor and he's always been hardcore he don't give a fuck.

REAL WESTCOAST G

i would love to hear your guys definition of "icon".

is the guy who invented Baseball an icon or is Babe Ruth?

is the guy who invented Basketball an icon or is Michael Jordan?

point is, just because you came first & set a trend doesn't make you an icon; he's a legend, no doubt.

but icon? people need to think of your name; if i asked the average homeboy name me 25 rappers, Ice-T might come up once, maybe.

but i guarentee you Tupac & Snoop Dogg would be on EVERY single list.
