Ice Cube "Wicked"
Loading...
Uploaded by BVMUndergroundHipHop on Dec 1, 2008
Cube released The Predator in November 1992, which had been recorded amidst the LA uprising of 1992. Referring specifically to the riots, in the first single, "Wicked", Cube rapped "April 29 was power to the people and we might just see a sequel". The Predator debuted at number one on both the pop and R&B charts, the first album in history to do so. Singles from The Predator included "It Was a Good Day" and the "Check Yo Self" remix, and the songs had a two part music video. The album remains Cube's most successful release, with over three million copies sold in the US. However, after The Predator, Cube's rap audience slowly began to diminish. Lethal Injection which was released in the end of 1993 and represented Cube's first attempt at imitating the G-Funk sound of Dr. Dre's The Chronic, was not well received by critics. He had more successful hits from Lethal Injection, including "Really Doe", "Bop Gun (One Nation)", "You Know How We Do It" & "What Can I Do?". After 1994, he took a hiatus from music and concentrated on film work and developing the careers of other rap musicians, such as Mack 10, and Mr. Short Khop.

@McnEditz lol I'll admit mad white people listen to the good shit. Niggas these days aint getting the good shit like they did back in the day. Thats why mad niggas aint hustling anymore and now they just dumb as fuck complaining about being broke and on welfare. This music inspired us to make moves. Its really sad cuz I still listen to good shit but these faggot skinny jean wearing pussy niggas would rather listen to wayne, drake, kalifa....dick ross and all these other mikey mouse rappers. Damn
