    This was announced about 6 weeks ago and he mentioned it'll be ready in "a couple of weeks". I'd say this is going to go the Everythangs Corrupt route and drop about 5 years after announcing it.

    Ice Cube fell off hard. Have you listened to Everythangs Corrupt and Mount Rushmore?

    Nursery rhymes at best. I don't understand.

    I didn't think it was terrible, but I get it.

    I really like E-40 and Snoop was alright on there as well. But Ice Cube is just terrible. I feel like I could write better s---.

    Everythangs Corrupt was better than I am the West. But yeah, Mount Westmore was poor.

    I feel like Cube has always had "nursery rhyme" style rhyming though. But his subject matter has always been top tier.

    same. I’ve never thought of him to be some top lyricist. And kinda laugh when people call him one. Don’t get me wrong I love cube. He’s a legend. But if we talking bars he’s not coming up in the convo.
