This is one of my favorite tracks from N.W.A.. With Ice Cube, Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, and MC Ren doing their thing in the early 90’s the West Coast was bringing some serious heat. (All the artists went on to go platinum as solo artists) Despite what many folks may think about the West Coast “Gangsta” rap of the era, some of the music actually was politically motivated and had substance….contrary to popular belief.
Jon FTW!

Cube goes hard on this
and for most of the song considering that he wrote everything
I remember my best friend and I use to tape Yo MTV Raps and watch video’s all day. This joint and We Want Eazy were on repeat continuously.

Dam tho saying west coast music dont hav substance and that finding something with substance is contrary to popular belief? wow thats cold ya’ll dont understand it i guess how can you relate to the gangsta music if ya never seen a real gang …ur east coast bias is showing
@ SOC4L
You need to go back and read the intro……there isn’t anything in the written piece that says West coast music DOES NOT have substance.
“Despite what many folks may think about the West Coast “Gangsta” rap of the era, some of the music actually was politically motivated and had substance….contrary to popular belief.” <<<<< Please read this again.
