Why Is Ice Cube Still Doing Gangsta Rap After, “Are We There Yet”?

You got a family and make family movies, time to let the gangsta talk go homey. I mean when you younger and you living that life I understand. But you haven’t lived that life in years, you got a family and you rich, why still act like your in the hood?

Props to my people at OnSmash

80% of the rappers talk g when they aint even a g. Whats worse studio gangsters talking about being a g or a real G talking about g life. At the end of the day Cube can say that shit once lived that life.

CUBE IS STILL IF NOT THE TOP, ONE OF THE TOP NI99AZ OUT OF THE WEST. HE WAS SPITTIN IN THIS VIDEO LIKE HE HAD SOMETHING PROVE, LIKE IF U GOT IT TWISTED THINKIN HE WAS JUST AN ACTOR. I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR HIM WITH D-BLOCK. NOW THATS GANGSTA.

People can’t have it both ways. If he was rapping about how he lives now, people will call him a sellout (i.e. Jay-Z), but foe rapping the way he used to, people call him out because he isn’t living that way anymore… rap fans are so fickle

How come when someone like Snoop takes it back to his gangsta roots on the Blue Carpet Treatment everybody calls it his best work in years but if Cube raps gangsta he gets called out? what a joke

Well why can’t you be a gangsta and a family man. More so can’t you be a real nigga with family values. I don’t use the term gangsta and rap together. Real talk ny the term gangsta doesn’t apply to any rapper that ever lived. It’s like a mockery, gangstas is niggas like the real rick ross, Larry Hoover, the mafia, Pablo Escobar. Rappers can be real niggas, but their not gangstas.

Anyways, regardless of if you gansgta or not, you gotta take care of your fam first and foremost. Besides Cube is an actor,.

I’d rather listen to a washed up Cube than any of these faggot southern rappers.

shadow wrote on May 2nd, 2007 at 7:11 pm

you can say that shit about most rappers nowadays anywayz…they’re rich and they aint gangster anymore…its just that cube has ventured off and done acting and he has strayed away from acting as a gangster in a film…most rappers act as gangsters in films…cube is one of the few that have chose to go outside of it…I respect that
