Video: Ice Cube Explains Dr. Dre’s I Am The West Absence
via MTV
“He’s been M.I.A. for two to three months now. But I don’t feel bad, because Snoop can’t find him either,” he laughed.
“I think really, it’s because people expect so much from him. People expect —when Dre does a record— it to change the trajectory of music. It can’t be an album that comes out and is just good, it has to come and take us in a different direction… that’s a lot of pressure.”
After the jump, the revised tracklist for Cube’s I Am The West LP, out September 28th.
1. A Boy Was Conceived
2. Soul On Ice
3. Life In California feat. Jayo & WC
4. She Couldn’t Make It On Her Own feat. Doughboy & OMG (Produced by Bangladesh)
5. Urbanian
6. Y’all Know How I Am feat. OMG, WC, Doughboy & Maylay
7. Too West Coast feat. WC & Maylay
8. I Rep That West | Video
9. Drink The Kool-Aid | Video
10. No Country For Young Men
11. It Is What It Is
12. Hood Robbin
13. Your Money Or Your Life
14. Nothin’ Like L.A.
15. All Day, Everyday
16. Fat Cat

Hopefully some nice stuff from Cube on this, but I’m not going to be waiting on it.
Poor Dre though, Cube is completely right about the pressure he has. Boy did it to himself though (none)

Sorry but I really fuck with that Rae & Ye track with that chick.
I think its the Wu sample that really does it for me.
^i felt the same way. I’m still new enough to get ethered for saying shit like that though,lol.
^^
fuck that, that shit is cool lol. its essentially a classic Wu track with new vocals. they could have done way worse than that, and other rappers have done worse. not like they let the little dude spit a verse or nothin’.
ain’t no different than having Aubrey on the hook

How? Im not a shock commentor
Yes, pac and big in their prime were legendary…
but im saying
its a law of the universe
EVERYONE falls off at some point…
what goes up must come down
Pac and Big would NOT have stayed dropping classics
They either would sold out and gone commercial in an attempt to remain relevant (eg. Taken the Jay-z/eminem route)
Or stayed living in the past, like rakim etc.
People would not have appreciated them as much as they do now.
2 classic albums..yes..but that woulda been followed by 10 duds. Trust me. They peaked just before they died.
^^^^^^^^^
i say that the rap world would have been way…different jay z would have been biggies weed carrier…there would have been no eminem cuz dre would have been dismantled by pac…no dmx…nas would have never drop a wack album and would have been the king of the east coast….beyonnce marries nas…kelis..becomes a stripper and that god-awfulmovie belly never gets made…canibus would still be relevant…no no limit….no lil wayne ….no drake…i can do this for days yall but it would be a whole different world if one of the would have lived
