Dub C and CJ Mac sit down with Ice Cube to celebrate his accomplishments and that of Hip Hop.. Also discussing early life, longevity, music, movie making, new business ventures, politics, the westside and a ton of untold stories.
Y’all are legendary. Even though I’m a white guy who didn’t grow up in quite the same environment, I’ve seen and been through a lot of rough shit. Thank you Cube for being a man of virtue. You’ve taught me a lot of what it really means to be a man and survive in this crazy world. Ethnicity and background doesn’t matter when it comes to music, message and soul. What matters is just what he said: if the creator of something has true character and good intentions, that’s what makes the art/creation actually have meaningful value.
Regardless of you being white your still hiphop . Ninth wonder said with out Charles Lynn where would hiphop be. There white and then there’s hiphop. Every instrument that’s use in recordings they are created by white ppl Asian ppl ect. As long as you appreciate the ones that create the culture and you stand up for the social injustice that blk ppl experience you good to me.
GREAT interview!!!!.......no matter how much money and success Cube has.......he is always humble and stays true to who he is......nothing but more love and respect for Ice Cube.......wishing you nothing but more blessings and prosperity King!🙏💯💪👍
First saw Ice Cube live on The Predator tour in the U.K. Dub C was his hype man. I went out and bought Ain’t A Damn Thing Changed the very next day. Dub is still under the radar as a rapper, but he is truly one of the greats. So good to see he and Cube still friendin’ after all these years.
This was a dope interview! A lot of stories that I never heard before. Much love and respect to the big homie Ice Cube! CJ and Dub keep up the great work!
Wonderful in depth interview, I am a hip hop historian with Cube being my favorite artist!!! Growing up in the bay in the 80’s-90’s what a time!! Much luv to Dub and CJ and of course Cube!! Cube felt comfortable with y’all and we got to hear more in depth!! Thank you 🙏
What a great interview! I love how you just let him talk. No interruptions while Cube spoke. Someone needs to make a playlist of cube storytelling songs only so we can put the debate to bed! Looking forward to more west coast legends interviews.
@PatrickJones187 the message on the song...cube always put socially conscious in his lyrics...especially the early stuff...he is still the king of west coast for me...
I had to kill an hour waiting for this record store to open up, this was the first video that popped up on my homepage at the exact perfect time. These stories are so important and I’m so glad we’re in a time when we can hear the full uncut history by these legends
I grew up 4 blocks down the street from Washington High. Its great to see black men from my hood grow up and accomplish great things. WC lived 8 blocks from me while Cube lived west of Normandie 3 mins from where i lived
As an east coast baby I gotta say.... Yeah hands down cube is pound for pound the best storyteller in hip hop. Not just that he told many iconic stories, but you have to be lyrically advanced or elite to consistently do it over and over. In the 80's nwa did not get radio play but the word of mouth carried all across America. His impact is unmatched. Only a very small few can even be compared. The fact that he went on to write legendary films alongside that should show his greatness alone.
I'm just happy to see Cube gets his flowers while he alive, hes been through a lot and still remains humble and productive, Dub is a good friend you can see the history and camaraderie here
This is the first interview that I heard in depth details about the beginning stages of how everything came together. Great job CJ & Dub and salute to the Don Mega 👊🏾
Damn what a great interview in so many levels, Cube just comes off as a genuine uncompromisied brotha, shout out to WC and CJ for conducting an authentic and respectful interview, B1
I Grew Up in Phoenix when Cube was a Student , as Well as a Rapper . We would See him in His Whip. I went to a NWA concert with DOC , Too Short , Eazy E ! We relized Who He was .
This is South Central royalty! Thankful to have grew up on these 3 as a lil BG! Dope ass interview! "A Gat is a man's best friend" was one of his hardest story telling records as well.
I really enjoyed this interview. Cube is a legend and I appreciate his realness from day 1. Growing up in Compton, I always admired his storytelling as a youth. I wasn't allowed to listen to NWA, but thankfully my sister snuck and got us the album anyway, lol. Been a fan since 88❤
Great interview gentlemen. I grew up in Compton in the 70’s and 80’s. We were listening to Mix Master Spade and Toddy Tee. Then along came NWA. That was the music of our lives!!! Great to hear Cube and Dub’s backstory!! Keep doing what ya’ll do!!
I’ve been waiting on Cube to be a guest on here I’m already stamping this the best episode of all time, too much history, too iconic, too legendary, salute on the podcast keep going 🔥💯
Cube keep it a 💯 eazy was the first RZA😮 He seen the vision that started a whole genre...... And it shows cube had the vision as well first ghost writer for da west
I met Dub at one of his concerts. Had the hookup backstage. I had a quick convo with him. His bro Crazy Toones had just passed. Very chill dude. Respect. Very great moment on friendship!
Salute to Dub C & CJ for an incredible interview with the Don Mega, Ice Cube 🫡 Very well done, gentlemen…well worth the wait 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Dutch #TheDutchFactory #TDF #TTMU 🎼
i saw Cube in concert in a small venue in Philly in 2006. the TLA. Dub was his hype man. Busta Rhymes was there in the back chillin in the crowd. i tried to say whats up and his big ass bodyguards looked at me like take one mo step and you a human pretzel
This was a damn good interview, not the typical cube questions and responses, he was really relaxed. Learned some new history as well. S/o to Dub & CJ Mac
Kill at will//Americas most wanted/Death certificate/predator/lethal injection we're my top albums from cube! Grew up listening to those albums and still am. The rhymes the beats on those albums we're just another level! I do hope cube will make albums like that era again just for nostalgia ,with all that warm mpc/sp1200 style 80s and early 90s vibes 🤔😎
From the interview he did with Tucker to this interview, it's great to see a side of one of the greatest MC's to ever hold a mic and one that we all idolized growing up. Cube is such a genuine person and it goes to show that you can never paint a person with such a narrow brush just because they may put out a certain type of music or act a certain way in a movie. I'm glad he stays true to self and doesn't sell his soul to The Gatekeepers.
I love this interview, seeing cube answer basically the same questions for going on 50y, but the twists is with his comrades/day1's is lovely & cj you stay humble #from 2007 when we kicked it at that restaurant superbowl weekend ❤
