Ice Cube is one of the most crucial artists in rap history. A
razor-sharp lyricist, an alternately furious and humorous MC, and an
accomplished producer, Cube laid the foundation for the legacy of
pioneering gangsta rap group N.W.A by writing "Boyz-N-The-Hood" for
partner Eazy-E and making his first big splash as an MC with the
subsequent "Dope Man".

After N.W.A's "Straight Outta Compton" (1988) infiltrated suburban
America and attracted the scrutiny of the FBI with "Fuck Tha
Police", Ice Cube launched a solo career that has entailed five
platinum albums and one platinum EP, including "AmeriKKKa's Most
Wanted" (1990), "Death Certificate" (1991), and "The Predator"
(1992).

A month before Cube released the first LP in that series, he
appeared on Public Enemy's critical "Burn Hollywood Burn" and within
a year aided in the disruption of the track's target with a
co-starring role in John Singleton's Boyz N The Hood. While Cube
added to his filmography with projects such as the Friday franchise,
his directorial debut The Players Club, and Barbershop, he devoted
less time to music.

He continued to record occasionally as a solo artist and as a member
of Westside Connection, and extended a streak of RIAA-certified
releases that lasted through "Laugh Now, Cry Later" (2006). The next
decade, Cube and Dr. Dre co-produced the acclaimed Straight Outta
Compton (2015), a biographical film about N.W.A., whose resurgence
culminated with an induction into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame.

Cube soon returned with his first solo album in eight years,
"Everythangs Corrupt" (2018) and formed the supergroup Mount
Westmore. A vehement homage to the gangsta rap sound, "Man Down"
(2024), was followed by the more philosophical "Man Up" (2025).
