Reviews Customer Reviews for AmeriKKKa S Most Wanted      Cube without Dre      Rating:      Like the title says,the production on this record is terrible. Which makes most of the cd terrible If you liked straight outta compton you probably won't like this one, too "east coast" for me.     Customer Reviews for AmeriKKKa S Most Wanted Cd      Ice Cube's Finest Moment      Rating:      Ice Cube didn't need to be in N.W.A. in order to be a classic MC. After he departed the group in 1989, he starts recording under his own name, in which he can express his ideas well without anything holding him back. After many listens to this album, I can easily say that this is the best thing that has ever been released by an N.W.A. affiliated member? Why do I say that? First off, Ice Cube was one impressive lyricist. While he kept his gangsta rap roots that he got from N.W.A., he also adds a conscious twist to his lyrics not unlike Public Enemy and KRS-One/BDP. Cube addressed real-life situations in his songs, whether it would be police brutality based on the Rodney King incident("Endangered Species"), unplanned pregnancy and trying to get out of it ("You Can't Fade Me"), talking to the kids ("A Gangster's Fairytale") or even a battle of the sexes involving female rapper Yo-Yo in "It's a Man's World". Whatever situation Cube brought up, he always knew how to bring it up perfectly through his rhymes. The Bomb Squad's production is ace. The samples used, featuring newscasts and other sayings based on Cube's lyrics, blend in a perfect sense. It's completely original and even stands the test of time with its style. Along with this West Coast classic, we also have the "Kill at Will" EP included as well, being originally released in late 1990, not many months after this. The EP tracks feature a remix of "Endangered Species", in which Chuck D from Public Enemy raps a completely new verse, the multi-instrumental beats used with Cube's rapping in "Jackin' for Beats", and the single "Dead Homiez" that focuses on killings in urban society. "Kill at Will" has 4 newer tracks, 2 remixes of AMW tracks and a short interlude. This is definitely the package to pick up if you want to hear Ice Cube at the top of his game. Even after over 15 years, it still sounds as refreshing as it was back then.
