Major league sellouts man.
Cube making goofy ass kids movies. Snoop shilling pretty much everything in commercials. The fuck man.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

I don't think they are sellouts. Snoop never hid that and there is something endearing about him. Ice Cube's progression is understandable. Maybe you just East Coast.

Maybe.

My husband and I are now debating East vs West and our teen years. It's gonna be a very productive night.

Beastie Boys and LL Cool J are the only good east coast if you can even consider them east coast.

And then he brought up Outkast and they are from Atlanta!

That is a silly take.

half of those guys were down low to begin with so there has always been a lot of posing in the rap world

Yep! Some come from private schools and 2 parent households.

It's important to some genre fan bases to live the life, like in country.

As for me, I don't care. I doubt Springsteen was even born in the usa

but withtout even thinking about it for more than a minute:

BDP/KRS-One

Nas - NY State of Mind

eric b and rakim let the rhythm hit em

how can you forget p motherfucken e

No WTC? RPB would be disappointed

RUN DMC, Slick Rick, Busta, DMX, etc etc

Tribe Called Quest
Public Enemy

recall an episode of the Swingers-not-Obama-speech-writer Jon Favreau short-lived Check! Please take off during which this black actor who had appeared in multiple Ice Cube productions parodied Ice Cube's directorial style: "It's one take and then 'Cut! Let's go work on the sound track!'" this was sufficiently humorously delivered in O'Shea Jackson's distinct laconic-aggressive manner of speaking that the dude delivered it a few times during the episode "Let's go work on the sound track!" .... and then there was that time that CPD put out an alert for Ice Cube as the Wicker Park rapist; which after Ice Cube, in town filming Barbershop 2, complained the CPD doubled-down on stupidity by apologizing to "Ice-T"

I love when fans decide how others should earn their money or the amount of money they should be happy with.

What are they selling out to though? A life of crime and gang activity?

I think it would be pretty sad if they were acting the same way they did in their teenage and 20s now.

Ice-T being born "Tracy Lauren..." prolly needed the alias to make any headway in the gangsta rap game. But Ice-Cube's real name, O'Shea Jackson Sr (how did they know he was gonna be a senior?) called out for something other than Ice Cube. Maybe he had a premonition about OJ Simpson sullying the OJ/Juice moniker. Or Cube didn't wanna step on yet another East Coast hip hop luminary's namespace:

You gotta get on outta here with that alley-cat-coat-wearing
Hush-Puppy-shoe-wearing crumbcake I saw you with
'Cause you dismissed!

That's right, silly rabbit, tricks are made for kids, don't you know that?
You without me like corn flake without the milk!
It's my world, you're just a squirrel trying to get a nut!
Now get on outta here
Don't touch that coat!

I'm pretty sure Springsteen is himself on the down low.
