Dr. Dre-"Let Me Ride" (1993)

This was the third single released by Dr. Dre off his 1993 album The Chronic after "Nuthin' But a 'G' Thang" and the previously posted "Fuck with Dre Day".


Ice Cube shows up a in a cameo (at 'lil over 5 minutes) in this Dr. Dre directed video to say "Damn right it was a good day", this indicated that the beef between Dr. Dre and Ice Cube was over. Yuh!

NWA-"Express Yourself" (1988)

I'm trying to rap up these NWA related "beef" posts. Let's bring it back to one of the most innovative and original rap groups from which all the later internal contention between this group's members began. (pun intended)

"Unlike most songs on the album and by N.W.A, the song is almost devoid of profanity and violent content. "Express Yourself" was released in 1989 as the album's last single." (wikipedia.org)

Ice Cube-"No Vaseline" (1991)

Ice Cube goes the hardest while ruthlessly doggin' out his old homeboys from NWA- Dr. Dre., Eazy-E and even MC "motherfuckin" Ren. He dogggggggs everybody! He references (and the fan made video depicts an image of) Benedict Arnold n shit....lol

(Also drops "Willie D told me to let a ho' be a ho, so....")

This comment from YouTube says it all:

@jacobalba89 Also he wrote all the Friday Films,starring in Boyz in the Hood, in both Barbershops, I see Ice Cube as a unappreciated Rap Legend, he had a legacy before Jay Z,Eminem,even Nas came onto the scene.

People don't rate Ice Cube now, cause he done a couple of kids movies, knowing his whole legacy I couldn't give a shit, if he's a sellout for that then your not a real ice cube fan neither is anyone else. Fed up with people saying he didn't keep it real.

Is there an MC Ren track where he disses Ice Cube, Dr. Dre. or Eazy-E that I don't know about?

Personal side note...My older brother and I did own the cassette tape Straight Outta Compton by NWA when i was elementary school (he was in middle school).

Dr. Dre-"Dre Day"(1993)

This is the track that prompted the retaliatory previously posted "Real Mothaphukkin' G's". It's actual title is "Fuck with Dre. Day (And Everybody's Celebratin')".

Eazy E-"Real Motherfuckin' G's" (1993)

I'm just glad Dr. Dre and Eazy-E could squash their beef, unfortunately it was a week prior to Eazy passing away due to complications from AIDS. This hook gets stuck in my head all the time. Maybe its cuz i'm from the 'burbs.

Linval Thompson-"I Love Marijuana" (1978)

This is another song I might not have ever heard were it not for Last.fm's Augustus Pablo station. The lyrics are profound. Look-I'm not saying i smoke marijuana, but if i did- i would love this song.

Walter Jones-"Living Without Your Love" (2009)

Last.fm played this the other day while i was listening to Bottin's station. The production sounds great and the vocal hook works very well.
