    Here's what some icons have to say about the book!!!
    Ice-T: "Respect to Soren Baker for documenting the history of gangster rap in these pages. Some hate it. Some love it. But you can’t deny its brutal, hardcore honesty."
    The D.O.C.: "History has so often been written by the victors, that you very rarely ever get the real story behind anything. So it’s really important to hear from the people that were there, which is exactly what Soren Baker shares in this book. He writes about it and he’s honest about it."
    Xzibit: "Hip-hop changed the world. Gangster rap changed the narrative, and then changed the world again. Soren Baker has been a very integral part of documenting hip-hop on the West Coast for as long as I can remember. I don’t think anybody is more qualified to write this book."
    Leslie “Big Lez” Segar: "Soren Baker has changed the perspective of gangster rap by putting his pen to paper. He has given hip-hop power, proven its potential, and made non-believers contemplate all of its possibilities. The truth in his writing leaves no stone unturned, something he's done again with The History of Gangster Rap. Soren doesn’t just champion hip-hop. He also reveals its flaws and its truths."

    @crookedthacon Місяць тому +2

    I was so excited when I seen this album pop up on your page! I am one of the biggest Cube fans you’ll ever run across and I never understood all the hate Lethal Injection gets. Very few debates in hip hop get me more frustrated. In fact, In my opinion LE is better than Predator by a good margin. The Predator’s beat selection and production seemed slightly dated to me when it came out.( released less than a month apart from the Chronic mind you.) To see Cube embracing the GFunk sound on LE was dope af to me.
    Part of the criticism of this album is the narrative that Cube strayed away from the socio-political content found on his earlier albums. BS! It was still found in abundance on this album..just his aggressiveness while delivering the messages was smoothed out a little.The times called for it.
    With that said
    LE is a 5 mic classic. No skippable joints.
    At any rate my top 3 tracks are the same as Soren’s.
    What can I do? Is especially high on my all time Cube tracks list.
    Salute to you both. Keep bringing back the memories. 🫡

    I'M GLAD (BASICALLY) EVERYONE ELSE HERE AGREES THAT LETHAL INJECTION WAS THE LAST DOPE ALBUM AND THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF HIS INCREDIBLE RUN AFTER GOING SOLO.
    WAR & PEACE WAS THE ALBUM/S I REFUSED TO BUY AND SUBSEQUENTLY ANYTHING HE DROPPED AFTER THAT. IT WAS THE ERA OF 'IN THE CLUB' TRACKS AND THE COMMERCIAL ROT (AND LACK OF SAMPLE BASED PRODUCTION) AND IT'S WHERE I PINPOINT CUBE FALLING OFF AS AN ARTIST WHILE FOCUSING ON BEING A SUPERSTAR INSTEAD OF AN ARTIST FIRST AND FOREMOST!!!
    Dont get me wrong, there were some ill joints on the War disc especially but the direction I could see he (amd mainstream commerical rap itself) was clearly heading towards at that point in time.
    That was so disappointing to see as a die hard fan.
    You can miss me with that "You Can Do It" / "We Be Clubbin'" jiggy shit.

    • @deezerbee81
      @deezerbee81 Місяць тому +2

      I disagree.....
      Even tho Westside Connection "Bow Down"...was a group project ..
      I still consider that a "Cube"album...
      And that is sandwiched in between"Lethal Injection.......and War album..
      Not to mention him popping up on other people's albums...and his homies..
      Bow Down album was hard...he was basically banging on the Eastcoast....NYC....
      The beats were cool ..
      The chemistry of Cube,Mack and Wc was better than him in NWA..
      So..I think that was his last great album....
      The others after range from very good to good..
      One thing Cube can always adapt
      G-Funk was on the rise in 92-93...hence Lethal Injection....
      Appearing on Mack 10s first album....Kausion...WC's...
      The production just got better .
      I don't particularly care for Cube on Crunk/trap beats...
      So Raw Footage ..Iam the West ..and alot of tracks after...I don't listen to as much .
      Lil Jon produced tracks on "Laugh now cry later...kinda bring that one down...a bit.
      But that was the last Cube album .I thoroughly enjoyed...
      "Club tracks" like
      "Get Ignit" off Westside Connection "terrorist threats"album...was good
      "Steal the Show" off Laugh now cry later was a good club track...

    Cubes previous works were always strong this one didn't have that feel like he just took beats and concepts hurried and put it out definitely one of his weaker albums this and the peace disc peace was byfar his worse album followed by this or predator
