One of the most impressive things about Cube was on top of writing all the classic rhymes, he goes out and writes Friday, which goes on to be one of the most classic comedy movies ever.
He just wanted to be compensated for the songs he wrote don't get me wrong I loved easy but cube was the one coming up with all them lines so he was and continued to be the writer then went on even further and started writing movies and staring in them movies double dipping on that paper he learned the business real quick lol
Yes I think because it was family business..I personally was a Ren guy but when they came for cube The way that they did I switched teams so anybody that was rocking with nwa I believe to this particular diss track personally
Shut I’m tired of it 😂 much respect to nwa but keep hearing the same stories over and over I rather hear something new like westsideeee Connection or later years not the same late 80s early 90s story
Cube was destined to be great. He was young, touring, fame, and a little bit of $$$ yet was not blindsided by a bogus contract. Him and Ren were the youngest in NWA but he was the ONLY one with outside counsel....respect!!
Because he was smart enough to put them stories on wax, that's why he a legend, much respect to cube, and as far as gangbangin what you think the lynch mob was, boy scout lol.
Cube is a LEGEND. Always felt/feel he's a man of his word. Never truly sensed malice---He talks about their "beef/disagreements" respectfully & really he is just telling the truth of what happened (or his side of things, involving him). An icon in the culture
Shannon really is like the best thing to be introduced into media. Great interviewer. The accent, allowing the guest to just talk while maintaining control, smile, the everything. Dude looks like a million bucks.
Certain songs for certain artists even if they would've did the song doesn't mean it would've blew up could u imagine a group from New York doing boyz in the hood
This story never gets old and you can tell Cube love to explain the formation every time he gets asked because he knows now that his 16/17 year old self is gonna make history
I swear we're seeing the rise of shannon sharpe .. he's surpassed sas he doesn't need a gimmick he's just unc .. nd someone being real on tv these days Soo refreshing
Cube was the most talented of them all by far. Between, the music, producing music and movies, and acting. Talenttttted! One of the greatest of all time! Period.
Nothing but respect for Cube. I'm not a Hip Hop fan by any stretch of the imagination, but dude is a flat out man who has always handled his business. Not only that, but he is still true to his roots AND has still managed to get himself away from them. Not an easy feat.
Gangsta Rap was very eye-opening for me being a white guy from a small city in SW Missouri in late 80s. The first time I heard Eazy-Duz-It I couldn't believe the incredible music I was listening to but also the powerful political commentary inside of E's words shook me to the core
So that is what you call a good interviewer. I have heard Cube telling this story so many times but never into the details he talks about here. Thumbs up, Shay Shay!
Cube always been a smart guy at 17 being that lyrical and started learning the business and knew he wasn’t getting his fair share and went solo before it all went belly up and still was willing to do music with Eazy E

It was a fun period to grow up in! Great music that I still play to this day, it will never get old! It was back when you watched TV just for music videos and not the garbage they have today. Everybody watched MTV top ten and BET’s top ten before 106 & Park came out. Was nothing like listening to a song for the first time ever on one of those channels, you talk about being hype!!
@ Bryce Keena U Missed It Baby !!! The 80's & it's Was All That !!! I'm A Singer From NY & Trying To Get In The Loop Was So Interesting But It Never Panned Out Too Well For Me. Too Many Liars & Thieves. I Wasn't Wit It My Contracts Were BS & They (Management) Wouldn't Change The Terms !!! That TLC BS !!! 🤔🤓
I appreciate what this man has given this world, showed nothing but love, integrity, honor and of course blessed us with phenomenal music and comedies! Changed the course of the nation on a mass scale with dignity and courage.
It is awesome hearing this history...bringing back memories of me going from a teenager to a young adult... I was at that NWA concert at the Summit in Houston...
Mr. Sharpe reminds me of my uncle...just a solid man all the way around...don't have too many role models outside of my father and uncles....Mr Sharpe is definitely one of them...SALUTE!!!...and I'm 4 years short of 50..😆😁😁😁✊🏾💯
Record labels had a formula for breaking up groups and rolling with the lead singer since the Soul groups of the 60s. It wasn’t until WuTang Clan that they started seeing value in all the members
I was introduced to NWA in FEB,1988 when i was in the US Navy stationed in Long Beach, CA(THE LBC). One of my shipmates was a rollin' 60's crip and he was playing it and it was dope so said i wanted it. He let me dub it and i was hooked...NWA was, and still is one of my favorites.
Man, two of my favorite public figures and bros .continued success to you both....one thing you both have in common in my humble opinion is you keep everybody honest. Thanks
I remember when I first heard it. I was like this is one of the greatest disses ever, but Common’s diss against Cube was epic too! Either way, I wish DOC never lost his voice. To me he would have been the goat out the whole crew
We love Cube!!!! He’s a made man! Give us an interview of Skip. We wanna know his story....Skip is a great advocate for justice, he have been working on the behalf of blacks behind the scenes for a while now. People need to see that side of him
Somebody needs to forward the part about Cube not signing the contract, to the people arguing with me about Dave Chappelle and his Comedy Central contract
Shannon has a way with words. Cube didn’t want to say what made him leave but ended up saying what happened because of the pointed questions from Shannon. Amazing interviewer, all while being engaged and respectful. 👏
Cube is the Best Rapper of all time, If only Express Yourself was in his Voice... I'd listen to it more often (that's a Rap song that everyone can listen to as there's No Cussing in there)

And I think it's real cool that his son grew up and stared as his dad in that movie straight outta compton
To me No Vaseline is the greatest diss song of all time. It was piercing, mostly true and very personal. Or maybe I'm just old at 49 years. lol
It’s On - Eazy E is my GOAT diss song. Very underrated with sharp insults and samples of the subjects own music.
naw, Cube disses the whole group and Jerry.
No no I’m 24 and it is the greatest diss song ever lol
I'm 49 and I agree with you 😎 besides, we're not old, we're well seasoned musically.

Also has that facial expression, that has the effect of exposing a liar.

No Vasaline is BY FAR the Greatest diss track in hip hop history. No other single track can ever compare!
