Ice Cube Clowns New West Coast Rappers; Jay Rock Responds

by The Chosen Few on March 18th, 2010

http://media.defsounds.com/uploads/assets/981/1059/33130/asset.jpegIce Cube took to his blog to address his problem with new West Coast rappers complaining that the "OG's" should put them on with the rest of the music world. Ice Cube states its not his job and even went as far to say "f**k em."

"What's up with these local MC's in L.A. who keep disrespecting me? They're just mad cause I don't fuck with they wack-ass. They ain't on my level, why should I waste my time. I don't even remember ever meeting these clowns or even being in the same room with any of 'em. They can't make a name for themselves so they need help from the O/G's. I refuse the throw'em a life line. Fuck'em. It ain't my job to make nobody famous. And for the record, I ain't scared of no nigga. Especially, no rappers....seriously people.

Age-ism in rap? Age-ism is everywhere folks. In the work place, in sports and of course in hip-hop. We are a out with the OLD in with the NEW world. But as we go through life we realize NEWER ain't always better. We find ourselves saying, "Back in the day, bah, bah, bah...." All young MC's should route for old MC's to have long careers. If you play us out, what kind of future do you have in hip-hop when you get 40?

Advice for young rappers: You gotta be hot on your block first, then your city, then your state, then your country, then the world. If you can't make your block notice you. The world is a tall task."

One new West Coast rapper who took exception to Cube's comments was Jay Rock, who took to his twitter to react to Cube.

"WATTS UP WIT ICE CUBE TALKIN KRAZY ABOUT NEW WEST NIGGAS.IF HE GOT A PROB WIT 1 OF US HE SHUD SAY R NAME N STOP BN SCARED 2 CALL A NIGGA OUT

ON SOME REAL STUFF I AINT NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH CUBE OR NONE OF THE OG NIGGAS. BUT IF HE SAY NEW WEST IM APART OF THAT (CONT)

TO ME HE TALKIN BOUT ALL OF US IF HE DIDNT SAY A NAME. THATS HOW THE WEST GOT FUCKED UP IN THE FIRST PLACE.(CONT)

YALL KNOW AINT NO NIGGA STAMPED ME. I DONT NEED NO NIGGA. ALL I NEED IS A MIC MY HOOD MY FANS AND THIS BIG ASS GUN"

Ice Cube's new album, I Am The West, comes out July 13th.

they both made valid points…

cube: “They can’t make a name for themselves so they need help from the O/G’s…… It ain’t my job to make nobody famous”… tru shit

jay rock: “IF HE GOT A PROB WIT 1 OF US HE SHUD SAY R NAME N STOP BN SCARED 2 CALL A NIGGA OUT…… ON SOME REAL STUFF I AINT NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH CUBE OR NONE OF THE OG NIGGAS. BUT IF HE SAY NEW WEST IM APART OF THAT”… tru shit too

Production, Cube Said The New West And Jay Rock IS ONE of those New West rappers. So IT was OK for Jay Rock to respond back. “WATTS UP WIT ICE CUBE TALKIN KRAZY ABOUT NEW WEST NIGGAS.IF HE GOT A PROB WIT 1 OF US HE SHUD SAY R NAME N STOP BN SCARED 2 CALL A NIGGA OUT” That What Jay Rock Said, Next time Cube Should start saying names, cuse if he aint then the whole New West is one of those rappers and that includes Jay Rock.

shoot forget Ice Cube if it wasn’t for N.W.A. PERIOD we would have soooo much less than what we have right now.

Simple timeline: No N.W.A. = No Dr. Dre = No Death Row (Who Knows Where Pac Would’ve Ended Up) = No Snoop Dogg, No Eminem. That right there is a big chunck. So, PLEASE show respect to the old school. That’s why the West ain’t doin too much major besides Game, and he goin down the drain. sigh well if Nipsey Hussle or Tyga don’t blow up, it’s all up to the NEW BOYZ smh.

not tryin to bad mouth cube but he did kind of deserve a response from somebody.. they aint all wack like cube is insinuating.. crooked i, ya boy, jay rock, game, juice, etc… those are all artists with the exception of game(blew up already) that could use a feature from cube to get them the shine on a broader span that they definatly deserve..

cube need to call out all the fags out west in the jerking movement. thats a sad thing right there, tight pants and little flannels. (smh) also, they hyphie (or however you spell it) movement. they need to get rid of the keek da sneaks, cause that shit is garbage. the west aint never been about lyrics, and thats their downfall to me. also, mac 10 needs to retire if he aint already. the game could of put the left coast on his back, but he seems occupied with other shit. cube deserve respect from any one in the rap game, not just west coast rappers.

Sounds like he was addressing Glasses malone here.A few months ago when Slaughterhouse and Glasses malone were on the K.o.d. tour with Tech N9ne.Joe budden was on blog tv and some of the ppl on tour along with glasses malone were telling joe budden to stop acting like an asshole towards ppl on camera and fans.Sort of like an intervention.Anyhow glasses got to talking about why he doesnt listen to ice cube anymore.He said that when he met him to get an autograph cube looked scared because he was with a few crip goons.He said something like that the dude (cube) he grew up listening to wasnt the same dude he just met face to face.So basically he called cube fake and scared in so many words.I also heard that cube was going to make a diss song called “no country for young men” and was going to diss some of these young cats.According to Crooked i’s twitter Ice cube is not going to include crooked as one of the ppl he disses.

Smh at jay rock talking about his big ass gun what an ignorant comment for real. Ice Cube is a legend and why should he help them when some of the new west coast rappers are going crazy out the mouth and then when they are drowning they cry about how the old west rappers won’t help them out c’mon son!

i feel ur point about the big ass gun comment tho..but cube got ignorant 2 and basically said fuck everybody in the new west..it doesnt matter if he speaking directly towards somebody, he basically said fuck the new west without specifying his words..thats like if somebody said fuck the south cuz one rapper from there dissed em..

Its really clear who Ice cube talkin bout. That new L.A. swag. Ex. What the hell is the New boyz. College boys? Really shit seem gay to me. Its like when Pimp C came home and spoke on ATL and dat soulja boy bullshit. L.A. is not known for jerking and all that other shit. They used to Let Me Ride and Where I Wanna Be(Shade Shiest). New west niggas stop bitching and looking for that hand out. Ice cube did not get it he made it for himself…

YALL KNOW AINT NO NIGGA STAMPED ME. I DONT NEED NO NIGGA. ALL I NEED IS A MIC MY HOOD MY FANS AND THIS BIG ASS GUN"<<<which you ain’t bussin cause you are now a rap nigga… Jay Rock & new west niggas STFU and take it. When it comes down to it, ya not fucking with Ice Cube. ON NO LEVELS!!

I understand both sides.
But Cube gotta realise if he dont help the new West Coast, especially at this time, since all those dance songs are popular, there is not gonna be a new westcoast. What happen if Cube, Game, Dre etc. quit?
They gotta support the new west though. DJ Quik comming with a new album, thats gotta be fire.

cube obvsiouly talking about glasses malone (thanks skitzo) so jay rock shoulda shut his fuckin mouth. i used to actually fuck with jay rock (a lil) and now im just like “fuck this nigga” if cube got mad cuz of an ignorant glasses malone remark (some1 who is disrespecting him-like cube states in his twitter) then jay rock should just let him say what he has to say. he is a fuckin legend who paved the way for niggas like jay rock to even have the oppurtunity to put watts on the map.
all the real cube fans aint even gunna show no love/support to jay rock now && they were probaly all the same fans cuz they both from the west.

man this shit just makes me mad all these new cats have to bring back the west to the way like it used too be. let the south make them dance and gay ass radio shit. niggas from the west need to bring the true gangsta rap/g-funk/CALIFORNIA LOVE music back!

side note— cube and the OGs should be colaborating with the new cats. imagine cube, crooked, and nipsey or sum1 else from the west on the same track???
