G Rated Tough Guy

Awwww yeah. I remember when I was actually scared of Ice Cube. N.W.A was pretty successful at painting a picture of some serious hard-asses that had no tolerance for middle class white boys like myself. They were about as successful as King Diamond or Deicide was in convincing me that they had ties to the occult. Now I’m all growed up and I realize I could beat all those guys’ asses … at the same time. Before Cube moved on to do a shitty string of kids’ movies he had some solo stuff that intermittently packed a punch. The heaviest hitter of these songs was the ultimate “diss” song and Fuck You letter to former N.W.A mates and management, “No Vaseline.” I wonder if he felt a little bad when Eazy-E died AIDS or when Dre changed the face of rap about a year later?
