In the early 90s Ice Cube was in a transitional period in his career. The soon-to-be Los Angeles icon had just left NWA, and while his creative freedom was awaiting, the rapper was still facing animosity from group members and fans for departing. Fortunately, Cube confidently came through with his debut project Amerikkka's Most Wanted and it was a project that showcased the rapper's raw rhymes with militant production through himself, Sir Jinx, and the Bomb Squad. Along with immediate success and critical acclaim, Amerikka's Most Wanted was proof that Ice Cube can make a successful project as a solo artist. For the fans, it was a shift in the trajectory of West Coast hip hop.
With this week's guest Ryan back in the building, Ahmad and Vance choose their favorite tracks from Amerikkka's Most Wanted, how the message from Ice Cube's "Turn Off The Radio" moved into the streaming industry, and how the album lives on after 30 years.
