Death Certificate explicit_lyrics

While Amerikkka's Most Wanted is his best album overall, Death Certificate comes close to taking that crown. Although at the time of its release it was looked at for its recial stances and controversial lyrics, Death Certififcate proved that Ice Cube could definitely get our attentions. Divided into two sides ("Death Side" and "Life Side"), this album had more of a message than Cube's first album. The Death Side has all the showings of a gangsta rap album, with tracks about gang expansion ("My Summer Vacataion"), adventures of the Lench Mob ("Steady Mobbin"), and STDs in the ghetto ("Look Who's Burnin"). The Life Side is bit more controversial, with songs about the US government ("I Wanna Kill Sam"), sellouts ("True to the Game"), and peace between Bloods and Crips ("Color Blind"). The two most controversial tracks however belong to "Black Korea", which spews venom on Asian Americans, and "No Vaseline", which is a viscious diss aimed at NWA. This album pretty much foretold everything that would ufold in the LA Riots. Anybody who weren't shocked at the LA Riots had probably been listening to Death Certificate. Either way you look at it, Death Certificate is an album that deserves to be heard, even though Amerikkka's Most Wanted is still his best album

If "Amerikkka's Most Wanted" is 1 this is 1A, just an incredible album. This was a very controversial album when it was released and it's themes are still to be heeded. Where "Amerikkka's Most Wanted" was more socially driven this album is more politically driven, it's such a fascinating and brilliant album that whenever I listen to it the themes still hit hard and real. Standout tracks for me are "A Bird In The Hand", "Us", "No Vasseline", "Color Blind", "Horny Lil' Devil", "My Summer Vacation", "True To The Game", "Steady Mobbin'", "Givin' Up The Nappy Dug Out", "Alive On Arrival" and "I Wanna Kill Sam", really every song is highlight on here, this album is that good. Storywise and lyrically Cube is at his zenith here, he gives it to you real and raw and doesn't hold any punches. Along with "Amerikka's Most Wanted" this album is the crown jewel of Ice Cube's career. Easily one of the best albums that I have ever heard.

Ice Cube at this prime!Been meaning to purchase this for sometime now. Finally pulled the trigger on it. Glad i did.Pros - Classic Ice Cube.Cons - None

This is a superb album, from Ice Cube's most abundantly creative period. Personally, I don't think it quite matches up to the ferocious intensity of "The Predator", but since that was his next album, it just means he kept improving. Pros: a lot of great tracks built on strong funk and soul samples. Cons: too many short tracks, and filler that didn't really do much for me. Current listeners may be dismayed by the strong homophobic content on the album, but it's a reflection of the time (and attitudes) when it was made.

This album has to been on the top albums of all time this album is that good, first off let me say that this album contains strong racial lyrics and may offend some. But other than that i really enjoyed myself listening to all of the songs. As for me i was born in 92 (20yrs old) so im use to the lil wayne and 2 chainz of this hip hop era we hear now. But i gotta say this makes me wanna listening to more old skool hip hop. I highly recommend this album!

One of the all-time great rap albums, FROM ANY COAST. Cube touches on so many topics that plagued our neighborhoods back then and many of those problems still persist today. The production is perfect for the subject matter, as Cube rips every beat a new one with charismatic performances. He touches on topics like sell-outs to the drama in the county hospital. I could talk about this album all day but I'll let the music do the talking. Buy this all-time classic, you won't regret it.

I love this cd by Ice Cube! I use to have this alblum since the 7th grade. A friend of mine made a copy for me! This was my first gangsta rap music! This is the best cd I ever heard since the day it came out in 1991! This cd is banging! That's what I'm talking about! Bringing that gangsta/thug music back to life! Thanks Amazon!De'Vear SmallAKA Dee Smalls!Represent Decatur, GA!

I have never been into rap music, but after watching the excellent movie where Ice Cube's son plays his dad, "Straight Outta Compton," I had to get this for the song "No Vaseline." The whole album is really good, and it lives up to the explicit sticker.

どの曲も最高！

かっこいい！！1曲目のSEを経て実質的に1曲目になるThe Wrong Nigga To ---- Witでまずやられました！

昔のCubeはマジイカツい。もちろん今もヤバいけど。このアルバムでオススメは最後の曲です。

Possibly cubes finest album,death certificate showed a new political,racial & social side to his music,putting the gangsta stuff on a sort of hold for this, predator & lethal injection.the album showed new confidence,a new production team and a new direction,a wise move for cube cos this is what he does best,tell it like it is.i can't think of any album quite like it,excellent from start to finish too.

Wicked album by Ice Cube.His solo albums are tuff!Rough house!
