Legendary emcee Ice Cube, along with longtime friend WC, sit down with Doc and KB on Subsoniq Classix this week. Cube speaks on what it was like making his first album with the The Bomb Squad, the reception he received from being one of the first hip hop artists to play a rock festival (Lollapalooza 92′), and why his newest album (Raw Footage) is hip hop “for the brain not the booty”. WC also speaks on Cube’s link to Bernie Mac and the helping hand he has provided to many in the industry. Its a Subsoniq Classix not to be missed.
