Freeload: Ice Cube f. WC & The Game, “Get Used To It”
- story THE FADER
This summer…comes the true story…of a team…that attempted the impossible…and a family…that reached for their dreams… of putting out a song… in which The Game does not rap about another rapper. Didn’t happen but this song is crazy nonetheless. And it has a Keith David outro. That dude slayed Shakespeare in the Park!

Video: Killer Mike f. Ice Cube, “Pressure”
- story THE FADER
At this point it’s almost a bonus that Killer Mike even writes lyrics or thinks about song construction. We could listen to dude talking/ranting/yelling at us about almost anything and it wouldn’t even really have to rhyme. Here’s the first video from Killer Mike and featuring Ice Cube aka the inspirational uncle from family movies DIRECTED BY FRED DURST. Which—if you forget about that for a minute—makes sense (the Ice Cube part, not the Durst part), considering Killer Mike has more than a few similarities to old Ice Cube. But that’s kinda obvious, let’s just be glad he sounds fired up for a minute again.
Video: Ice Cube on MTV in 1989
- story THE FADER
Everybody’s understandably excited about the 20th B’day of Yo! MTV Raps, especially since even the youngest among us remember it being a major source of afterschool and Saturday night entertainment for much of our youths. But of all the videos rolled out on MTV’s site this week, our favorite has to be this video, which was never technically on Yo!, of
Ice Cube talking to Kurt Loder in Compton in 1989. It’s part of the Loder Files (…) and is enjoyable for the participants’ fashion choices, awkward questioning, and Cube’s Suzuki Sidekick with the tinted hardtop, but most of all because Cube is 20 and funny and not thinking about Are We Done Yet? sequels. Wait, dude is gonna be BA Baracas? Where have we been?
