Here's the thing nobody notices about this performance. Every time he was supposed to say "whites", he found a substitute word instead, so as not to offend. He also refused to name drop Yella or Dre in the parts the original track does. Skipped the entire verse dissing MC Ren, and only said the first line of the third before turning it off. Why? Because he went at Ren and Eazy DIRECTLY, and HARD. Eazy's dead, and obviously him and Ren are cool now. So he made the fans happy by performing the song, but respected his boys in HOW he performed it. It's a fine line, but Cube made it work.
Well said! He did this throughout the set.... slowly you see that it had been crafted that way aimed at the multi-cultural-who-knows-audience... Actually, I shouldn't be talking about this.... I pledged my allegiance to the Rag and promised not to snitch...sorry, bye.
I agree with you mate...... sort of. I Did that the week before at an Extreme concert with my son! .... but then spent days finding other peoples videos on here to re-live it again and again.... forever...... So I thought.... this is my 1st and prob only chance to see him.. 🤔
@d2dar459 New album came out.... and just like Cube is the best rapper, Nuno is the best guitarist. UK got blessed that week.. and I got a couple of new t shirts : )
Man I remember when this first dropped!! Cube buried them all lol.. One of the best diss tracks ever if not the best! Times change and so did the words but great to have the flash back been a wile since i heard this thanks!
"if you diss me, I got to diss you back" Proceeds to create an entire nwa diss track in under 90 minutes Word for the lesson: never ever diss the song writer
@@gqmartinez1 of course eazy got paid during that time cause ice cube was with nwa, but that was before the whole beef with them, after ice cube left eazy didnt get paid
@@CaezarTheEmperorLet me guess, you’ll say it’s “Hit ‘Em Up?” Or maybe an Eminem one? There are lots of great ones, but No Vaseline bodied an entire group and ended them. So in addition to being dope af, no other diss track has ever been equally impactful, period.
Saw Chris Rock last year, had to put my phone in a locked pouch when in the venue. At first I hated it, but when you look around and see no phones - it's waaaaaaayyy better that way.
What that process like, when you go in they give a lock pouch and they keep the key? Do you have to have your phone off too? What if you get an important call, you cant leave the audience to answer?
@edwin99901 I forget the brand of pouch it was, but it was a part of security going in, and there were multiple stations with staff outside to have it unlocked, so it was a magnetic sort of lock I think. So if you needed to take a call, you'd need to go out and get it unlocked. It didn't worry me at all, I put my phone on do not disturb for any show I go to.
@@SkydrawnIV I'm just wondering, it makes sense that turning your off would be a requirement before entering the audience as a lousy ringtone can cause disturbance. Do they also require you to silence your phones?
@@matthiasgoethals4185 well... we all sound "goofy" as there are those that have and tjose that will as the saying goes. So I can not for one really laugh about that perse.

Trying to do the song that made him sound hard, but now he's making money so he censors everything hard about it. The only thing he'll say is the name of the dead guy who can't sue him anymore. Used to be good at playing hard, but now you just sold out and it's obvious you were always pretending.

thats cool you know him personally and shared what he arranged to do on stage.

snoop too ;)
Apart from this sounds nothing like the original
@@plummet3860lmao right
I was there! I had good time listening to Ice Cube, Cypress Hill and D12.

I remember being blown away at how hard he went in on them! It was scandalous, fabulous, and to this day, one of my all time favorite songs! 😊
Those cell phones took me out of it. Ironically, it was nice to see him up there and that was due to someone's cell phone!
Crazy but Eazy alive he could have performed real mfk g
And he killed the game
Real mf gs was aimed at dre, snoop nd death row
Bucket list…. see Cube live in concert before I bite the bullet.
LOVE ICE CUBE'S MUSIC,MOVIE'S, AND HIS MERCHANDISE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ BEEN A FAN SINCE N.W.A. DAY 1 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾💯💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😎😎😎😎
cube a legend
Man he sounds just like he did in the record
True dat, but same time im diggin this vid. Respect ✌🏾💜
❤straight up❤
i was there 👍
Cube didn't even mention non of their names except Eazy-E atleast from the beginning but since the video is a short one that's all I got from it
Because the beef is long gone and he's cool with all the members, including Eazy with whom he met before he died
The best diss song of all time one MCEE dissed 4 dudes and the manager
He still be dissin
"if you diss me, I got to diss you back"
Proceeds to create an entire nwa diss track in under 90 minutes
Word for the lesson: never ever diss the song writer
And Eazy E still got paid. As Eazy E once said you can diss me all you want but I will still get paid from those records

@disarray_ for 5 minutes... 90-93 he was pretty untouchable.
I know they're all cool now and some of em aren't even alive anymore, I'm kinda surprised he is performing this lol.

are you sure this was 2023? it looks like it was filmed in the 2010's or something. bro still looks the same wtf lol
The phones suck
Yup, all for social media, views & likes but in the grand scheme of things most people don't care.
Why is this song part of nwa history but not Dre day and real muthafukkin Gs
Kinda sad not hearing the crowd shout this, i'd be out there yelling every bar

Niggaz4life was way better. I love cube though
Some of the baddest B- lines ever!! Legendary
Thats MC Reb
He is not MC Ren he is WC From Westside Connection
money still funny today otherwise why would Ice Cube again perform this after everything is settled now with his old friends
?
The audience is way to quite. Nobody I bouncing.
