Other than a few songs like No Country for Young men and Man vs Machine, the guy needs to retire. The sad thing is that there is no new West Coast rapper to carry on the Ice Cube baton.

I just took time again to listen to "I am the West" and i just can't help but laff in Iranian accent. Seems you guys lost your taste of the west coast rap style. That album is simply "100% WEST COAST RAP STYLE" . We've been having too much of south/commercial rap nowadays and there are not so many rappers from the west keeping it 100% West coast style except a few that are not "so popular" outhere i think thats why some people think the album didn't do it for them. I can only say maybe the album is TOO WEST COAST but thats reasonable cos thats what Cube's tryna prove tha "He is the west". The album is tight for me. cool

I have to retract my early comment. It is a good album.

You shouldn't judge the album from other pples point of view. Ur standing point are different so u can't av same view. As soon as i got off bed today, The album was the first thing i attended to and i paid attention to every elements of it. The production is so sick. The sick production of tracks like Life in California, Too west coast, I rep tha west, Your money or your life and No country for young men gat me feeling like Dr. Dre was part of the album that he produced those tracks but i was hell shocked when it wasn't the DOC that produced those sick beats. It use to be easy for me to spot Dr. Dre or Timbos beat by mere listening but i got beaten hands down this time. Those beats sound too DOC.

@Nella. . . Yeah u right, he got a couple of southside flows on a couple of tracks, i think bout 2 or 3. I bliv thats he's idea of givin the album a commercial face. But if the truth be told, Cube killed those south beats and flowed better than some so called southern rappers. For example, his flow was real tight on "It is what it is" a south beat and that hook is damn Catchy. I can foresee that track rocking clubs. I am not a fan of southern rap style, i rarely listen to them. Rappers like Wacka flaka, soulja boi, lil boosie et all give me runnin stomach with those annoying raps but Cube did it for me. I AM THE WEST is tight and i picture it doing well in the market.
