Ice Cube has given his opinion on the conspiracy that NWA was “a part of the agenda to destroy conscious rap” that was popular in ’80s hip-hop.On Monday (September 25), the prolific West Coast rap legend asked his fans on X to “hit him up in the comments with a question.” One accepted the challenge and asked, “Was NWA part of the agenda to destroy conscious rap which was growing in popularity at the time, and promote sex violence and gangster behaviour amongst the youth?”This prompted another fan to counter, asking: “Crack and heroine [sic] flooded every economically challenged part of the country, but you want to blame music?” A third X user, defended the original tweet, saying: “Unfortunately music did play a part with the crack being pumped into our Black and Latino neighborhoods.”Responding to the whole discourse, Ice Cube hit back at those who believe NWA had corrupted hip-hop (and allegedly the youth) with their more explicit rhymes.“Bullshit,” the ‘It Was A Good Day’ rapper wrote. “Crack was in the neighborhoods a decade before gangsta rap.
In the 70s they called it freebase. So was heroine, weed, Mollys, gangbanging, drive-bys, pimping and ho’ing, dropping out of school, young girls getting pregnant, cussing and the using the word n****.
