Ice Cube Wanted Dr. Dre to Produce His Debut Album, But ‘Eazy & Jerry Vetoed It’


His solo debut 'AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted' is widely considered to be one of the greatest rap albums ever.

“Me and Eazy was shaky, and I didn’t care about [manager] Jerry Heller at all, so it wasn’t no love lost there. Instead, the West Coast rapper tapped Public Enemy’s in-house production team The Bomb Squad to produce his 1990 solo debut and eventually dropped one of the most scathing diss tracks of all time, “ No Vaseline,” a year later in 1991, in which he tore into his former group and Ruthless Records co-founder Heller. Ice Cube is set to drop his 11th solo album Man Down, later this month on Nov. 22, and he’s going to get some help from fellow West Coast legends in Snoop Dogg, Too $hort, E-40,Xzibit, B-Real and Kurupt.
