- Cube Was On A Roll {4 Stars}
This album came out during a period in which Ice Cube simply couldn't do any wrong. Everything he dropped was golden and Kill At Will was no exception. Though it was only 6 tracks deep (JD's Gafflin' Pt. 2 is an interlude), it was just as strong as, if not stronger than, a lot of the other 1990 rap albums. Classics like "Dead Homies" and "Jackin' For Beats" make grabbing this a good idea, but there are also great tracks like "The Product" and "Endangered Species" [Remix] that make this a must have album.
As with most dope albums, the only thing I can find wrong is the short length, but it's an EP so......
Kill At Will is probably one of the better EPs out there in the rap world. This was back when Cube was on a roll and dropped dope album after dope album every year. It plays more like a b-side to Amerikkka's Most Wanted, but I'd say that that's a good thing. If you want to hear what Ice Cube sounded like when he was still hungry, then I recommend grabbing this if you can find it.
Standout Tracks: The Product, Jackin' For Beats, Dead Homies, Endangered Species [Remix] feat. Chuck D, and Get Off My D**k And Tell Yo B**ch To Come Here [Remix]

- A must for any Cube fan
This is a great CD, just another example of Ice Cube's talent. It includes a few Ice Cube classics like "Jackin for the Beats" and a few other choice hits. If you love Ice Cube you can't miss this CD.

- GOOD ALBUM FOR 1990
NOTHING REALLY GOOD CAME OUT IN 1990 AND IF IT WAS GOOD THIS WOULD BE ONE OF THE FEW ALBUMS. THIS IS LOADED WITH PLENTY OF OLD SCHOOL BEATS AND A STYLE THAT CUBE STILL USES TODAY. GET THIS ALBUM IF YOU ARE ESPECIALLY INTO THE OLD SCHOOLB STYLE AND.
- Right on the money
If you love Cube's first 3 albums and want more of that style, get this. If you like "Today was a good day" then don't bother with it. It's superb. Funky, poignant, hard, all that. It is the Lynch Mob through and through.
