Ice Cube Album: “War & Peace, Vol. 2 (The Peace Disc) [Clean]”

The Brainiac does it again with his brand new CD, "War & Peace (the peace disc)". He is back with the real sh't at last, and "Peace" is his best album since "Death Certificate". I was a little nervous when I found out that he didn't produce, and that the likes of Chucky Thompson and Puff Daddy was beatmakers. But it works out real fine and the beats are perfect for Ice Cube. Cube fans know that the sound on "War" wasn't quite right... Anyway Cube's flow is better that ever, on tracks like "Roll All Day" and "Supreme Hustle" he proves that his game is still tight and that he can match rap-storytellers like Slick Rick and Biggie. This CD contains a pile of supa tracks, that Cube fans and Gangsta Rap fanatics can love for a long time . Be sure to check out "Hello" w/Mc Ren and Dre, "Gotta Be Insanity" and "Record Company Pimpin'". This actor/producer/screenwriter/MC is still doin' it... and I can't help lovin' it!

When Ice Cube was with N.W.A. he was he great. His first few solo projects were classics. However his last few projects are just not what The old Ice Cube was like. In this Album The beats are ok and the lyrics are good. He starts off the album on a smart way, the song is called hello featuring his old N.W.A buddies Dr. Dre and Mc Ren, they explain that they started Gansta Rap and people should not hate on them. The song is clearly the best on the album, with an amazing beat and great lyrics from the three. When I first heard this song, it seemed like I was listening to an N.W.A. tape from the mid 80's. Anyway, the album includes other decent songs and not really any garbage tracks. So far all of the albums Ice Cube has been involved with have gone platinum, including all N.W.A. albums and West Side Connection. Also this is slightly better than Volume One which went platinum, the bottom line is Ice Cube could still rap! His acting career on the other has been succsesful too. I hope he could keep it up. On one final N.W.A. will be coming back! yes thats right, The difference this time is that Snoop Dogg will take Eazy E's place. So all cube fans need to check that out which will come ou at the end of the year,

This cd isnt as good as his old skool stuff, this cd is more like r&b music without that powerful rap feeling as in cds before. get death certificate, its a better cd than this

Wow, all I can say is this album was a huge let-down. I purchased this album, all tracks unheard, strictly on the strength of Vol 1 (The War Disc). What happened? This album is full of recycled beats that we've heard so many times before, party/dance tracks that just don't work with Cube's authoritative lyrical flow, and a load of stupid insert tracks. Don't waste your money. If you have Vol 1 (The War Disc), trust me, you don't need or want this.

This album is worth the money for the opening N.W.A. reunion track alone. Just to hear Ice Cube rapping over a Dr.Dre track again is awesome. M.C.Ren sounds great as well. Cube decides to make a great party record, and he succeeds at doing so. Don't sleep on this album.
