Ice Cube's ferocious frown is familiar now from multiple big and small screen appearances, but as this collection reminds us, he's still first and foremost the thinking street thug's rapper, one of the original gangstas. GREATEST HITS isn't sequenced chronologically, jumping frantically from 1998's "Pushing Weight" to 1994's "Check Yo Self" with its "Message" backing track, to 1990's furious Public Enemy-influenced "Jackin' For Beats" (Ice Cube's departure from P.E.'s rivals N.W.A. presaged his hooking up with the Bomb Squad, Public Enemy's production team). But though the patchwork song list makes a clear overview of Cube's career difficult, it also makes for some thrilling twists and turns, for instance between the rowdy, early-'90s "The Nigga Ya Love to Hate" to the equally tumultuous but more sophisticated "Late Night Hour," recorded in 2001. What's obvious from even the most cursory overview of this set is Ice Cube's huge contribution to rap and hip-hop music, and over a decade's worth of unswerving dedication to putting his message across.

What more can be said of Ice Cube. He truely is a legend of the rap game. Ice Cube's greatest hits truely is a bunch of great songs. But however there is some songs missing in this collection of hits. No Vaseline truely deserves to be in this collection. Cube slaughtered N.W.A. with that diss. Another song that also should be on here is How To Survive In South Central. I love that song. It comes on the Boyz In The Hood soundtrack. True to the game is also a pretty good song too. He talks about people selling out in that song. Wicked also could of had room on this hits album and we can't forget about Friday, or Chin Check. But alot of great songs that also is a must buy. It was a good day, You know how we do it, Hello, and Bow down are all my favorite songs from Ice Cube. You also get two unreleased songs from Cube, $100 dollar bill ya'll, and In the late night hour.

Now for the videos they're great but edited. Thats what kinda kills the DVD for me. Maybe if you buy the DVD seperate then you'll get the videos uncensored. I got this CD and DVD combo for $20.99 so I was hoping a deal like this it's gotta be good. It is but come on Cube,should of released the original material for the videos. 14 Classic Cube videos, like True to the game(very funny video), Check Yo Self, Wicked, It was a good day, and more.Pluse Wicked EPK which has The Red Hot Chilli Peppers kicking it wit Cube for the Wicked video. I do wished they added Hello, and Bow Down on here. But this is The volume 1 collection of videos. I'm proud to own this peice of work from Cube. Hurry and come out with volume 2 of those videos Cube.
