Adam & Chad LOVED Ice Cube when they were tweeners in the early 90’s.  His lyrics opened their eyes to all sorts of things they didn’t experience in their middle class suburban lives.  It was SO COOL at the time.

Now that the guys are middle aged professionals, how do they feel about it after going back to Ice Cube’s early solo career for the first time in nearly a quarter century?  They grapple with their adulthood and some really rough themes found in the music.  Is the music still as cool now as they thought it was then?

This is a different type of episode.  A deep discussion of sexuality, race and power in music.  And go to Patreon for Part 2 of this episode where the boys dissect each of Cube’s first five albums track by track.
