It Takes A Nation To Hold Ice Cube Back
After a series of family comedies and half-baked action flicks, the original Ice Cube finally seems to be coming back. If you love the militant, political-minded shit-talking Dough Boy from the AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted era, you’ll probably like “It Takes A Nation,” the official new single from his forthcoming album Raw Footage. This joint, produced by NY beatmaker Emile, sounds a bit similar to Jay’s “Takeover,” and Cube’s verses are filled with just as much venom. He takes aim at Clear Channel’s radio programmers, touts the virtues of staying independent and proclaims himself “the only rapper wanna fist-fight the President.” That’s gangsta! Listen closely after the jump.
