When you think of West Coast hip hop one of the artist that immediately comes to mind is Ice Cube. He is set to drop his tenth studio album Everythang\u2019s Corrupt<\/em><\/strong> by the end of the year. Ice Cube has been in the game since 1984 as part of the group C.I.A.\u00a0 The other members were K-Dee and Sir Jinx who made their mark on West Coast hip hop in their own right. He would then go on to join one of the most impactful groups N.W.A to then branch off as a solo artist. It was during this transition where Ice Cube would build and establish ties with the East Coast hip hop movement.<\/p>\n

Ice Cube and Sir Jinx relocated to New York City to work on 1990\u2019s AmeriKKKa\u2019s Most Wanted<\/em><\/strong>. During this time Ice Cube reached out to the Bomb Squad, the in-house producers for Public Enemy. The album ended up being a co-production between Sir Jinx and the Bomb Squad, most notably Hank Shocklee. The end result was a classic and considered to be one of the most impactful hip hop albums of all-time. Chuck D, front man of Public Enemy made an appearance on the track \u201cEndangered Species\u201d.<\/p>\n
