Best known for the vitriol of his angry black man recordings of the late 1980s and mid 1990s, Ice Cube epitomizes the genre often referred to as gangsta rap. Much of his music from these years is focused on the disturbing realities of life in black urban ghettos, and as a result it chronicles such complex and controversial issues as racial stereotypes, street gangs, racial profiling, black on black crime, teen pregnancy, absentee fathers, and male-female relationships. His recordings with NWA are noteworthy for Praeger singer-songwriter collection.Rap musiciansUnited StatesBiographyMotion picture actors and actressesUnited StatesBiographyGangsta rap (Music)Social aspectsRap musiciansMotion picture actors and actressesGangsta rap (Music)Social aspects.782.421649092Woldu Gail Hilson1645103DLCDLCDLCBOOK9910809276103321The words and music of Ice Cube3991378UNINA
