“For 7 or 8 years now the West Coast has been trying to do music that appeals to the South and Mid-West. The words, ‘too West Coast’ would be heard throughout the industry whenever our music was played. Even by our own dj’s. Left coast MC’s were now trying to change their sound to cater to all the followers. We lost our way. Thank God for b-boys like Snoop, The Game & WC for keeping the West alive, but we were all guilty of over reaching. No more. At least not from me. I do it how I feel it; not how I think it should be done. Radio fucked us up. I hate the politics at radio. I don’t know who to pay to get my shit played. Having a hot song is not enough. Ridiculous.”

This shit is real. Like he’s never been gone before. Forget about ”Are we there yet?” or the other kiddie movies. These are a whole different side to him. Music is Cubes root, and the root goes back to the westside, to California, the ghetto. Therefore, after these years in the movies, Cube returns like he’s never been away and shows the suffering westside music scene, what the west really has to sound like. I think he is right.
