Wish They’d Come Up With A 12-PackIce Cube

Songwriter: Ice Cube

[Verse]
It's the summertime, everybody's getting wine
When you go to the store, could you please make mine
A St. Ides, and watch me drink it quick
At the family barbecue or the picnic
'Cause it's so hot this time of year
And if you're looking for a brand new beer
Grab that S-T-Crooked-I, it's ironic
It's not the Miller but smooth, it's like the chronic, bionic
And all the homies'll wanna take a sip
Of your brews with St. Ides and then take a dip
In the shade is where I was
And I'm sorry, lemonade never got me buzzed like this
It feels so good, Black
I kinda wish they'd come up with a 12-pack

Ice Cube

Straight outta South Central Los Angeles, Ice Cube became one of the most respected rappers in hip-hop, helping to usher in the era of gangsta rap with N.W.A and as a solo artist. He has gone on to become a mogul in Hollywood but still remains true to the game that brought him his success.

Born O'Shea Jackson on June 15, 1969, Ice Cube got his name from his older brother, who threatened to put him in a freezer and pull him out when he was an ice cube. He began rapping in high school and started his rap career as a member of Stereo Crew, which released the single “She’s a Skag” through Epic Records in 1986, and C.I.A. with the 1987 track “My Posse.” Both groups featured producer Sir Jinx, the cousin of DJ/producer Dr. Dre.

Ice Cube’s big break came when he wrote the song “Boyz n the Hood” for Eazy-E, which led to the formation of N.W.A. as a group. After the release of the 1987 compilation N.W.A. and the Posse, the group released their classic debut Straight Outta Compton in 1988. A financial dispute caused Cube to leave the group in 1989 and start his successful solo career, starting with his 1990 platinum debut Amerikkka’s Most Wanted.
