Biohazard EXTREME Well, honestly, I haven't seen any of the Riddick movies. But Ice Cube's redeeming factor was Boyz-N-The-Hood, Three Kings, Ghosts of Mars, and not to mention all the rap albums that he still makes, that are more rugged and more raw than half the 'gangsta' rappers that are dominating the charts. Ice Cube's one of the only ones who's actually keeping it real. He's one of the only ones who's got so much money that he doesn't have to rap if he doesn't want to, meaning he does it for his own enjoyment, meaning he's not controlled by promoters who tell their artists what to rap about. You'd enjoy Pitch Black. Don't watch the Riddick movies. They're not the most enamoring thing in the world, trust me. Remember the cheese? >_>
I agree on the movies. I have yet to watch them all the way through, but I've never heard of Ghosts of Mars. I guess we both need catching up on our film. wink

Biohazard EXTREME Anyway, I think cheesiness is underrated. I mean look at Street Fighter, with Van Damme. Cheesy? Absolutely. But it was entertaining, and fun to watch. Then look at Legend of Chun Li, it tried go to for a serious storyline, realistic costumes and stuff, and as a reult, it ended up being boring. Yeah, I can go for cheesy sometimes. Is it any wonder that I love Kung Pow: Enter The Fist? No, because it's so stupid, it has to be funny. mrgreen
(I'm still waiting on that sequel.)

Uhhh, actually, I was listening to a radio show a while back, and they were talking to NWA's old agent. He said they were all good kids, and the only one who did any gangsta s**t of any kind was Easy-E, who was a drug dealer.

Well, that Ice Cube is one of the only rappers out there who actually went to college and got a business degree is a known fact. But it doesn't change the fact that he still grew up in the ghetto. Besides, back in the days of NWA, Ice Cube was only like 18 years old in 1988, NWA fell apart in 1991, so it's not like back then Ice Cube just bought a big house and moved out of South Central. In fact, since Eazy-E pretty much ripped off all the other members of NWA, it's not like Ice Cube was swimming with money at that point. I mean, yeah, he was the first one to leave NWA in 1990, but it's not like his albums have been HUGE sellers. Not like today when rappers get upset when they don't go triple platinum. Back then, he was happy if he could go platinum period. But he doesn't have to sell drugs and shoot up people to have street credit.
