Ok, I tried. I really did.
Ice Cube’s two previous albums had been (rightly) criticised for being misogynistic and anti-Semitic. This album was released in the wake of the Rodney King riots, and makes powerful points about racism and police brutality.
However, we get to the track Fuck ‘Em which features an excerpt of an interview where he is explicitly asked about calling women “bitches and hoes” and accusations of anti-semitism, and instead of apologising or moving on he just says ‘Fuck ‘em’ and waffles on for a bit. The next track is straight back in with the misogyny.
Nope, I’m out.
