Recently Mack 10 opened up about his fall out with fellow Westside Connection rap artist Ice Cube. In an interview with All Hip Hop, Mack unveiled that Cube’s wife and brother-in-law may have caused the drama. “We had an argument and I guess it was taken the wrong way because his wife was present,” he continued, “If she wasn’t there, we would probably still be doing records. His brother-in-law was disrespectful in a certain way.”
Last month, Ice Cube brought up his former group mate and clarified rumors about Westside Connection in his blog, aptly titled “I AM THE WEST (part 2).” In the post Cube penned, “New Westside Connection? Nothing planned. But just for the record. I own the rights. I put Mack 10 in the Connect gang, he didn’t put me in. That’s my shit.”
When asked if Mack missed being in the super group, he replied, “I think I miss what Westside Connection meant to the coast. I don’t have time to feel all that about it but I miss what we meant to the West. I don’t have no problem getting money. WC doesn’t have any problems, I’m sure.”
Both artists are currently working on new albums. Mack 10 has a compilation release with Glasses Malone titled Money Music, and Ice Cube is dropping his I Am The West, both slated for release on July 13.
Damn…I got more respect for Cube..but they both doing their G Thang! Cube IS the west coast tho…nobody can front…if not, then WHO IS!!!??? Only person ‘alive’ who can match with cube is game and Dre!
i know a lotta ppl will disagree with this since Cube is from the best era of hip hop, but Game is way better than Cube. Cube isnt very lyrical, even though his shit is dope. Game’s crazy lyrical and the namedropping that ppl hate is actually a good thing cuz its like hes givin a hiphop history lesson (which most listeners need) in his songs. also, ‘The Documentary’ is way better than any Cube album.
let me guess…@Main Attaction, eiher you were born yesterday OR your too young to even ‘listen’ to a ice Cube album get it right homie it’s ICE cube not cube or lil cube or any of that retarded new sh!t you make up. ya digg? fuk outta here with that! just cause game is what hear in your radio station doesnt mean hes the best
The Documentary is not Better than Death Certificate Homey……………Games Name droppen is gay and not good plus its like he has a gay thing for dr dre………………………The Game aint got on CUbe
What you on about?? I’m a big game fan and even know Ice Cube is the man!!! There is no comparison. “Leathal Injection” and “The Predator” shit all over “The Documentary” when it comes to lyrics, check them out before you decide to comment!!
I like Game, but I see alot of Cube in Game, know he influenced his style, Amerikkas Most Wanted, Kill At Will,Death Cirtificate, Predator and Leathal Injection all classics, but No Vasolene is probaly one of the best diss records ever made
I can see where you are coming from about Game namedropping like he does, but I don’t totally agree. Game does it way out of control and it fires back on him. Dropping Jay Z’s name for example. He goes from dickriding Jay to dissin’ him. 2nd, you are smoking some dust stating that Game is better than Cube straight up.
Fuck Dre! Eminem & 50 aint WEST – When is the last time Dre fucked with A West Coast cat – Dre haven’t repped the West in a long time.
Get back together dummies. Y’all need each other.
their first album was classic.
JUST REPLACE MACK 10 WITH GAME LIKE EVERYONE KEEPS TALKING ABOUT. END OF DISCUSSION.
double fail
yessir
this will be a good move for cube but he ain’t listen. I think they could bring out the real lyrical beast in Game. Wc legend and Cube legend. The game would fit right in..But it must be called the new west or it will not work.

Mack 10 is a clown. he went from bein a west coast nigga to hangin with niggas like lil wayne and rick ross, niggas a clown
fail
CUBES AN OLD ASS NIGGA, SHOULD RETIRE REAL TALK
HIS OLD SHIT WAS CLASSIC, BUT TALKIN ALL THAT SHIT NOW WHEN THIS NIGGA ON TV PLAYIN A COP AINT RIGHT
HIS NEW SHIT GOOD BUT AINT AS GOOD AS OLD CUBE SO HE SHOULD RETIRE, LET JAY ROCK, NIPSEY HUSSLE & LIL EAZY-E BE THE NEW WEST (IF ANYONE OF THEIR ALBUMS EVER DROPS…)
how in the fuck is u gonna say cube needs to retire u cant tell me laugh now cry later was solid.
an u got it twisted its ice t who plays a cop on tv u fuckin idiot… lil eazy e is a lame if he drops he will b shittin on his dads legacy!
LIL NIGGA BE QUIET, POINT IS CUBE IS WHACK
GET REAL LIL EAZY-E AINT RELEASED NO REAL SHIT ALL BEEN PROMO
WAIT TILL YOU HEAR THE TRACK HES DONE WITH CUBE, SHIT WILL BE CRAZY BUT CUBE AINT WORTH A WHOLE ALBUM
FUCK ICE T ROCK AND ROLL DINOSAUR ASS NIGGA
Yung probably one of those spandex-pant wearing new school fags. Jay Rock out of the names you dropped represents the West very proper. But Cube is forever whether you agree or not. Go bump some “Child Support” from Cube and stay in ya place.
Im gettin tired of lame ass niggas sayin Cube need to retire. Jay-Z and Cube is the same damn age , i don’t hear nobody sayin Jay-Z bitch ass should retire tho. why is that
JAY-Z SHOULD HAVE GOOD OUT YEARS AGO BLUEPRINT 3 WAS WHACK, HE JUST SELLIN RECORDS NOW CUS THE KIDS SEE HIS NAME AND NEVER HEAR ABOUT THE NEW WEST. NAS KILLED JAY ANYWAYS, PERIOD.
FIRST- more people said that Jay-Z should retire (based purely off hate) than any other MC…Cube, Too $hort, and a few others get told to retire also…
SECOND- this is a HUGE problem with the way “mainstream” and “corporate amerikkka” have brainwashed our youth…NO ONE in the rock community would EVER tell Aerosmith to retire!…most young “hip-hop” fans don’t respect our culture enough to appreciate Ice Cube…everything to the youngsters is a fad!
LAST- Ice Cube=West, Scarface=South, Twista=MidWest, & JaY-Z=East…greatest rappers Alive!….(not my FAVORITE) bu the GREATEST consistent MCs from their regions…i say they retire whenever the HELL they want!
nobody’s tell Jay to retire because Jay’s telling everyone his retiring after every album, then saying he’s gonna drop a new album. GTFOHWTS
mack 10 should wake up and write cube a thank you letter everyday. only reason cats ever fucked with wack 10 was cuz he had cube in his corner. peep his discography. it was only poppin when cube was steering. this chump wack 10 the reason we never gonna get another westside connection album. cube and wc should drop an album and say fuck wack 10. wack 10 the reason the last west side connection album sucked.
The real Westside Connection should consist of Ice Cube, WC, Kurupt, Mack 10, The Game, and Crooked I. Now that group would be sick!
fuck the game nigga put snoop at his place
Those 2 need to sit down and talk and quit bullshitting and squash that little petty shit and get back to making some good music, Westside Connection was solid
wack 10 nigga got tooken out by a conscious rapper lol
who???
Common Sense. “The Bitch In You”
hi i think you guys are best together closed to brothers so why breaking up when others are breaking up.
Yea never really wanted to listen to Mack 10 without wc or cube. When i think west coast i think Ice cube and Snoop. Say whatever u want bout dre but he doesnt do enough for me to even consider him. Ok Dre was killin it from 88-94 but cmon we have been waitin on the detox since ’03. Truthfully i dont even care bout that punk ass album anymore. Crooked I need to drop

Mack 10 is solid…Heavy rotation in the Lexus! LoL!!
Obviously it was sum personal sh!t that MEN go thru. Cubes wife and family should stay in their lane and let those Men settle their problem.
I just hope they work things out before the internet and rumors get too deep and their ego’s take over.
Reading sum of these repsonses, its no surprise that the West has fallen so far. 🙁
