One of the hardest gangsta rap tracks ever dropped. I'm a white boy primarily into death metal, and this record is just as intense as any of the weird shit I listen to. All the west and east coast greats helped push the limits on art and music, its just sad that alot of them aren't alive today to see the impact they had on the future generations
Lmao I'm literally the same. Scrawny ass white kid who came out the womb listening to 90's rap and death metal. My liked songs is a mix of Signs of the Swarm, Job For A Cowboy, Carnifex yada yada yada and Cube, Dre, Eminem, Big, NWA, Tupac, etc. lol. Take it easy brother.
What was cold about that "Fuck Charley Manson" line is he was talking about Reginald Denny, who got pulled out of his truck during the Rodney King riots, hit with a brick, and the ones who did it danced after.
Currently training and working towards becoming a pro mma fighter with the ufc, I’ve walked out to this song for years but it’s my dream to walk out to it on the big stage, tough ring walk song
Early Cube was a lyrical beast. He wrote all of Dre's raps in NWA. When Cube went solo his pen game went to a whole different level. As for the video, by the mid 90's the videos were a million plus easy. Check out just about anything Hype Williams made during that era
@@seanlo8330 I read Dr. Dre's & Jerry Heller's biography back in 2007. Both books said that The D.O.C. was the main writer for Dr. Dre & he wrote the clean raps for Eazy-E. They said that The D.O.C. was better at writing radio friendly songs.
Damn right it was a good day.. I remember Ice Cube emerging out of the ladies restroom with a hair pic. One of those iconic moments knowing that that beef had been squashed and that hereon the possibilities of collabos would be mind blowing..
Aside from everything else that has been mentioned here, another thing I’d like to point out is that there’s an alternate video of this song. If it’s not on RUclips, you can see it on the Death Row Uncut DVD compilation.
This song was released on the 'Murder Was the Case' sndtrk. Cube and Dre made up the after the untimely death of Eazy-E. All the beef was done. This song was the first since Cube left NWA that he and Dre recorded together again. And you are right its a million dollar video.
True Ice Cube did make a cameo in that video for 'Let Me Ride' but, he is not vocally featured on that song. N.B.K was the first recording both artist participated in after killing the beef some years later.
Straight up this track remains the stellar example of mean, dark, awake-those-demons-in-your-head raps of ALL time, at least in my book this song will never be beat for its lyrical savagery. From that first brooding backdoor beat, to the sinister lines they both unleash, this jam locks you in for the ride whether you want to go there or not.
1:34 This came out in 1994 as part of the "Murder Was The Case" soundtrack. This was Snoop's version of Thriller, meaning a music video turned into a mini movie. The soundtrack was fire, back then Death Row didn't miss!
Too bad we never got that Helter Skelter album they were supposed to do together. That album would've definitely changed the game if it came out in 94 or 95.
During this time of the W. Coast gangsta rap, videos were like mini movies, and watching the video was more of an experience. Many of Dre's videos were like this. "Been There Done" that was one of my other favs.
I'm sure most know when Dre says " cause when I grab my sawed off n****s get hauled off" and you hear a quick haha by Cube it's a reference to Cubes verse in Straight outta Compton when he says " I got a sawed off, squeeze the trigger and bodies are hauled off"
This dropped in 1994. By the end of beef between Dr Dre and Ice Cube was over. In fact the beef was over before Eazy-E died. They were going to reunite NWA. That was the plan before Eazy-E passed away
John amos from the legendary 📺 tv show sitcom good times in the beginning.this song is a classic.i remember this song i recorded it back in the day.word up son
Bro. Honestly, I love you for the choices that your making and the process your going through. Its amazing to re-experience the energy of the nineties hip hop. The comments also giving you insights that we had to innately learn kinda ting. You seem like your entering the horror core hip hop. I'm amazed to see Natural Born Killaz and the Gravediggaz reactions the same night. We love it... Ima meet y'all on the Gravediggaz reaction soon. Can't wait to see his response.... Oh If this is the energy, pls do Ice Cube and Scarface Hand of the dead body... You'll love it
i still have that video on vhs along with murder was the case. i'm not a hip hop fan, i'm more of a metal fan. but i do appreciate old school hip hop like this since it was popular when i was in middle school
Yep, at 5:47, Denny was a white trucker who was beaten during the 1992 LA riots, so many layers to Cube’s lyrics en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack_on_Reginald_Denny
The beef ended when Eazy-E died & Snoop started hatin on SugeKnight. SugeKnight is the same/ IDENTICAL to Don King the afro boxing promoter who robbed Tyson blind. He got 85% of ALL Tysons money when Tyson had 100 million dollar purse fights back in late 1980's & 90's.. Man that memory pisses me off.. Iim glaf Tyson found some calm happiness..His life after his dad died was sad & tragic & Don King swooped in like a vulture.. ~~Dr.Dre & SNoop Deepcover(cause itz 187 of undercover cop) was a song made for MC-REN! And NWA fans will remember how fire McRen was before he became 5%. MC Ren on Deepcover beat & angry aggro beat woulda been epic...In a alternate dimension where little things are off slightly like a left turn when you shoulda went right etc. That MC Ren Deepecover happened there.. & i wanna hear it! lol ~~Get Ice Cube The Predator & Lethal Injection.. BOTH albums are the type you listen to 500 times & learn to love how epic these rymes are & how funny.
TL;DR Helter Skelter I'm surprised no one has mentioned it, but this was originally going to be part of a Ice Cube/Dre album called Heltah Skeltah. The D.O.C was ghostwriting it. Maybe just Dre's parts idk. But he has been ghostwriting for Dre forever. Anyway, he was tired of not being paid enough, and Dre was holding him back from releasing his own stuff. He took his contributions for the album and bounced. He released Helter Skelter with a bunch of his people in Texas. One of my favorite albums of all time. It's very G-funk, but way darker like the production from this track. I would often have people ask me for music, as I have a huge collection and diverse taste. I would always include the album, and say nothing. Whether it was days, months, or longer, every single person always came back at me telling me how dope that album is and thanking me. Anyway. Check it out if you haven't heard it yet.
I remember when this came out. I was so hyped. When NWA split up, there were sides. Cube was on one, Dre the other. This was their first str8 bangah together. The video was like a movie. John Amos as Police Chief. He's the dad from Good Times & Coming To America. And the Pac reveal at the end was definitely iconic for the times back then. 1994 was a crazy good year for music.
React to East Coast/ West Coast Killas (Album Version) featuring Group Therapy (Scarface RBX, KRS-ONE, B-Real, and NAS) (Produced by Dr. Dre) From Dre's compilation album Dr. Dre Presents: The Aftermath
Don’t know if you caught the reference, “when I grab my sawed off/bodies get hauled off.” Cube said something similar on his straight outta compton verse
Check out Geto Boys...they are out of Houston and had very dark lyrics, but have a great sound. Thoroughly hardcore!! Try "Still" and "my mind's playin tricks on me."
Before they wrote this these dudes from America visiting in Singapore tagged some walls with spray paint and they got caught and they spent a few weeks in jail and got beat with bamboo 20 lashes.
Here's some Dr Dre gems that you haven't reacted to yet: "Lil Ghetto Boy” "Role Model” "It's Funky Enough” "Hello” "Gin & Juice” "Business” "Dopeman” "Break Ya Neck” "Doggystyle” "Fight Music” "How We Do"
During that time in the 1990s, Dr Dre, Ice Cube & MC Ren should have done an album. They could not called it NWA because Eazy E was the voice of the group.
![BLACK BAG - Official Trailer [HD] - Only in Theaters March 14](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Du0Xp8WX_7I/mqdefault.jpg)
That 2Pac cameo at the end is straight iconic
@Sly Boogy Yes it was younging.
@Sly Boogy yeah it was.
@Sly Boogy it absolutely was, are you on bath salts?
I thought he didn't notice the Tupac cameo because that video suggestion pop up at the end covered

👍🏾🙏🏾
Real talk bro.. you know your history.. You just had to be there in that era to fully appreciate that reference..
remember that shit like yesterday....
@@Cameo718. I was born in 91 and I knew about the riots I caught that reference
Yeah he was a crip
There was a death match wrestler in in a company called ECW the 90s named New Jack who would have this song play during his matches, it was wild.
Q- Why's his music play after he gets into the ring?
A- I ain't turning this crazy motherfucker's music off.
Currently training and working towards becoming a pro mma fighter with the ufc, I’ve walked out to this song for years but it’s my dream to walk out to it on the big stage, tough ring walk song
New jack a legend ✊🏾
I was actually at the match in Danbury CT where he fell off the scaffold and that other 300lb dude basically fell on his head

Big facts. But also important to note: Del penned a lot of Cube’s early solo stuff too
@aryan raina Cube can’t write…whatever is crazy. You think Dre wrote his verse?
The D.O.C. & MC Ren also wrote for Dr. Dre.
Don’t disrespect the D.O.C like that lol

Dre and Cube killed this track...still hits all these years later
This was made in 1994 after the beef with Dre and Cube was over
Damn right it was a good day.. I remember Ice Cube emerging out of the ladies restroom with a hair pic. One of those iconic moments knowing that that beef had been squashed and that hereon the possibilities of collabos would be mind blowing..

Didnt chronic come out in 92 ? And Ice Cube had a cameo in Let me ride
True Ice Cube did make a cameo in that video for 'Let Me Ride' but,
he is not vocally featured on that song. N.B.K was the first recording both artist participated in after killing the beef some years later.
Murder Was the Case was the soundtrack to my life
Great album!!
This was released in 1994. Eazy died in early 1995.
This beat blew me away when I first heard it!!
One of the most flawless songs ever made in hip hop . You couldn’t do it no better .
Straight up this track remains the stellar example of mean, dark, awake-those-demons-in-your-head raps of ALL time, at least in my book this song will never be beat for its lyrical savagery.

This song is so DOPE!! It made me want a Dre and Cube collab album together. 90's cube was no joke.
Too bad we never got that Helter Skelter album they were supposed to do together. That album would've definitely changed the game if it came out in 94 or 95.
Great reaction! Another suggestion for you would be "Puppet Master" by Dr. Dre & B-Real from Cypress Hill.
People don't even know about that and how iconic it is so shhhh
This man went back to back with the super hardcore rap. Mid 90’s was the peak of this type of rap
During this time of the W. Coast gangsta rap, videos were like mini movies, and watching the video was more of an experience. Many of Dre's videos were like this. "Been There Done" that was one of my other favs.
On Snoop's Doggy style album is a track called murder was the case. He released a video of the same name and this vid was a bonus on the end of that
Now you GOTTA check out "Puppet Master" by Cypress Hill w/Dr. Dre. Just as dark, and a fire ass beat.
Cosign this
I told him to react or at least listen to the whole Soul Assassins Vol 1. He won't be disappointed.
king i havent seen that bad of stankface since i first heard that shit back in the 90s from the opening beat old school tunes slam hard
First time ive seen anyone react to this. This is one of the most unknown and underrated songs. It is absolutely one of my favorite cuts.
Thank God they squashed their beef back then. The chemistry between Dr. Dre & Ice Cube is crazy!
I'm sure most know when Dre says " cause when I grab my sawed off n****s get hauled off" and you hear a quick haha by Cube it's a reference to Cubes verse in Straight outta Compton when he says " I got a sawed off, squeeze the trigger and bodies are hauled off"

Back to music I can fux with 😁 The opening to this is so epic, then that bassline
When this song ends I immediately hear "What Would U Do?" - Dogg Pound...Murda Was the Case soundtrack was life in middle school
Hell yeah bruh
Dr Dre and Ice Cube were actually planning on doing a joint album together called Helter Skelter
This was when Death Row Records and the west coast dominated the hip-hop/rap charts.
John amos from the legendary 📺 tv show sitcom good times in the beginning.this song is a classic.i remember this song i recorded it back in the day.word up son
Yes man reminded me of his part in Die Hard 2..
Finally! I’ve been waiting for this one !🔥🔥
The faces you make when you like the beat are gold lol
That’s What True Hip Hop Does ✊🏿
Right. Everybody has that face.
Bro. Honestly, I love you for the choices that your making and the process your going through.
Its amazing to re-experience the energy of the nineties hip hop.
The comments also giving you insights that we had to innately learn kinda ting.
You seem like your entering the horror core hip hop.

We love it... Ima meet y'all on the Gravediggaz reaction soon.
Can't wait to see his response....
Oh
If this is the energy, pls do Ice Cube and Scarface Hand of the dead body...
You'll love it
The funniest thing about when Dre does songs with other rappers is that you can always tell the other rapper on the track wrote his verse for him.
J flex wrote dre verse not cube
Ice Cube didn’t write Dre’s verse. It was a Death Row artist named J Flexx
1994, it was part of my daily plays. 13 years old bumping this on my walkman while doing gangster shit.
i still have that video on vhs along with murder was the case. i'm not a hip hop fan, i'm more of a metal fan. but i do appreciate old school hip hop like this since it was popular when i was in middle school
Yall catch Cube's Reginald Denning reference.
Listen to Dre's "Keep Their Heads Rimging". Whoever wrote it deserves a ghetto grammy.
A Death Row artist by the name of J Flexx
Yep, at 5:47, Denny was a white trucker who was beaten during the 1992 LA riots, so many layers to Cube’s lyrics en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack_on_Reginald_Denny
Yeeeesssssss!! I’ve been requesting this video on almost all your vid’s cause I knew it wouldn’t disappoint!! Thanks young brother!
This song video is also referencing the OJ Simpson murder. But it's a complete banger!
well if you do the math No Vaseline came out in 91 and this song came out in 94 so I guess that answers your question.
The most metal rap song in history! RIP New Jack
@@CelticsCartel Either this or Cypress Hill - I Could Just Kill a Man.
This has to be one of the top 3 hardest songs ever made, if not the most

Matter of fact, i have it om my phone now in 2024😃
This Got To Be One Of Cube Hardest Tracks
This banger never gets old 💯💯🔥
This was the perfect them song for New Jack (RIP) when he was in ECW!

Checkout "WestSide Connection" stuff......Dr. Dre songs "Keep their heads ring'in"....."Deep Cover"
I haven’t listened to this song in 26 years still know it word for word
it was the theme for New Jack / The Gangstas in Extreme Championship Wrestling back in the day and would play on loop throughout the matches
This hip hop never die!90s real time 1994!2023!
The album version was much more scary/violent sounding then the video
I wonder how many people actually know this song because of New Jack
React to East Coast/ West Coast Killas (Album Version) featuring Group Therapy (Scarface RBX, KRS-ONE, B-Real, and NAS) (Produced by Dr. Dre) From Dre's compilation album Dr. Dre Presents: The Aftermath
There was a movie called Natural Born Killers with Woody Haroldson
And they say it wasnt no murder music back then 😂 its the same shit as drill but they not dissing the dead
Tupac is the sniper at the end
Back when videos use to be Mini movies!!!
Don’t know if you caught the reference, “when I grab my sawed off/bodies get hauled off.” Cube said something similar on his straight outta compton verse
Try Da Lench Mob "Guerillas in the Mist"
I just connected this video to 'Captain America The Winter Soldier' AND 'Juice' because of Tupac's cameo only two days ago.
Trust me.
Ice Cube - Ghetto Vet 🔥🔥🔥
Yup!
Dreiscubesmentor❤
They caught heat for that video when they re-enacted Nicole Simpson’s murder.
If you haven’t already do “Only in California” Mack 10, snoop and ice cube. It won’t disappoint. The Wes coast gangster rap era is unmatched.
Should have done this fucking song at the Super Bowl...

I believe Dre Lyrics were ghost written by JFlexxx
Sam Sneed ft. Dr Dre - "U Better Recognize"
Don't tell them about that keep it to your self
The scenes are remakes of real Murders. The 1st was the Manendez brothers killing their parents and the 2nd was O.J. Simpson killing Ron and Nicole
2024 still classic 🔥🔥🔥
This inspired Nipsey's "Rap Niggaz" on the Victory Lap album
