El hip hop es un género musical que incluye golpes rítmicos que acompañan a una voz principal que rapea. Este es un género musical muy popular y uno de los principales componentes de lo que es considerado como la cultura hip hop. Muchos espectáculos instrumentales en los que se presentan DJs sin apoyo vocal, también son abarcados bajo el género de la música hip hop. Esto se ha vuelto más popular dado que las técnicas de mezclado y sampleo (o muestreo) han madurado en los últimos años.
Ice Cube (nacido como O'Shea Jackson el 15 de junio de 1969 en Los Angeles, California) es un rapero y actor americano. Comenzó su carrera como miembro del polémico grupo de gangsta rap N.W.A., y posteriormente lanzaría su exitosa carrera en solitario en la música y en el cine. En los últimos años, su carrera como actor ha sido el centro de su vida, aunque no ha descuidado para nada el rap. Está considerado como uno de los iconos y figuras más influyentes en la industria del hip hop, particularmente por su rap intrépido y enfadado, y por tocar temas políticos y raciales en sus letras.
En junio de 2006, Cube lanzó su esperado álbum de reaparición titulado Laugh Now, Cry Later, bajo su propio sello discográfico, Da Lench Mob Records. En el álbum aparecen artistas como Snoop Dogg, Lil Jon y WC. El primer single fue "Why We Thugs", tema producido por Scott Storch.
