AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted Reviews:
One of the 5 best hip-hop records.EVER!! 
2009-10-20 - Yes, it's true, Ice Cube's "AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted" is one of the 5 best rap records ever. The other four in not particular order are, BDP "Criminal Minded", De La Soul, " 3 Feet High And Rising", Public Enemy, "It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back" and NWA "Straight Outta Compton. Now, this is no disrespect to HOVA and all the 90's and current stuff but those records were monumental in influence and artistry. Those 5 albums gave birth to the current styles of hip-hop. AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted is the perfect marriage of east/west coast textures, it's true rap fusion!
Lyrically devastating and rhythmically chaotic, it's Ice Cube's "Songs In The Key of Life" or "Sing O' The Times". The album made him a true legend.
Album is classic!
2009-07-05 - Not a bad song on here. I really only wrote this reveiw beacause of the kid that said that he wasn't gangsta enough on thins album..........com'on what are you talking about just beacause he doesn't talking bout packing a gun in every song means it ain't gangstA?
Cube without Dre 
2008-08-15 - Like the title says,the production on this record is terrible. Which makes most of the cd terrible If you liked straight outta compton you probably won't like this one, too "east coast" for me.
Ice Cube's Finest Moment
2008-06-24 - Ice Cube didn't need to be in N.W.A. in order to be a classic MC. After he departed the group in 1989, he starts recording under his own name, in which he can express his ideas well without anything holding him back. After many listens to this album, I can easily say that this is the best thing that has ever been released by an N.W.A. affiliated member? Why do I say that?
First off, Ice Cube was one impressive lyricist. While he kept his gangsta rap roots that he got from N.W.A., he also adds a conscious twist to his lyrics not unlike Public Enemy and KRS-One/BDP. Cube addressed real-life situations in his songs, whether it would be police brutality based on the Rodney King incident("Endangered Species"), unplanned pregnancy and trying to get out of it ("You Can't Fade Me"), talking to the kids ("A Gangster's Fairytale") or even a battle of the sexes involving female rapper Yo-Yo in "It's a Man's World". Whatever situation Cube brought up, he always knew how to bring it up perfectly through his rhymes.
The Bomb Squad's production is ace. The samples used, featuring newscasts and other sayings based on Cube's lyrics, blend in a perfect sense. It's completely original and even stands the test of time with its style.
Along with this West Coast classic, we also have the "Kill at Will" EP included as well, being originally released in late 1990, not many months after this. The EP tracks feature a remix of "Endangered Species", in which Chuck D from Public Enemy raps a completely new verse, the multi-instrumental beats used with Cube's rapping in "Jackin' for Beats", and the single "Dead Homiez" that focuses on killings in urban society. "Kill at Will" has 4 newer tracks, 2 remixes of AMW tracks and a short interlude.
This is definitely the package to pick up if you want to hear Ice Cube at the top of his game. Even after over 15 years, it still sounds as refreshing as it was back then.
You'll never catch him!
2007-02-23 - Ice Cube leaving NWA was the best move because mentally he was light years ahead of them. This album is more gangsta than conscious but it still has its gems like THE N***A YA LOVE TO HATE, AMERIKKKA'S MOST WANTED, YOU CANT FADE ME, ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE PROJECTS, TURN OF THE RADIO(this song inspired Dead Prez's mixtape), A GANGSTA'S FAIRYTALE, ROLLIN WITH THE LENCH MOB, WHO'S THE MACK, JACKIN FOR BEATS, THE PRODUCT and DEAD HOMIEZ. Filler: Im Only Out For One Thang(featuring Flava Flav or Slava Slave)is the only track that is weak. Bottom Line: Amerikkka's Most Wanted is a magnificent debut by one of the most important emcee of our time. Its a must have for any rap fan who remembers what Ice Cube was.
