Ice Cube`s ferocious frown is familiar now from multiple big and small screen appearances, but as this collection reminds us, he`s still first and foremost the thinking street thug`s rapper, one of the original gangstas. GREATEST HITS isn`t sequenced chronologically, jumping frantically from 1998`s "Pushing Weight" to 1994`s "Check Yo Self" with its "Message" backing track, to 1990`s furious Public Enemy-influenced "Jackin` For Beats" (Ice Cube`s departure from P.E.`s rivals N.W.A. presaged his hooking up with the Bomb Squad, Public Enemy`s production team). But though the patchwork song list makes a clear overview of Cube`s career difficult, it also makes for some thrilling twists and turns, for instance between the rowdy, early-`90s "The Nigga Ya Love to Hate" to the equally tumultuous but more sophisticated "Late Night Hour," recorded in 2001. What`s obvious from even the most cursory overview of this set is Ice Cube`s huge contribution to rap and hip-hop music, and over a decade`s worth of unswerving dedication to putting his message across.
