Chill with IceBy Travis RitterPublished on May 18, 2006After watching Ice Cube star opposite two children in last year's family flick Are We There Yet?, it's hard to remember that deep down, he's a bona fide gangsta rapper. Sure, during this decade, the South Central Los Angeles-raised Cube has been more visible on the silver screen than on recordings (who could forget his Craig character in the Friday trilogy?). But the N.W.A founder-turned-successful solo rapper can still bust his chops with some weighty gangsta matter. Expect to hear a good chunk of material off his forthcoming full-length, Laugh Now, Cry Later, when Cube comes to Warehouse Live today. It's his first new material since 2000's War & Peace, Vol. 2., and Cube's signature street-savvy rhymes and fierce delivery can be heard on tracks like "Smoke Some Weed," "Why We Thugs," "Chrome and Paint" and "Stop Snitchin'." It's gonna be a good day when Cube takes the stage after Tha Dogg Pound, Clipse and Jiggalo open.
