Cube initially wanted Dre to produce ‘AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted’
Ice Cube reveals that he originally asked Dr. Dre to produce his first solo record, AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted, but Eazy-E got in the way. After leaving the group N.W.A. on bad terms, Cube still wished Dre would be responsible for the creation of his first record.
“I still tried to be friends with the guys who had nothing to do with the business,” Cube said during a recent sit-down with Complex’s Idea Generation. “Me and Eazy was shaky, and I didn’t care about Jerry Heller at all, so it wasn’t no love lost there.
“But I tried to keep it together with Dre. I even wanted Dre to produce my solo record, and we was talking about it, but Eazy and Jerry vetoed it.”
