Ice Cube says “No Vaseline” was Better than Tupac’s “Hit Em Up

Cube was the only one on the song and took on a whole crew BY Himself. I got to give it to Cube. Hit Em was Fire! But Cube was 1 against 4.

Ice says in the interview: “2 Pac’s was banging, but my loop was better too. Using that Dazz, that “Brick” [loop]… nah, nah, you gotta give it up to Pac. He’s one of the best that ever picked up a mic. But if he was here, I’d still tell him: You can’t fade ‘No Vaseline.’” When asked who he had in terms of 2 Pac versus Biggie, Cube said “If I’m talking about onstage passion, emcee from the heart, that’s 2 Pac. I’m just talking about lyrically gymnastics, that’s Biggie.” Listen above.
