Ice Cube Explains Why 'No Vaseline' Is The Greatest Diss Track Ever

by HHL JT

Many folks think Ice Cube's 1991 track "No Vaseline" is the greatest diss ever.

Ice Cube is among those folks. 

There's been much timeline discussion of diss tracks in light of the Kendrick-Drake beef.

During a recent show, Cube decided to clarify things.

Ice Cube says “No Vaseline” is a better diss track than Kendrick Lamar’s Drake diss “Not Like Us,” and Nas’ Jay-Z diss “Ether.”

"I love those songs," he said of Kendrick's "Not Like Us' and Nas's "Ether.  "But "No Vaseline: is the best diss song in the history of Hip Hop.  I'll tell you why.  One emcee, myself, I took out four motherf*ckers and their manager."

The track was directed at Cube's four ex-NWA bros, Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, MC Ren, DJ Yella, and their notorious manager, Jerry Heller.

Do you think Kendrick Lamar will be hyping up "Not Like Us" when he's 54?
