One of the best diss tracks ever

[@travisspaulding2222]

For real. Top 3 diss tracks in no particular order: No Vaseline Ether Hit em Up.

[@ICP1SBJ]

yup it's the most savage disses.. But this came back in a time when you could call people gay or talk ish about jews without being canceled. I loved NWA but Cube had a much better rap career than any of the others when you look at longevity.

[@DaRealShinjiMcCloud]

​@@travisspaulding2222SUPER FACTS hit em up would be #6 in my honest opinion but Dollaz and sense was more lethal for a top 3

[@Matt.Savage]

​@@DaRealShinjiMcCloudAgreed, Hit 'Em Up is mad overrated. But Ether & No Vaseline are definitely the 2 best diss tracks of All-Time!💯

[@ISTWTT]

What do you mean "one of the best "? There's no diss song better than this.

[@aceitaliano88]

The N.W.A. was done after this they never came back after diss track. Ice Cube bodied an entire group with this one track.

[@thereeldeal7858]

No..... They were splitting up before this song came out. This song affected nothing. In fact, later members of NWA such as Dre went on to become way richer and famouser than Cube. All in all, this song isn't even decent.

[@arizonaFIREent]

​@@thereeldeal7858facts

[@burakcoskun38]

​@@thereeldeal7858yes.. Not really eazy, yella, dre ren were still a group back then but Vaseline gave it the ultimate blow. Dre becoming richer doesn't take anything from the diss ure just looking for a cop out. All in all its much more decent then your dre meatiriding butt would Like to admit

[@evilfantasy69]

​@@thereeldeal7858 That comment is laced with a bit of hater lol. This track is consistently listed in the top 3 diss tracks of all time. Dre is famous for the Beats brand name and producing for Em and Snoop. Cube is famous for Hollywood movies, rapping and now his basketball league. Both equally respectable they just took different paths to fame and fortune.

[@TheOGgUeRiLlaMoDe]

Not long after this dre went to death row I feel that was the best idea

Ice Cube’s solo albums in the early 90s Death Certificate and The Predator are hardcore af, definitely mellowed quite a lot since lol

[@J1ntu]

I remember putting this on a loop the first time I heard it. The whole theater lost their minds when we were watching Straight Outta Compton and this scene popped up

[@sumonjamal1653]

This was Ice Cube's diss track in response to the N.W.A. track '100 miles and running' ... Ice Cube didn't say anything at his former group on his first solo album and was miffed when they dissed him. The issue w/ N.W.A. was that Eazy-E was the guy who put his money into the group and found success making his imprint Ruthless Records... In his mind, he was getting his due back for his investment once the group was successful. Jerry Heller was a manager from the 70's but his roster of artists were running dry in the 80's cos they were not making money... He saw N.W.A. as an opportunity to promote music that he felt would be as 'important as the birth of rock n roll' ... and he was right. He helped Eazy-E get Ruthless a major distribution and N.W.A. a foot in the music industry. The problem was that Jerry Heller, like most 70's (and 80's) managers, ran his business in rather unfair terms to the artists - they treated band and groups like paid employees while taking a lion's share of the profits they made... It was what turned artists against them and many bands found themselves broke because managers and labels had ripped them off... And like most managers, Heller gravitated towards Eazy-E (since he was the guy funding N.W.A. and ran the business side) and made sure that he was getting paid the most while the others were just getting a paycheck. Heller also manipulated the members of N.W.A. to keep control of the group to his advantage; another common tactic used by managers. The way Jerry Heller looked at N.W.A. was that everyone was a replaceable employee - and that was not the case... Dr. Dre and Ice Cube were the most valuable talent in the group... Heller drew up standard contracts for N.W.A. members that gave them a huge ca$h advance and they signed willingly. But Ice Cube was suspicious and discovered that the advance was a small fraction of the money N.W.A. was making ($10K for each member out of 1 Million $$$ profit was rather lop-sided) ... Ice Cube refused to sign and demanded a fair share... Eazy-E and Jerry Heller refused; he would sign the contract or he was out... Ice Cube bailed and got his own record contract and solo album out. With Ice Cube having a hit solo album, N.W.A. were seething w/ jealousy and disapproval... and that fueled the animosity. They dissed Ice Cube... so, he responded w/ 'No vaseline' on his 2nd solo album. By 1991, Dr. Dre discovered that he was not getting paid fairly for his contributions and Ice Cube was right - the contract he had signed was financially unfair... He demanded Eazy-E give him a better contract but Eazy refused. Dr. Dre stopped working and made plans to bail himself and form a new label but his contract w/ Ruthless Records was in the way.... That was when Suge Knight offered to handle his predicament - Suge allegedly went to Eazy-E and got violent w/ him to sign a contractual release for Dr. Dre... Without Ice Cube and Dr. Dre, there was no N.W.A. and by 1993, Ruthless Records was in decline as Ice Cube was a successful solo rapper and Dr. Dre launched Death Row records w/ Suge Knight and made Million$... while Eazy-E was downsizing fast. According to Eazy's wife Tomika, she discovered that as Ruthless Records was in financial decline, Jerry Heller was taking money to profit his bottom line and she claimed that Eazy-E finally let Heller go... N.W.A. talked about reconciling without Heller involved and making a 3rd album by 1995 but Eazy-E died from AIDS soon after.

[@MrGuy99]

Thank you that clears things up

Partly an answer to that, but also to "A Message to B.A." from EFIL$ZAGGIN

[@kennethcole8360]

Lilly Jane really understood the assignment! Your interpretation of that intro was spot on and was really the strength of that diss track!

[@kimai1641]

Cube was savage as FxxK! There's good reason why this track was so funny. Cube is an incredible lyricist. Cube is a modern day poet and 2Pac was also an incredible poet. They both paint the scene so you can picture what is happening with or without music videos.

You've just come up in my KZbin algorithm and your reaction was interesting. No Vaseline was so savage back in the day. I was 17 when he dropped that one. I don't know if you've seen/heard Tupac's 'Hit 'em Up' yet, but that's another great Diss track.

[@TheEMFB]

I haven't heard this in years! Thanks, homegirl! ✌️☝️🫶

[@chirsmma3289]

This diss track made a very important lesson. Don’t diss the guy who writes all the songs for the group

[@vinniedixon1140]

Ice Cube went hard on this, spitting out some venom. Cube is one of my absolute favourite rappers as he could really hit hard, especially on his early albums with my favourite being The Predator from 1992 which topped the Billboard, Hip Hop and R&B charts all at the same time. He got screwed when in N.W.A. and he let them know about it good and proper with this diss track. One thing about this Ice Cube, he doesn't melt LOL

[@ryufight7987]

[@Mikes5276]

Hell Yeah, one of the greatest siss tracks of all time!

[@jrobertlysaght]

I remember thinking what made this even more brutal was that this was on his SECOND album. He kept his cool on the first one, but then they should have left him alone, but instead NWA dissed him on their first album without him. NWA weren't just the subject of this diss track, but they asked for it, when they should have just kept thier mouths shut.

All of those snippets of songs in the intro were songs he wrote and performed on with NWA. It was his way of listing the receipts of how much of NWA's success was reliant on him. Also, you could make a case that Ice Cube's No Vaseline was the greatest diss record in Rap History.
