I was brought up listening to these guys, but who was better?
They've both gone down the film/tv route these days but not so long ago they were releasing critically acclaimed hip-hop albums.
Ice T's "Original Gangster" is a masterclass in big beats, bravado rhyme and a rarity in hip-hop, humour.
On the other hand Ice Cube's "Death Certificate" was highly controversial, extremely racist, and as angry a record as you'll ever hear.
Both are brilliant.
