Ice Cube is really getting his blog on lately, embracing the digital world as he gears up for his next solo album, I Am The West. Last week, he stirred up the pot by explained the title of his new album, saying no one can challenge his claim to being "the West."

Each new blog Cube writes is garnering a lot of comments, and the veteran rapper is reading and answering.

In his latest blog, he chose to answer the long-discussed question as to why the OGs in hip-hop don't work with the new talent.

Cube says he's not here to make anybody famous.

"What's up with these local MC's in L.A. who keep disrespecting me? They're just mad cause I don't f**** with they wack-ass. They ain't on my level, why should I waste my time," Cube wrote. "I don't even remember ever meeting these clowns or even being in the same room with any of 'em. They can't make a name for themselves, so they need help from the OGs. I refuse the throw'em a life line.

"F*** 'em. It ain't my job to make nobody famous. And for the record, I ain't scared of no n****. Especially, no rappers ...seriously people," he continued.

Cube also discussed fans' hopes of him and Mack 10 reconciling. While he didn't rule it out, it doesn't sound too promising.

"Me and Mack 10 together again? I never say never, but he has the kiss the ring first," he said.

The rapper also details his week in the new blog entry, so head to IceCube.com for more.

Damn, Cube is right about NOT having to help anybody, BUT you would think he would want to help since he is one of the OG's in the game and he knows how hard it is for the West to get love. At the end of the day its his decision. Lastly, just because a rapper isnt famous doesnt mean they are wack...

^^put yourself in his position...would you wanna help some loud mouth, mediocre, respect lacking cats?
I dont know who he's talking about. If his comments were directed to someone specifically then ok, but I took it as a general statement across the board. At least it came off that way to ME. Of course if anyone disrespected me I wouldnt care to help either. But like I said I dont know what happened..

i remember in a old interview he spoke on all the artist that he tried to help like kausion, and short khop amongst a few others and how it was all a waste of time, that the only artist he tried helping out and actually went out and did things without him was mack 10...

Barely anybody in the west is worth checking out anyway. I look forward to some of the old dudes along with Mitchy. That's about it. Get on your grind like NWA did and if it happens, it happens
