You're right.

I just think Ice Cube deserves more credit as a separate act.

It seems like Dr. Dre for instance gets more acknowledgement in general than Ice Cube as separate acts. I think he can get more acknowledgement as a songwriter outside of NWA. He has written for other rappers outside of NWA as a group as well as himself. I think he is a great writer.

I guess you are right about Gangstarr. I actually have heard rappers cite his importance to hip hop but the industry itself doesn't as much
