I never hear Ice Cube cited as the driving force behind the band by the media.
Eazy E didn't write a single song, hell Ice Cube had a good hand in Eazy's best solo album, and I've never heard anyone say "Eazy E was the brains behind NWA" from a credible source. Ice Cube is always cited, seeing as he wrote most of the songs, and was easily the most prominent rapper on what is easily their best album. He literally gets most of the credit for Straight Outta Compton, which if anything, is one of the most overrated albums of the 1990s. I love the album, but I've heard much better. I think I like Ice Cube's solo work better.
