Naughty by nature started the evening off by doing what they do best..which is drop classics...they ran through all of their catalogue of hits from everything is gonna be alright throught to craziest!!!Not forgetting the staples O.P.P and Hip Hop Hurray!!
As an aside even though they didn't need to..going into classics from the likes of DMX, Redman, Slick Rick, Tupac, Gangstarr and KRS-One to name a few was well and truly received by a grateful crowd..thank you NBN!!
As for Ice cube and a major surprise in the appearance of WC, Cube almost made me lose my mind when he started out with Straight outta Compton, after which the hits continued to flow with the likes of Natural born killas, Jack in the box, put your back into it, You know how we do it, check yo self, Bop Gun, Bow down, today was a good day and I rep that west amongst many others rocking a very appreciative crowd.
To those who say O'shea Jackson lost it...nah.,...he's still one very angry fella 20 yrs on and he can still cause havoc to the right crowd. A special mention to a lot of the crowd who stayed until he finished his set at about 11.35pm (his comments regarding the curfew were classic even though expected!!).
A special shout out to WC for supporting ice cube admirably and performing a cut off of his album (hood with me although I would have preferred Hustler off of the Revenge of the barracuda album) and Cube brought his son Doughboy out to perform as well.
As Treach summed it up...this ain't no new skool S--- this is OLD SKOOL!! Believe that people, legends of hip hop..and I for one am grateful for being there...thanks lads for gracing us with your presence!!
