In honor of the release of Straight Outta Compton let's review one of the lesser celebrated tracks on that album, 8 Ball. Neither Eazy or Dre wrote their own verses on this record (Ice Cube did the lion's share of the work) - truth is, Eazy wasn't a blessed MC - can't imagine how much time they spent just to get these verses "passable". Still, there was something so cool about the whole damn thing.
