In the end when he says, "Hold on what am I thinking about?" It was him basically snapping out of the fantasy he was thinking about. Because at that time in that area there were no days like the one he's describing. I grew up in Inglewood at the time and I remember when the song came out, it could put you in a trance which was dangerous because you weren't paying attention. Which was never good, you didn't want to get caught slipping.

Public Enemy "Fight the Power" woke up a whole generation. Very impactful era.

@thefrontroom, the “female” sample is actually Ron Isley from the original song, Footsteps in the Dark. It’s been said that N.W.A. Had violent lyrics, but their content was most often them sharing with the listener the horrific things they saw in their neighborhood growing up and how they felt about it. Ice Cube is also a successful screenwriter and executive producer. The Smog is likely the least of the realness escaped in the joy of the lyrics. Most of the lyrics are an atypically good day…almost like a fantasy. That explains the spoken words at the end. He’s daydreaming more or less. ❤

One of the challenges with introducing folks to hip hop is that there are so many nuances to the music from the production/sampling, flows, slang, and even beef and issues outside of the music. Sometimes you have to know back stories with certain artists to catch references in the lyrics and significance.

The story of Cube's name was when he was 13 he used to try to talk to all his older brother's girlfriends. In the neighborhood when people got rid of old refrigerators, they dropped them off at the end of a street not far from him. His brother grabbed him up one day and told him he was going to take him down there and throw him in one of those freezers and by the time anyone found him, he'd be a ice cube. The name stuck and later was solidified by his cold lyrics.

Your dad is wholesome. I wish I could have that with my father.. unfortunately drugs and that other life is still his priority even after becoming a father of children on my own. You tell your dad he’s inspired me to be a better listener… don’t stop what you guys are doing. Regardless of the $$ or exposure.. Can’t wait to see more!

For the record Ice Cube is also an actor, script, writer, director, and social activist he was the lead in movies like “Are we there yet” the “Friday” series and more. The TV actor on Law and Order SVU is Ice T who also is a West Coast rapper and to suggest one of his songs “Colors” is perfect.

footsteps in the dark is a major record in the community. it's one of those songs that sets a shared mood. family, cookouts, fun, summer. it adds to the "good day" mood and feeling of the song.

Was born in 1980 and grew up listening to rap and still do now. My dad bought me my first rap tapes and we always listened to rap together. It’s funny to see you enjoy it with your dad and he enjoys some of the classics. You’re dad seems like a really nice guy. Good vids man👍

This song meant more for me than what you could imagine. I found it playing GTS San Andreas 8 or 9 years old... I was literally addicted to that game for like 3 years, that song meant everything to me when it started. I just get the best car available at that time and go for a ride throughout the map ahahahaha

Your dad is awesome, very open minded to music that typically comes with hatred due to racial stereotypes. I would love to see his reaction to some of Kendrick Lamar's deeper songs like, "How much a dollar cost" , or "Sing about me/dying of thirst". Lots of emotion and deeper thinking imo.

Maybe you can also introduce watching these videos with your dad.... “It Was A Good Day” is a classic Hip Hop video. The imagery... it just goes hand in hand with the lyrics. A lot of the slang that he may not catch audibly, is available to him visually so that some of those lyrics make more sense (for someone from without the culture).

This song was unusual at the time it came out because there was so much turmoil going on in the black community (as there still is) and rappers at the time were only rapping about the negative activities happening in their neighborhoods, so Ice Cube not only having a good day but then choosing to rap about how nothing bad happened to him for just a day was super refreshing to hear at the time and made the song popular

Great reaction! I was born in the very early 90s and these songs played in the background of my life. So refreshing to get a fresh perspective on songs I wish I could listen to for the first time again. The point of the song I've always felt is that nothing spectacular or out of the ordinary is happening, so a 'normal day' would be a good day for him. Also, remember that with everything that was happening at the time, African Americans were painted as violent, with thoughts like 'oh there they go again taking advantage of the situation with violence and looting etc.' So the song points out, from an African American view (particularly someone from the area of the incident) that all they want in a day is the bare minimum to be considered and accepted as human. To have a normal day. They don't want the violence or pain either. A normal day, would be a good day.

Ron Isley is singing on the hook which is also a sample from "Foot steps in the Dark". And when he says "I got call from Kim..." he's referring to his wife. He nolonger says her name when he performs the song. I recently saw him live and he's incredible.
