I'm actually quite surprised that Ice Cube's It Was a Good Day has not already graced these pages. You may not know it to look at me, but this is an old favorite of mine. While Cube and I may live very different lifestyles, I for example don't play bones and put girl's butts to sleep very often; I have had my grub on without pigging out and I've had my share of pretty good days — like just this last Tuesday when I spotted both Philip Seymour Hoffman and Jim Jarmusch in the same day.
This was the most popular single of his solo career, a career been that's strangely veering towards Cuba Gooding Jr. style family comedies for awhile now. The relaxing samples come courtesy of The Isley Brothers' 1977 slow jam Footsteps in the Dark and “Come on Sexy Mama” by The Moments.
But what do you think?
