    Ice Cube left the rap group N.W.A in 1989 due to financial and creative disputes, particularly with Eazy-E and their manager Jerry Heller. Ice Cube felt he was unfairly compensated for his work writing lyrics and challenged the authenticity of the other members' gangster personas.

    Ice Cube's departure from N.W.

    A (Niggaz Wit Attitudes) in 1989 sparked a notable


    conflict within the group. The beef primarily stemmed from financial disagreements
    and creative differences between Ice Cube and the other members, particularly Eazy-
    E and Jerry Heller, the group's manager. Ice Cube accused the group of unfair
    compensation and challenged the authenticity of their gangster personas. He felt he
    wasn't receiving his fair share of profits from their work, particularly in writing
    lyrics. This discord led to diss tracks exchanged between Ice Cube and N.W.A,
    including Cube's scathing solo track "No Vaseline," which targeted his former
    bandmates and Heller. The feud continued for years, with both parties taking shots
    at each other through music and interviews.
