Why did Ice Cube write solo stuff for Easy-E anyway? I thought after the dissolution of NWA they were strict rivals?
Dunno why, but

Eazy-E - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Several members of N.W.A wrote lyrics for Eazy-Duz-It: Ice Cube, The D.O.C., and MC Ren.

ODB and Eazy-E's situation isn't too different imo. Both ODB and Eazy-E had charisma coming out of their ears and were definitely unique, but not so good or skilled at rapping, so crew members helped them out and wrote some of their lyrics. Which is why I wouldn't put it past Jay-Z to have someone write for him.

The only track I've heard from the 2nd album is the Neptunes one mate.
