Yeah, "Wicked" is fantastic. It's actually a pretty good summation of everything I love about that album. Basically the whole thing sounds like society on the verge of collapse. The music is muscular, layered and sounds like a world of dying factories and barbed wire. Ice Cube's rapping is more solid and in your face than on any of his other albums. The whole thing is just amazing and amazingly bleak. "When Will They Shoot?" and "Now I Gotta Wet 'Cha" are highlights too.
