The 14-track set, executed by Ice Cube and executive-produced Tony Draper, follows last year\u2019s critically acclaimed, chart-topping Man Down, and reaffirms Cube\u2019s place as one of hip-hop\u2019s most fearless truth-tellers and cultural commentators.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Man Up pairs unflinching lyricism with Cube\u2019s signature West Coast grit to confront misconceptions and demand accountability\u2014from institutions, communities, and ourselves.
