Since the dawn of rap, music lovers have debated the most skilled and beloved emcees. If you had to chose, who would make up rap's Mount Rushmore? Last year, Rap Caviar crowned Drake, Kendrick Lamar, Nicki Minaj, and J. Cole the frontrunners of the 2010s. Now, West Coast legends Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, E-40, and Too $hort have come together for their own '90s version of the monument with their super group Mount Westmore.

“You got the four pillars of West Coast hip-hop," Ice Cube said in a video. "We are down with Gala Music. We are coming out with that Mount Westmore BAD MFs album. There is going to be new music, new experiences, shows, everything that the Westmore got, baby, you gonna get it. Fuck with us June 7."

Today, the four musicians released their first album as a group titled BAD MFs on Gala Music in the Metaverse. You can access the album right now via NFTs. How does that work? Honestly, no idea (Ice Cube doesn't sound too sure either). If you're in the dark about this whole blockchain music thing, too, you can at least check out the trailer for the experience below.
