"Down For Whatever" by Ice Cube from Lethal Injection (1993)
Before becoming the most sought after actor for middle of the road family fun films, Ice Cube was an original gangsta. From his beginnings with N.W.A through to his acclaimed solo career, Cube was always seen as a dangerous emcee. However, no matter how bad Cube tries to be in his tale of car theft and skinhead killings, Mike Judge's Office Space always comes to mind when this song comes on. The movie's score featured an assortment of hardcore '90s rap, hilariously juxtaposing the depiction of office life mundanities. While the Friday movies pushed Cube close to the edge of not being taken seriously, Office Space launched him right off. Goodbye "Fuck Dying," hello Are We There Yet?
