AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted is the debut album by rapper Ice Cube, released in 1990. The album was released after his acrimonious split from his former group N.W.A. The songs on this highly political album deal with the grueling realities of ghetto life, drug addiction, racism, and poverty. Ice Cube attacks the institutions that, directly or indirectly, enabled the oppression of people living in Los Angeles' ghettos.
