With only one day left to promote Straight Outta Compton before it hits theaters, Ice Cube has been making the rounds to any audience who might park their butt(s) in a cinema to watch the movie. That includes ESPN. So with that in mind, he sat down alongside his son O'Shea Jackson Jr. (who plays his dad in the flick) to give his opinion on a string of athlete-rappers, including (*deep breath*): Kobe Bryant, Iman Shumpert, Clint Dempsey, John Cena, Deion Sanders, Serena Williams, Damian Lillard, and Super Bowl Shuffle-era Jim McMahon.

Some disappointed him, while others disappointed him slightly less.

Click the video above (just two minutes of your time) to see what he had to say about each.
