Ice Cube has responded to Gene Simmons' objection of N.W.A joining the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame.

The KISS member clearly has the itch against Compton's most notorious being immortalised, tweeting "let me know when Jimi Hendrix gets into the Hip Hop Hall Of Fame". 

Cube responded by tweeting, "Who stole the soul? Chuck Berry, Little Richard and Chubby Checkers help invent Rock n Roll. We invent it. Y'all reprint it,". And then came the hammer-blow (read below)

 

Not done with the hatin', Simmons responded by tweeting "Cube - I stand by my words. Respect NWA, but when Led Zep gets into Rap Hall of Fame, I will agree with your point." Get over it lads.
