Westside Connection has been played on NTS shows including The Bennett Show, with Hoo Bangin' (Clean) first played on 11 June 2014.

Westside Connection was an American hip-hop supergroup formed by Ice Cube, Mack 10, and WC. The group's debut album, Bow Down, reached the number two position on the Billboard 200 in 1996 and was certified platinum that same year.

Westside Connection began performing together in 1995, appearing on Mack 10's self-titled debut album, Mack 10, on the track "Westside Slaughterhouse". A few months later, the group reunited on WC's album, Curb Servin', with the song "West Up!". Around this time, they began working on their debut album, Bow Down, which was released on October 22, 1996.

Individually, Mack 10, WC, and Ice Cube continued to work on solo projects between group albums. As Westside Connection, they contributed several tracks to film soundtracks and compilations, including "Bangin'" (from West Coast Bad Boyz II), "Let It Reign" (from Thicker than Water), and "It's the Holidaze" (from Friday After Next).

On December 9, 2003, the group released their second album, Terrorist Threats, led by the single "Gangsta Nation", produced by Fredwreck and featuring Nate Dogg.

Mack 10 left the group in 2005 following a dispute with Ice Cube, leading to Westside Connection's disbandment. Despite the breakup, Ice Cube and WC continued collaborating, frequently appearing on each other's albums.

In 2008, HipHopDX reported that Ice Cube and WC were considering reviving the Westside Connection project, with The Game proposed as Mack 10's replacement. This plan followed The Game's appearance with WC on Ice Cube's album Raw Footage that same year. However, the rumored revival never materialized.

In a 2020 interview with VladTV, Mack 10 reflected that any reunion without his involvement would still require compensation, as he owns the trademark on the group's name. This ownership stems from their second album being released through his record label.

In 2023, Ice Cube dismissed the possibility of a reunion, citing unresolved issues with Mack 10. He described their conflict as "a violation that can't be overlooked."
