Rap Song About rights 1992

I can't find a song about the LA riots, it came out in 92 right after, lost my old mix tape it used to be on. The song had about 8 rappers on it. I Don't even know the title but Cube, B-Real, Grand Puba were on the song, but Cube's part was so tight I still remember his lyrics.

The song begins with a rasta chick rapping:
We got people living underground and in shanty town
While the rest of us turn our face and frown
America is like living in a war zone
We are people calling a refrigerator box a home


Ice Cube's part:
Damn another with n@@@a with a mic
You tried to pitch a curve, but I can hit a strike
You say that you hate Ice Cube cause I got a big mouth
And I don't shop at Ralphs
Rather spend my money at the market
Black owned by Mr. and Mrs. Jones
And I ain't in jail for the bad checks
And I hate uncle toms and rednecks

I don't remember Grand Puba or B-Real's lyrics but I remember they had parts on there. Anyone know the title of the song? I tried the internet and Youtube, nothing.
