W.C. is from the same neighborhood and grew up with Ice Cube. After the break up of Low Profile, Ice Cube would later name Dub's new group, WC And The Maad Circle. The M.A.A.D. Circle consisted of W.C., Crazy Toones, Big Gee, and an unknown rapper from Compton named Coolio. Coolio left the group after the first album, to persue a solo career.
