This one pains me since I'll take Dre's best stuff over Cube's, but Dre's discography is just too light to give him the edge over Ice.

But the best stuff is so good and has Snoop featured prominently.

Exactly. Dre is more of a producer. He's good on the mic but prefers to drop the beats. Therefore it's cube.
 
This one is tough. If I had to go with pure rap only resume, I'd take Cube. But Dre, is also a great rapper, but also had a bunch of influence on the genre through his beats and producing. I'm going with Dre because I think he had more influence in general.

Very defensible position. Dre also gave the world Snoop and Eminem, I don't know that Ice Cube has had any discoveries nearly as significant as those two (actually hard to find anyone who can match those two proteges).

This is shaping up to be a hard fought battle where the Army of Alts might have to enter the fray.
 
Dre sucks on the mic and has never even written his own stuff. As a rapper, I've Cube destroys him.

I think Dre is the biggest rorschach test in the field rather easily. Both of these posts are completely valid. It's just about what you are looking for.
