NWA have confirmed that they won't play live at this year's Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame induction.

The group's Ice Cube told The New York Times that there is a "lack of support" from organisers to see them play live.

The seminal hip-hoppers - who feature Dr. Dre - will still appear on the night to be inducted at the event, which is taking place tonight (April 8).

He said: "I guess we really didn't feel like we were supported enough to do the best show we could put on." 

When asked if it is due to a lack of support from organisers, he said: "Pretty much, yeah. We wanted to do it on a whole other level, and that just couldn't happen.

"But we're totally honoured, humbled and appreciative to the Hall for even just considering us, inducting us and inviting us... I believe everybody's going to be there. As it stands now."
