Ice Cube
The creative process of making a movie really turned me on. I'd started getting behind the scenes with a camcorder and VHS tape when making music videos.
Ice Cube
I'm not the type of actor who is trying to do a whole bunch of different shit, you know what I mean?
Ice Cube
It never gets old. Working with somebody like Kevin Hart is rejuvenating in a lot of ways. He's such a pro. He's so good.

To me, in a perfect world, you have the flavor and the magic of movies like 48 Hours, Lethal Weapon and Bad Boys.
Ice Cube
It's always been jewelry, clothes, appearance. Those are things that compete with the car. But the car is the ultimate. Get that car right and it doesn't matter what you got on or what you wear once you step out of that car.
Ice Cube
There's a lot of talent in South Central L.A., in Compton and Long Beach and Watts, and the city north of Pico pretty much sits back and waits for that talent to emerge and then steps in.
Ice Cube
Sports without music is just a game. Music makes it entertaining.
Ice Cube
If you really look at my lyrics, nobody's exempt. Nobody's exempt from observation, criticism or what I think is correction.

Ice Cube
For me rappers and dancers are poets and artists and often times the most interesting performances are given by them.

I'm trying to cut down a little on eating, on sodium, keep my blood pressure down, which is tough. Because I love food! I do, but it's unfair how everything that's bad for you tastes so good, and all the good stuff, veggies and green things, doesn't match up.
