More quotes by Ice Cube
I think rap music is the sole reason for a lot of black acceptance in pop culture because the music is very popular, it gets our image out in other ways than in movies.
Ice Cube
The real is always presented. That hardcore record or movie is not needed in the hood, because it's already there. You can see it with your own eyes.
Ice Cube
Usually people who attack the rap are people who aren't even fans.
Ice Cube
Some people have a taboo about doing advertising in the States. You know, where they kind of make their bread and butter. But to me, that's crazy.
Ice Cube
I'm just an entertainer, man. I don't like to pigeonhole myself to anything. I love to do it all.
Ice Cube
I was trying to be the best rapper in the world. I wasn't thinking about acting.
Ice Cube
The devil made you a slave. Your waitin' for the devil to come from the ground. Take a look around. Just look at the cross that the priest is holdin'. A beast, in sheep's clothin'. You are the prince of darkness. Hell born, demonic.
Ice Cube
Twerking has to end. Not for the ones that look good doing it, but for all the ones that you feel, 'You don't have enough to twerk back there. Your twerkin' look like jerkin.'
Ice Cube
The '80s was brand new. It was AIDS. It was gangbanging. It was starting to become big dope-dealing, and crack was starting to flood the neighborhoods. And then you had hip hop, which was something new, other than what we were doing, which was sports, playing football, basketball, baseball. And I was excited.
Ice Cube
I was a very interested arts student, I was always into that part of school and when I got into high school I went into architectural drafting. It gave me an understanding of how to build things and it’s really helped me put things in perspective. With my music and my movies, to me it’s all art.
Ice Cube
We're in this entertainment business really to give the audience what they want.
Ice Cube
There's rumors in the Twittersphere. If I find out that any of my officer is giving out drug and alcohol I send their ass to prison with a snorkel duct-taped to their mouth and me s***ing down that Snorkel
Ice Cube
What I learned from architectural drafting is that everything has to have a plan to work. You just can't wing it. I can't get all the materials I need for a house and just start building. Whether it's a career, family, life - you have to plan it out.
Ice Cube
We should love the fact that we're not just getting one point of view. That we have this diversity in entertainment, and people are not scared to be themselves, and people are not scared to make people uncomfortable, and that's all part of it. That's all part of being free.
Ice Cube
When I was six, God was a white man with a big beard riding on a white cloud. That's the image television pumps.
Ice Cube
Music has done a lot to enhance the emotions of sports. It's played in arenas. Whenever there is footage cut together they're always using music. And it goes together, you know.
Ice Cube
I figured, when I make a movie, especially earlier in my career, one thing I was going to make sure was that the movie doesn't cost a lot and that it has potential to make a lot of money. That's how you get respect in Hollywood.
Ice Cube
Once you figure out what your own thing is it's all about trying to develop shows, programs that can, I guess, enhance what you already have and what you can add to Hollywood.
Ice Cube
My movies work because not many people in Hollywood are like me.
Ice Cube
I grew up in the seventies and disco was big. That influenced me the most.
