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
Everybody thinks the grass is greener on the other side. If you talk to most artists, they think they can play something, you know, If I had stayed playing football in high school, if I had been doing basketball... Everybody's got their fantasies and thinks the grass is greener. It's not. It's not.
Ice Cube
Do I gotta go sell me a whole lotta crack for decent shelter and clothes on my back?
Ice Cube
Early in my career, people wanted to hear music about protest, about trying to change things.
Ice Cube
Our records, if you have a dark sense of humor, were funny, but our records weren't about comedy. They were about protests, fantasy, confrontation and all that.
Ice Cube
I'm not actually from Compton - I'm from South Central Los Angeles, and my father still lives in the same house I grew up in, so I'm there all the time.
Ice Cube
I've been around a lot longer than most rappers stay around. So I don't feel like, I haven't made too many career mistakes.
Ice Cube
Nobody I know got killed in South Central LA. Today was a good day.
Ice Cube
I think that my Let's get it done! Let's have fun! Let's make a great movie! attitude helped. I rarely have problems on my movies with egos and attitudes.
