I have no hatred for cops. I have hatred for racists and brutal people, but not necessarily the cops. The cops are just doing what they're told to do.

More quotes by Ice T
Half the rhymes you write, you're saying that you're better than the other MC. That's how we keep the craft sharp.
Ice T
You know, I say in my lyrics, Every word I write will be analyzed by somebody white. It's just that I know that this sh*t is just not gonna fall on deaf ears.
Ice T
It's not about being mad at everything. It's about being really mad at the right things.
Ice T
I write rhymes with addition and algebra, mental geometry.
Ice T
I think when people say 'real hip-hop,' they want it more buried in the streets. They want it more connected to the streets and the grime and the roughness of the streets. They don't want the fluff.
Ice T
I just don't believe that there's any way that you're ever gonna get one peace, because everybody has different ways of seeing life.

Ice T
I look at my career and I feel I have the potential to maybe mature into a Samuel Jackson-type older cat, and people will still respect me and say 'Yo, Ice-T was wild', into my old age. And why not? I don't necessarily think I'll be rapping in 10 years.
Ice T
A lot of people play single to work some angle. I'm always about keeping it real. If that's how I'm living, that's how I'm living.
Ice T
I'm like a monkey. You don't let go of one branch until you get a hold of the other.
Ice T
I was born in Newark, New Jersey, and grew up in Summit, an upscale town in north Jersey. There was this tiny area of Summit where most of the black families lived. My parents and I lived in a duplex house on Williams Street.
Ice T
A lot of times people would offer me movies and, because I'm a car freak, I'd look in a magazine and say, 'How much is this car? If you give me this car I'll show up and do the movie' I call 'em 'sports car flicks'.
Ice T
You have the core hip-hop, which would just be beats and breaks, more something like what you hear with DJ Premier. Then you get into the more highly produced hip-hop, which is something like what DJ Khaled does. But at some point, it starts to get kind of pop.
Ice T
If I'm going to be a jazz player, I need to understand Miles Davis.
Ice T
Winners have to absorb losses.
Ice T
Hollywood has its own way of telling stories. I was just telling stories that I was familiar with. And it's what I want to do in the future: I want to take my audio cinema and put it on the screen.
