I'm a big fan of all styles, even Biggie and Wu-Tang, but I gotta do my thing.

Rap music came along and saved my life. I started to tell the stories of the streets and that was my way out.

When you hit the wall, it's how fast you come back.

I like crime movies where the crime is so incredible that, attractive as it seems, you don't wanna do it because it's just too dangerous.
Ice T
Image
I'm competitive in that I would like to outsell my last record.

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.

You can't just sing the song and live another life.

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.

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.

I think what's happenin' is that, with the overflow of music, it's been diluted. There was a time when people would go search out underground records. Now, underground means free, and people don't really care for it. So now artists tend to go more pop and look for the radio.

Anybody who speeds thinks they can outsmart the cops.

There is no such thing as a normal family so don't trip off it, just deal with it.

The trick with hip-hop-hip-hop is a sport. The only music that's really, really close to a sport. It starts off, My DJ's better than yours. I can out-rap you, I can out-dance you, my graffiti piece is better than you. It's very competitive.

I'm just disillusioned with the hip-hop sound right now. It's too materialistic. You know, I'm the kind of guy ... I can't do that. If you track my movement, you'll never see a picture of me with any girl that wasn't mine, or my own car. My jewelry, my clothes. What kind of gangsta rapper has a stylist? A stylist?!

I think that a rap aficionado, the hardcore rap fan, will always go away from pop, in the same way a hardcore jazz fan will never think Kenny G is really a jazz artist. You gotta kind of know there's always going to be that purist who's going to be like if it ain't beats and rhymes, if there ain't a DJ, then that ain't Hip Hop.

When I recorded my first album, my ego didn't let me believe that what I was gonna say on the mic, anyone would really care about. But then when I found out that they did, I started to take it more seriously.

I don't rhyme for the sake of riddlin'. If I say it, I gotta be able to back it up.

Los Angeles is a microcosm of the United States. If L.A. falls, the country falls.

I was doing the wrong thing, at the time I thought I was doing the right thing. It's like if you're dealing with somebody who is high on drugs, they can look back at it and say, Wow, I was destroying myself. But during the period, they think they're doing the right thing. You just have to let the smoke clear so you can see the whole picture.

I'm on the front line and I am a rapper.
