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.

More quotes by Ice T
You can't just sing the song and live another life.
Ice T
I'm very much against the anonymity of bloggers and social media. I just hate it and I think it's really cowardly.
Ice T
The right to bear arms is because it's the last form of defense against tyranny.
Ice T
The music led to the acting. But movies aren't something you can just will yourself into. Someone has to choose you, and you have to be quite fortunate to be chosen.
Ice T
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.
Ice T
Ultimately I am happy that everybody is embracing hip hop and the sounds from the streets.
Ice T
Ice-T in the music has done some outrageous things.
Ice T
As an actor, you can do what you want with your role. That's why they hire you to take the role and make it real.
Ice T
Well, I am very happy that I was able to play a part in bringing music from the streets onto the radio and into modern culture, I worked very hard and always believed in the sounds I was creating.
Ice T
Anybody who speeds thinks they can outsmart the cops.
Ice T
With acting, you have to take it seriously because the other actors are putting in a lot of effort - and if you say, 'I'm just bullshitting here', it's like dissing 'em.
Ice T
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.
Ice T
...As an artist, you need the naysayers and the nonbelievers to add fuel to your creative fire.
Ice T
If I'm going to be a jazz player, I need to understand Miles Davis.
Ice T
I don't rhyme for the sake of riddlin'. If I say it, I gotta be able to back it up.
Ice T
If you believe that I'm a cop killer, you believe David Bowie is an astronaut.
Ice T
It's like a paradox. For one side, being popularized rap got better and the other side of it got worse. It's very pop and it's very different now. When you make it as pop and as soft as it is, it lacks its integrity. It lacks its accountability. It lacks a lot of other things that came from that dangerous time in hip hop.
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
I've got a phone, answer machine, TV set, computer, hand grenade - everything you need to run a business in Los Angeles.
Ice T
I have to take what I say and make it heavy, so every single bar means something. And there's no riddles in my rhymes. Every single word means something.
Ice T
