Better known as Ice Cube!
How you doin'?
How you doin'?
Good to see you!
Well known that the Crips and the Bloods are allegedly coming together
Yeah
You've been a lot in the media lately
All the rappers we'd mentioned earlier
Cube
That um
You know?
You have been labelled a lot of things
What do you say to the people with the causal being anti-Semitic
(Fuck 'em!)
Uh, anti-Korean
(fuck 'em!)
And basically
A perpetrator of violence because of your lyrics?
It's probably the reason why they
Say that it's because some of the lyrics were
Uh
You've referred to women as bitches and hoes, and all that
I wanna talk a little bit about that, too
Because we saw the parents' discussion about this last time and
(yeah!)
So and brothers, um folks walkin' around
Totin' guns, um
All that kinda stuff
Do you think that sometimes those images and those lyrics
Help white folks justify their continual racism against us
Or continue racism against us?
(Nah!)
I-I speakin a perspective as uh brothers on
What we need to do is look in the mirror
I-I, I do want the white community to understand our community more
And see what's going on
And see what
What
Uh the things they've done to us in the past
Are still affectin' us now mentally
You know?
And the reason I said it's because
I mean everything I said about, uh
Um you know?
Everything I said on records before the riots, you know?
Uh (ahem!)
Anything you want to know about the riots
Was in the records before the riots! All you had to do was go
To the Ice Cube library and
And
And
Pick a record and it would have told you
You know?
I've given warnings
So in other words
It's almost like a warning or prophecy?
I-I've, I've given
I've given so many warnings on what's going to happen
If we don't get these, uh
These, these things straight in our lives, the clashes then
You know?
Armageddon is-is-is near!
Eh-heh!
This here
These words all about money
