September 10, 2021 Ice Cube recalled a situation from his youth in South Central Los Angeles when someone tried to swindle his mother out of $20. These days, Ice Cube is best known to a generation of young people as an actor. The dad from the Are We There Yet? movies, or Calvin Palmer, Jr. from the Barbershop films, or perhaps the cop from the Ride Along movies with Kevin Hart. His younger fans may not be familiar with his early years spent screaming Fu*ck Tha Police as part of N.W.A,the group that helped to popularise gangsta Rap. In a recent interview with In Depth with Graham Bensinger Ice Cube spoke about his early years as a South-Central Los Angeles native. He tells a story where an old classmate of his nearly discovered that he really is The Wrong Ni**a to fu*k Wit! Somebody I knew and went to school with who we knew was heavy on drugs had went around to my house and gave my mother some cockamamie story, so she gave him $20, and I was so mad, Cube explained. You violated me and my family, he went on, because you knew you wasnt ever going to give that $20 back. So, me and friends was going around the corner to kill him, and he wasnt home. Thank God he wasnt home, he said. We were young and we was mad and we had a weapon and it was going to happen. It wouldve been stupid, and I wouldnt be sitting here if it did happen. When asked if he had ever reflected on how differently his life could have turned out had he made the choice to go through with it he replied, Yes, I do. Like I said, Im glad he wasnt there, because nobody should die over $20. Ice Cube recently gave an interview to HNHH talking about his aspirations for his BIG3 basketball league Posted in Read more
