  • Quotes from Ice Cube

    1. "We come from the days when rap used to agitate the mainstream. Now it's more buddy-buddy. That doesn't sit well with me. So what we need is [a bit more] street politics, bringing up issues, agitating you a little bit. And nothing can agitate you more now than a terrorist threat." — Ice Cube on rap
    2. "“We wanted to be true to what a barbershop is, so every headline we could grab between the first 'Barbershop' and the second was in there." — Ice Cube on Barbershop 2
    3. "Snoop is the Phil Jackson of youth football coaches. He ain't going to accept nothing but a winner." — Ice Cube on Snoop
    4. "What I wanted people to recognize is that racism is in all of us, in layers. Some in more layers than others. It's not just the Klan guy and the black-fist guy, and it's about peeling away those layers." — Ice Cube on racism
