You're just a toy punk to mess with that junk
You want some real dope, come look in my trunk
The dope I'm sellin' is life, a hundred per cent legit
So get real, fool, and try some real hit.
Ice T
I'm Your Pusher
You better think it out
We should be able to say anything
Our lungs were meant to shout.
Say what you feel, yell out what's real
Even though it may not bring mass appeal
Your opinion is yours, mine is mine
If you don't like what I'm sayin' fine.
Ice T
Freedom of Speech
When the President (of the United States) mentions your name in anger, you KNOW the sh*t has hit the fan!
Ice T
On the controversy created by "Cop Killer"
Los Angeles is a microcosm of the United States. If L.A. falls, the country falls.
Ice T
Commenting on the 1992 Los Angeles riots
Belzer's the best. He's Jewish and I'm Black, so the Klan's after both of us. Belzer is a G, an old-school cat who knows the game. He's very controversial in his comedy, and me in my music. So I think we just naturally clicked"
Ice T
On his "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" (1999) co-star, Richard Belzer
I can tell you how to become a millionaire in as much time as it takes a woman to have a baby. One catch: the nine-month plan ends in a funeral.
Ice T
I bring a lot of shit to the show. I'm the only person on the show probably anybody under 20 knows who they are. I bring black people and ethnic people. I bring an edge to the show, because at any moment I might smack the shit out of somebody. When I got on the show, it was in the 40s. Now it's top 10. So I brought something.
Ice T
On his contribution to "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" (1999)
I started off rapping for people just like myself, people who were in awe of wealth and flash. It was a conversation between me and them. But now most of those who buy my records are listening in on others' conversation. They are the aural equivalent of voyeurs, thrilled at this crazy world that has nothing to do with their experience.
Ice T
Crime is an equal-opportunity employer. It never discriminates. Anybody can enter the field. You don't need a G.E.D. You don't have to be any special color. You don't need white people to like you. You're self-employed. As a result, criminals are very independent people.
Ice T
The Ice Opinion
Passion makes the world to round. Love just makes it a safer place.
Ice T
The Ice Opinion
When they call you articulate, that's another way of saying "He talks good for a black guy".
Ice T
AIDS is such a scary thing and it's also the kind of thing that you think won't happen to you. It can happen to you and it's deadly serious.
Ice T
Any New York group can come to L.A. and sell out every show, but an L.A. group who goes to New York might not do the same because the audience hasn't been introduced to the group.
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
As long as I'm around the cats in the hip hop scene, they'll throw me a track and I'll write a rap over it.
Ice T
Everything we do helps the new artists in the long run.
Ice T
I ain't got no beef with east coast, I think it's just being hyped up.
Ice T
I don't have to put out another rap record. I can do it at my casual pace.
Ice T
I have to grow with my audience.
Ice T
I mean rappin' to me is easy, it's something you can do over a week.
Ice T
I want to be able to say that a rap career could be ten albums.
Ice T
I'll never sell 14 million like Hammer, I just wanna do a good Ice-T show.
Ice T
I'm a big fan of all styles, even Biggie and Wu-Tang, but I gotta do my thing.
Ice T
I'm at a point where I don't have to wait for the income from the record to survive, so I'm in a comfortable zone, but I'll make rap records as long as I feel I have something to rap about.
Ice T
I'm competitive in that I would like to outsell my last record.
Ice T
I'm on the front line and I am a rapper.
Ice T
I've never been competitive with anybody but myself.
Ice T
I've never read for a movie, I've always been given them.
Ice T
If it sells, it sells. If it doesn't sell, I'll go make a movie.
Ice T
If you're really a rapper, you can't stop rapping.
Ice T
Los Angeles is a microcosm of the United States. If L.A. falls, the country falls.
Ice T
Oh man, nobody is as tough as Mr T. Ice T is pretty tough though as well.
Ice T
So from an actor's perspective, you really have no idea how you're acting.
Ice T
So you don't have to take us too seriously; I mean, we're already intimidating enough on stage.
Ice T
The best way to listen to the album is to put it on, get some Moet, lay back with your boys, and kick it.
Ice T
The next day, I got a phone call from him and he told me to come and read for a movie called New Jack City. So I went over there and they told me I was gonna wear dreads and play a cop.
Ice T
Ultimately I am happy that everybody is embracing hip hop and the sounds from the streets.
Ice T
We have groups that do that, but I can't rap with the mentality of an 18 year old when I'm in my 30's.
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
When I first got into the rap game, I had an early dream of unifying rappers.
Ice T
You can't come out on a record dissing the system and be on a label that's connected to the system.
Ice T
You have to come in on a professional level to make it, otherwise you just can't get into rap.
Ice T
