Ice Cube Claims He Was Banned From ‘The View’ And ‘Oprah’​

Tucker Carlson had a blunt question for Ice Cube. Why would you risk talking to me, knowing that it wouldn’t be popular with the liberal left?

“Because I think it’s silly not to talk to people,” Ice Cube said. “Whether we agree or not has nothing to do with it … Let’s talk about it. Let’s debate.”

The two controversial stars were talking in the wake of a drive-through Ice Cube’s old South Central neighborhood, wherein Ice Cube pointed out highlights to a clearly enthralled Carlson.

Ice Cube (real name: O’Shea Jackson) said that he has been prevented in the past from appearing in certain forums because of his views. He claimed that The View and Oprah wouldn’t have him on during the promotional period for his massive hit film Barbershop and while producing a show called Black. White. He said each show’s entire cast was invited on the Oprah show on two separate occasions, but he was not invited.



Ice Cube also talked about his politics. In 2020, the Biden and Trump campaigns contacted him about his “The Contract with Black America” initiative. The Biden team, he said, paid lip service and said they’d talk after the election. The Trump campaign asked, “Do you mind talking to us about it?” which the rapper did.

Carlson asked, “Do you think that crossed the line?”

“I think some people didn’t like that, but I think it’s idiotic. Enemies meet,” he said. “We’ve just got to talk. That’s the only way we’re going to work this out. I know that when the talkin’ stops, the fighting starts.”

Cube’s age is showing in his inability to read the room in relation to the times. He is right, you SHOULD be able to go and talk to whoever you want when you want to. Rappers used to go on the O’Reilly Factor for years and before that they were on Geraldo and Phil Donahue even though those shows were very much leaning against them and the culture.

Honestly, this segregation of ideologies didn’t start until the Bush era of politics and I think it’s made everyone worse for it. Now all we have are echo chambers of people who all believe the exact same things point by point. This has to be the easiest time to ever be a politician.

is Cube giving Tucker any pushback on any of his views regarding black people, BLM protests, affirmative action etc? No? then he should stfu about "even enemies gotta meet". He's not debating Tucker Carlson on anything, they're just jacking each other off on anti-vax and anti-democrat nonesense. He's just cappin

what is Oprah doing? I thought she was retired.

edit: he said he was banned in the past? What s this thread for? Again, Tucker is just trying to get his media company off the ground. Cube going on there is just giving him the traffic he needs to plead his case to get money for his shyt smh. Cube will probably pick up on what’s happening eventually. It may be too late though.

This ain't that though.

Rappers would go on those shows and hold their own against those people. Question them, in some cases out right disrespect them.

Cube did NONE of that. He didn't press Tucker Carlson on anything. Which is funny because his whole excuse for going on there in the first place is "we should meet with people we don't agree with"....then he proceeds to agree with everything Tucker says.

Clown shyt.

The evidence pointed to Cube being on this time during the "Platinum Plan" era.
Smilies, jokes, insults, questioning family background and ALL the other deflections are gone now. And even the ones who were delusional before, see things for what they really are.

Alot of hate for ice cube because he's talking back against the gatekeepers in the industry and helping black folks but no smoke for the corporate entites that are black listing him... let me guess how this plays out years later one of these folks are gonna rat on the machine and say cube was right and then alot of the people here are gonna be copping pleas because they didnt believe ice cube...

 

[King Poetic]

I totally agree with Cube on the Oprah shyt

When he created that white and black show and Oprah didn’t have him on but other guest and u had 50 and others say Oprah don’t like rappers

And week later she runs and do photo shots with JayZ and say oh oh yeah I have nothing against rappers

It's this for me. You say you want to debate and talk with everyone, ok cool. What about holding them accountable for their bullshyt? Or do you just go on there to get a bigger audience and rag on the "libs" along with them?
