Ice T blasts modern hip-hop

[LezJepzin]

Ice T doesn't want to make hip-hop music any more.

The 56-year-old musician is releasing a new rock album with his thrash metal band Body Count and says this is the kind of music he prefers now as hip hop has lost its way.

He said: ''Hip-hop's gone in a different direction - it's club music, no content, just, 'I got money, cars, girls'.

''Underground hip-hop's still prolific, but the stuff on the radio sucks.

''Ice T has always been about hardcore, aggressive music. With Body Count, it's art, it's over the top, it's hypersexual.

''I roll with the people who get it. The people who don't, I throw them a Barry Manilow album.''

And Ice also mocked hip-hop fans who ''act tough'' but have no idea what it is really like in the worlds they enjoy hearing about.

Discussing his track 'Wanna Be A Gangsta', he told NME magazine: [It's critical of] suburban kids listening to rap and acting tough behind their keyboards.

''If they touch down on those streets, they're gonna get their ass sewn up.''

Art has no age limit, it can last longer than you. Calling him flabby and sick is pointless.

He's not lying.

So what if someone in their early 20's said the something he said about modern hip-hop? You couldn't call them because their not old.

Turn up!

For those who don't listen to his pod cast (dope pod cast BTW, just Ice talking bout shyt on his mind), a few weeks/months back he dropped some leaks from the new body count album...one of them was an update on his classic 99 problems and they reinterpret the Rick Rubin beat, pretty dope:



Whole album is dope too.
