Ice T "You know, they say Slick Rick is the King of Stories — I’m Coming For That Throne

[LevelUp]

"Ice-T has announced that he has a new album on the way, The Legend of ICE-T “Crime Stories” Vol 1 & 2, and he says the project will be focused on highlighting his storytelling rhymes.

The project will be a compilation of all his story rhymes from all eight of his albums and will include about six new songs that'll also be story-based.

"You know, they say Slick Rick is the king of stories — I’m coming for that throne," he told AllHipHop. "Wait till you hear this. These are all my story records from ‘6 ’N the Mornin’’ to ‘Midnight’ and all these adventures put into one album. It’s a double vinyl release, it has two vinyls and it’s gonna be like a classic collector’s piece. The reason it’s titled The Legend of ICE-T is because a lot of things people believe about me are legend.”



Ice-T, who recently launched a new iHeartPodcast, Ice-T’s Daily Game, also explained the meaning behind the album's title, and what "legend" really means.

“Legend is part false," he explained. "You know, it’s like the night I got in the squabble in the club and I knocked one dude out, where a legend says it was three dudes. A lot of this stuff that people believe about me are lyrics that aren’t necessarily true, but we’ll let the legend continue."

Ice-T's new album is expected to drop sometime this summer."

I respect Ice T and all, but he's tripping saying he's "coming from that throne"

Slick Rick owns that throne.



with that said, Ice T won with his PAWG. Coco is a trailblazer for PAWGS

[Mr. Negative]

I’ll check this out if he’s got songs like this on there.

"I started small time, but now I'm big tyming. " plus or minus "I got arrested"

How bout a sordid tale like this.



Rick aint the GOAT storyteller, IMO. 2nd/3rd behind Nas and/or Ghostface.

Even Nas and Ghostface would bow down to Slick Rick and admit he's the GOAT storyteller

nobody tells a better story than Slick Rick

Ice has some of Hip Hop's most classic stories in his catalogue, so I would definitely check out whatever he's dropping.

It's dope that he acknowledge Rick. Scarface, G Rap, Chuck D, B.I.G., and Cube are also the GOAT's of storytelling in the culture. Still untouchable.

Give me an album of this shyt
