Keeping it Real
ICE T is celebrating his 48th Birthday today.
He has turned his life around, starting off as a rapper, laying down lyrics with Arsenio Hall. He became known as the godfather of gangsta music, rapping about killing cops on the song subtely titled "Cop Killer". He is an entrepeneuar, in that he formed his own record label (after being dropped by Sony). And he hosted "Ice T's Pimping 101." Now he plays a cop on TV and provides voiceovers for Grand Theft Auto San Andreas as well as Dark Wing Duck.
Throughout his career as a rap artist, tv and film actor, and always public figure, Ice T has learned quite a bit about race relations and how to make appeals across various racial divides.
In his own words:
" 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."
Give them what they want, Ice, give them what they want.

Please come back to us Phil! 2 posts in a month just isn't going to cut it.
I need my fill of Phil.
Phil, I wasn't too happy about the latest email from you. Another 7.5% increase in tuition is just demoralizing!
Why do you only pop up to email us about reconciliation and money. You have so much more on your blog here.
