‘ROUND THE WAY: ICE CUBE TALKS ABOUT LOTTERY TICKET, MONTANA FISHBURNE, MUSIC and MORE

Actor, director and rapper, Ice Cube sat down with BET.COM in a recent interview. The film writer discussed his new film, “Lottery Ticket,” upcoming music, film & TV projects, and his thoughts on Montana Fishburne’s choice of occupation:

On what to expect from “Lottery Ticket”:
“It’s funny. Anybody looking to come up, go check it out because Bow Wow shows you how to do it.”

On his upcoming album, ‘I Am the West’:
“It will be out next month, the 28th of September. It’s a West Coast record. It’s like all the West Coast artists from the last 10 years been trying to figure out what kind of record we need to do to—I hate the word get back on top—but just get back in the game. It has been too long and it’s really time for us to do what we do best and that’s what this record is.”

His thoughts on Montana Fishburne’s new career:
“I don’t like it. I feel for Larry Fishburne and it’s just a sad situation. Every father ‘s job is to keep their daughter out of that. But it’s really on her. He didn’t do nothing wrong. She trippin’.”

On upcoming film & TV projects:
“I got “Are We There Yet?” the television series, that’ll be back on in December. I’m about to film a movie with Woody Harrelson called “Rampart.” “Rampart” is one of the most corrupt divisions of the LAPD, so that’s cool. I’m also touring with my record, hustling and keeping it moving.” [ SOURCE ]

“Lottery Ticket” featuring Bow Wow, Mike Epps, Brandon T. Jackson and Naturi Naughton hits movie theaters TODAY.

    Sounds like this may be a good movie.. why are they asking him about

    Montana ‘leopard skin booty’ Fishburne? This is just fuelling her attention seeking

    antics..

  4. 2 BAD

    lol @ leopard skin booty

  5. KEEP IT 100

    YESSS CUBE! I LOVE HIM! PLEASE STOP TALKING ABOUT THAT GIRL. SHE IS GETTING EXACTLY WHAT SHE WANTS: PUBLICITY.
    WHERE IS MAC 10?

    I don’t think he should comment on Mr. Fishburne’s fathering skills. Honestly, they come into question since his daughter is a whore. Not saying I have more reason to comment, I’m just saying no one knows what went on behind their doors so we should just leave well alone. “Another bites the dust” so let’s move on.

  7. LULU

    Cube as really done well for himself. Congrats.

  8. Kyla

    Lol @ “She trippin’”

    Ice Cube is so Cali .. I love it.

    And Montana’s “career” decision doesn’t mean Larry was a bad father or anything like that (I know Ice Cube didn’t say anything about that but I’m just sayin’).

    Ice Cube’s comments about Montana were respectful. They were not mean spirited and ugly.
    I wish Ice Cube the best. I do not think his movie will be very successful at the box office. I am not feeling some of the previews.

    —-Ice Cube is one of the original sellouts. That group; NWA, was a CIA group, and
    —-they were certainly ahead of their time in their promotion of wanton violence, all
    —-black clothing, and the worship of money in hip hop. All their most important
    —-members had direct ties to the government and bigwigs in the entertainment
    —-industry. By many of Ice Cube’s videos, and even his rap name, one can tell that
    —-that is what based in the occult. One of the names for Saturn is the “Iceman”,
    —-and the key symbol of Saturn a.k.a. The Iceman, is the cube. No so-called
    —-”militant” negro gets production deals in movies and television unless he is fully
    —-down with the program. That’s not even to mention “Eazy-E”, who had “666″
    —-tattooed on his arm and met with Ronald Reagan in the White House, or Dr. Dre
    —-who is one of the biggest b*sexual devils in the music industry.

    Hey, “Judah the Buddah”, I see you….’gon then!

  12. Tiff.Will. [Tiffany.Williams]

    Ghetto.

  13. Tiff.Will. [Tiffany.Williams]

    Ghetto.

  14. Brandi

    Ahhh, so that’s what a father does. Gotcha.

  15. BN-W

    N-word used more than 15 times — NOT GOOD!!! Joking about enslavement in America — NOT GOOD!!! Spend your hard-earned dollars and quality time on something else — and NOT this film…

  16. Tha.......TRUTH!!!!!!!

    HORRIBLE HORRIBLE movie. Should have aired on BET!!!!

  17. MINIME

    JUDAH IS SO RIGHT ABOUT THIS, ESPECIALLY THE EASY E PART. ITS ALL ON LINE YOU NAYSAYERS. YOU CAN READ IT FOR YOURSELVES. I JUST WONDERED WHY EASY E ENDED UP DYING OF AIDS THOUGH. THIS GROUP DEFINITELY CONTRIBUTED BIG TIME TO THE DESTRUCTION OF THE BLACK COMMUNITY AND THE YOUTH. THAT IS WHEN BLACK MEN REALLY STARTED KILLING EACH OTHER IN LA, MORE THAN EVER, ALL THE WHILE LISTENING TO NWA’S MUSIC. I REMEMBER IT WELL. NOT TO MENTION SNOOP AND DR. DRE. SNOOP ALSO PROMOTED GANG ACTIVITY AS YOU WELL KNOW.

  18. darknlovely

    I never knew rap music back then was so influential to gang violence, i thought it was

    just ‘art imitating life’ …smh at the music industry

  19. 5

    I will not pay money to see this coon azz movie. All the buffoonery & black people wonder why nobody takes us seriously. When will the bullsh!t stop? Do you think we will win any oscars for crap like this?

  20. Peace at Heart

    uhhhh hmmmm how do you know LF didn’t do anything wrong Ice Cube…. we’re you in their house 24 hrs a day??? no you weren’t therefore your idotic comment holds no validity…

    I tell you some people are a hot mess to think others are stupid as they protect those based on their accomplishments or for whatever silly reasons…

    he should have just pleaded the 5th and kept it moving… really….

  21. Peace at Heart

    #15 not surprised to hear the feedback you gave, so not surprised !!!

  22. Peace at Heart

    even Paul Mooney finally woke up and stopped using the N word after the Michael Richards fiasco… Cube and the other ignorant speaking males who are still embracing the n word need to catch on and wake up as well

    @JUDAH

    that’s very interesting info on the saturn-iceman-cube combo.

    come to think of it — we have saturday as in ‘saturn day’, then we have all the cube imagery from the sci-fi movies and obviously the video games and gadgets with X boxes shaped as cubes.

    and also, don’t even get me started on the saturn hat!

  25. Pepa

    This comment from the man who made The Players Club…

  26. aplMacLady

    lmao@ “she trippin.” I love Cube and why are they asking him about Mon. Fish? C’mon Cube rep the West!

  27. Selfish

    Judah, usually your interpretations are interesting BUT for you to say that Ice Cube is one of the original sell out is just wrongg. Have you listen to any albums by him? Ice Cube is far from a sellout. HE worked his way to the top anyone can see that. Again, I am always intrigued by your comments but you are way off on this one.

  28. JUDAH

    —–@SELFISH

    ——You disagreeing with what I said does not make me incorrect. You did nothing
    ——to refute what I stated. What many people do not grasp is that the entertainment
    ——industry is exactly that, an INDUSTRY. An industry creates a PRODUCT. All of
    ——these people are PRODUCTS. It does not matter what they (allegedly) rap or sing
    ——about. They all come from the same source and are getting paid by the same
    ——people. “Artists” like “Ice Cube” cover the “gangsta”, allegedly “angry black man”
    ——demographic, Common covers the allegedly “conscious” demographic, and
    ——an artist like Lil Wayne covers the popular/mainstream demographic, but they all
    ——meet in the middle. They all sold out, and the white Jews are not investing money
    ——in a man who is contrary to what they want to propagandize the masses with.
    ——Ice Cube is an alleged “revolutionary”, but all his films and shows are simple-
    ——minded coonfests. Believe me, those caucasian sexual deviants that comprise
    ——the elite movers and shakers in the music industry get a kick out of making Ice
    ——Cube perform degenerate acts behind closed doors to get a check.
