Ice Cube still holds clout within the Black community. Will be interesting if Cube comes out in support of Trump in 2024.

Scrolling through Twitter a couple of weeks ago, I came across a clip of rightwing commentator Tucker Carlson interviewing a face I never thought I’d see on his platform: Ice Cube.

As in **** Tha Police Ice Cube.

“What planet am I on right now?” I found myself thinking.

In a two-part segment, Ice Cube and Carlson commiserated about cancel culture and cast doubt on the safety of the Covid vaccine. “It was six months, kind of a rush job and I didn’t feel safe,” Ice Cube said about his widely-publicized resistance to the Covid shot. He also claimed that he’s been banned from appearing on the talkshows The View and Oprah because he is too much of an “independent thinker”.

It seems Ice Cube has become quite the conservative media darling lately, sitting down with not just Carlson, but Joe Rogan and Piers Morgan as well. He’s joining a long list of rappers – Kanye West, Da Baby, Kodak Black, Lil Pump – who have all put themselves in dangerous proximity to conservative politicians even as rightwing populism threatens to destroy their communities...

This article is an example of how the left does not approve of black people stepping out of their lines of what the left thinks black people are supposed to believe.

Doesn't matter. Those rappers going to the right won't get more Black people to go to the right. Stacey Dash is supposedly a right winger. She's persona non grata in the Black American population. Candace Owen is a Black right winger, and young. She's not having much influence on Black Americans.

The problem is these ignorant black men need woke white women to tell them how to think.

I think it’s going to happen to some extent whether you like it or not. Maybe not necessarily due to rappers, but because it will be more apparent that government Dems continue to let people down.
