When i look back at my baggy pants wearing, cap backwards, days of my teenage years i can think of very few people who had impact on my musical tastes as rapper and now actor Ice Cube.
Looking back few were as racist and sweary.

Ice Cube was a key member (by key i mean not pornographer DJ Yella) of the rap group N.W.A, an acronym that would scream hardcore for just a few short years. Ice Cube left the group in 1990 over alleged royalty disputes and went on to a solo career and acting roles.
Recently Ice Cube's role as Bowman in Call of Duty; Black Ops was excellent though it wasn't the rappers role in the single player story, it was Ice Cube's voiceover for the multiplayer portion of the game that got my attention. It's amazing because i don't think of the voiceover in multiplayer as being all that important, sure it can add a desired feel to multiplayer but it isn’t necessary. In this case i think it adds something, even if it’s only a conversation piece during a match.
