*Ice Cube posted a video Sunday in which he speaks about being on the outs with the Hollywood “gatekeepers”.
The rapper-turned-actor says he faces a slew of burdens in the industry, which he attributes to his controversial “Contract with Black America,” a proposal that has triggered Black liberals.
“Some of you may not have realized that I’m not part of the club,” said Ice Cube in his video statement, Deadline reports. “And a lot of you listening to me right here and right now, you are not part of the club either. And what I realized with the club is, what makes them so mad is when you don’t want to be a part of they (expletive) club. That pisses them off.”
Ice Cube continued, “What club am I talking about? I’m talking about the club of gatekeepers that we all got to deal with. You know who they are and they definitely know who they are.”
If ya’ll don’t know who he’s referring to, ask Kanye – he knows.
According to Ice Cube, his Big3 basketball league is not receiving the media attention it deserves due to his political views.
In the comments of his video post, Tyrese responded with a lengthy but supportive message, writing: “Big bro, there’s nothing about your life that’s ever been normal. You have been a disruptor from the beginning and when you’re a disruptor, nothing will ever come easy what I appreciate about your heart is that unlike other entrepreneurs and businessman or entertainers they don’t post anything about politics the struggles the challenges of getting something off the ground. The only thing they wanna post all the wins the millions of dollars to be made what they driving and what they living in and when they get on the cover of Forbes.”
The “Fast & Furious” star continued, “There’s a lot of ask NBA legends who’s got you and your vision to thank that you’re giving them the stage and platform to get back on the court, and do what they’ve always love to do unfortunately our legend and icons become disposable and get thrown away to never ever have anyone to look in the direction ever again…. I got your back. I’m about to repost this whole video on my IG page and I hope that everybody just reading this comment. Do whatever it takes to get some tickets and go and support the big Homie ice cube and the BIG THREE.”
