@@trufit65 He started a charity clothing line to support Autism, he supports another charity called 'A Place Called Home', he has other charities that support the poor and homeless. He's provided an avenue for multiple artists to make it big in the industry, he started a league for players who's time had passed in the NBA but still have skills, he's helped change Hollywood's view of black movie casts in their relation to box office success....yeah, I'd say he's pretty dope.
The 90's were the golden age for Black experience and representation. John along with Spike were at the forefront cinematic wise. Those type of movies that showcase urban lifestyle ''hood movies'' don't really get recognized but they're also some of my faves.
I just watched Boyz N The Hood for the first time yesterday (I've seen Cube's other films before). It's hands down John Singleton's best work and a fantastic, perfect movie.
I remember how I felt listening to NWA, Ice Cube’s first 3 albums, and watching Boyz in the Hood back in the early 90s. Something bout him always resonated with me... I just put on “amerikkka’s most wanted” the other day and was so hyped that I followed it up with the 25th anniversary issue of “death certificate.” Reflecting back on listening to him as a 12 year old, he really taught me a LOT about life and the world. Thank you Ice Cube for always keeping it real....
I like this guy. Being a 70 year Englishman I shouldn't know who his is, but I like music, and watch SVU. He is exactly what you see. Talented, humble & real. He gives back to his community without making a fuss. I like that.
Among the best things I love about Boyz n The Hood is Doughboy for his character and story development and Ice Cube’s performance in the role. Cube at the time was among the emerging hip-hopers in the 90s with his debut solo album AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted after leaving NWA. The guy may not have had attended drama class in school, never did a film, never did a TV show or a stage show but it was the encouragement from John Singleton due to their friendship that convinced Cube to get the part of Doughboy. John Singleton met Ice Cube when he was a member of backstage crew at the Arsenio Hall Show and even though Cube turned down the offer a couple times, I’m beyond glad he accepted the offer. For an inexperienced actor in a cinematic debut, Ice Cube did an awesome job playing Doughboy. He played the role as if he (Cube himself) never had a dad, is the subject of ridicule and verbal abuse by his mum who favours a brother of his and ends up as as a Rollin 60s Crip. He did it so damn convincingly that he should’ve got an Oscar, a BAFTA, a Golden Globe - all three for “Best Supporting Actor” and MTV Movie Award for “Best Breakthrough Performance”. This was long before Cube did the Friday films (film series he also wrote/produced), Are We There Yet?, xXx 2 and 3, Fist Fight, Ride Along, 21/22 Jump Street, Ghost of Mars, the Barbershop films, Rampart, Tresspass etc If the Marc Webb-directed and Andrew Garfield-starred Amazing Spider-Man films were to conclude with a 3rd film (a 4 hour 3rd film to end the story) and if Ice Cube appeared in it - he would’ve been J Jonah Jameson (Daily Bugle newspaper boss). Imagine Andrew Garfield and Ice Cube in the same room! Wasted/missed opportunity in my opinion.
Been a fan of him since the 80’s and have seen him in concert four times! Excellent! Oh and saw his son in concert with him also! Oh and saw Cypress Hill in concert and met them after the show! Been to so many concerts and Ice Cube is my favorite!
These movies did a great job of condemning our youth. I don't know how many of my friends wanted to be hoodies instead of lawyers and bankers. Keep up the great work whitie.

They references always spot on they tha best band on late night tv for sure.
X Y nah that’s gotta be the Roots come on now...
Sounded so heavenly and so smooth.. I rewind 2 times.. Sweet and beautiful Harmony..
"It Was A Good Day"
Ice Cube is so humble, what a great human being.
What makes him a great human being? What has he done or contributed to society to have earned that label?

The proof that Ice Cube isn't ageing is the picture with his son, they look more like twin brothers
Twinzys fo sho! 😎
That actually a the true super power of black people. The age very slowly.
Except Obama. The presidency sucked him gray.
Hopefully the genes won't stop 😂

I love Boyz N The Hood. Have seen that movie so many times (I stopped counting, must be over 40 times), always makes me cry.
i only watched it once but it left an indelible mark on my soul....
Yesterday, I saw the movie for the first time, and I loved it so much!!!!!!
“Chip off the old cube” 😆 Gold 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💯

What the hell happened here
Ice Cube has been the same guy for 30 years. A rap legend, a box office draw and all around good dude!
Ice cubes son looks more like ice cube than ice cube looks like ice cube 😂
This comment is so overused 😂
Ice Cube's laughter is a low volume version of Seth Rogen's laughter.
yea, and somehow not annoying as shit like Seth.
I can't unhear that now 🤦🏻♀️
Great comparison, I never noticed it before.
@05:30 okay, I hear it now!
this is like the best comment/observation ever

Moral of the John Singleton story ... don’t stop, be persistent !
I can't watch Boyz n the Hood without crying. It's such a powerful movie and heartbreaking. God save our people
What rapper you know has been relevant still today like this from the 90’s, still killing it, movies, music, eveythiiiing

That "Today was a Good Day" instrumental by the band was NICE!

Cube went from Gangsta to kid friendly. Shows that people, given the opportunity can evolve.
I adore Cube! Also his son looks so much like him and he was GREAT as his dad in Straight Outta Compton.

Love Ice Cube..
Hearing Stephen say gangsta is just too hilarious!!
Cube is 50-years-old now and he looks fantastic for his age! 👍
A chip of the old Cube. 😂
Mohamed Farouk LOL
Boyz in the hood is 1 of the best films ever made and he says he wasn’t qualified 🤷🏾♂️ his acting was brilliant in that movie
That was a funny story he told about John Singleton..Cute
My Daughter in-law has such a crush on Ice Cube.
Best intro song they’ve played in a while 😃👍🏼

i do adore summer breeze by the isley brothers though.

Mr Cube is *much* nicer and more personable “off camera” than his mostly intimidating roles 🙂
He's a teddy bear. Warm & fuzzy but DO NOT piss him off.
😂🤣😂 mr cube...I died

5:29 I never realised Ice Cube and Seth Rogen have the same hilarious laugh
OwO
"Chip off the old Cube" - alright, how long have you been waiting to use that one, Ice Cube?
He probably says it so often his son knows it's coming.
Ice Cube is a freaking LEGEND 🤩🤩🤩
For white folk
If anyone’s curious where “Bye Felicia” came from, this is the guy. #legend
🎶 knowin nothin in life, but to b LEGIT. don't quote me boy, cuz i aint said SH!T❕ 🎵

Still ice cold to this day... but forever a warm heart in the center of the cube!

Loved this segment. Cube is so dope.
We need another Friday movie!
Cubes the best. love that guy
Ice cube is a legend man. The respect this man deserves is unmeasurable
O Shea Jackson Jr is a great actor.
The true OG right here
Kayne got nothing on Ice Cube... nothing
Very smart and articulate person. Excellent guest
Dude's aging very well, 50-yo but looking 15 years younger
I enjoyed his story on how he met John Singleton.
Is ice cube aging in reverse? He looks so good!!
Some ones going to get fired for not *BLEEPING OUT* Stephen’s *“oh shit it is”*
Boyz N The Hood was legendary in so many ways
Never seen anyone rock a pencil beard so flawlessly, mad respect Cube!
Ice Cube's son looks more like Ice Cube than Ice Cube himself. LOL
Death of John is a massive lost
ice cube is a great storyteller
Jon and group kills it with that "It was a good day" intro. Well done.
Always loved him and fancied him but he did scare me when he frowned! 'Nough love 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Friday is the best black movie of all time
Dr. Bill - the funniest black movie maybe, but not the best.
He is amazing
Cube is mint,,, he knows or has known all the top rappers,,, he's still got his feet on the ground,,, respect
"Today Was a Good Day" is the best rap song ever.
Colbert is Straight Outta Charleston
Actually James Island but it still close lol
a chip off the old CUBE... 💎🔷 ... i like that 😄👍
When this man was born he slapped the doctor so he cries
I want to be a fly on the wall of the green room with Tig and Cube chillin
i think this is the first time i seen ice cube sound happy, lol
Maaan...the Legend Ice motherfuckin Cube! Ghetto Vet
Got your rags on your chair?
It's amazing that an appearance on The Arsenio Hall Show led to a movie role.
Can’t believe he wrote Friday, Funniest movie ever
I think Dj Pooh Wrote Friday he played Red in the movie
Erni Balla oh really I never knew
@@zinitevioki9015 That's why he had beef with Ice Cube because he took the credit for writing Friday
"Okay, man! WATCH-OUT!"- Ice Cube @ LMAO!!!!!!! @04:00 Great story, though!
Ice Cube is ageless. He looks the same since '91.
That short but Jazzy cover of It Was a Good Day
Boys N the Hood was a great movie. Fortunately, that movie and others like it were and still are viewed as the life that black people live.
Cube ment so much to me growing up as a colored kid in a white neighborhood. The man is a legend.
So this dude is 50 years old? Wow!
Please include extended or whole interviews.
Been a fan of him since the 80’s and have seen him in concert four times! Excellent! Oh and saw his son in concert with him also! Oh and saw Cypress Hill in concert and met them after the show! Been to so many concerts and Ice Cube is my favorite!
"Chip off the old cube" I like that
So much more onto it than the new wave of rappers. That Wiz interview on Joe Rogans podcast was painful
Ice cube is a Legend
How is IceCube not aging???
I love the Friday movies, I damn near pissed my pants from laughing so hard.
"It was a Good Day..." Really Cube? Best rap song in history.
Man that was a good entrance for him.
I make dough but don't call me dough boy!
Now I feel like watching 'Boyz N The Hood'
These movies did a great job of condemning our youth. I don't know how many of my friends wanted to be hoodies instead of lawyers and bankers. Keep up the great work whitie.
