It's not about being mad at everything. It's about being really mad at the right things.

You've got the Wall Street situation, the sub-prime situation. You've got a black president. We've got wars. We've got unemployment. But the music doesn't reflect that. And I challenge anybody to show me a music that's on the radio that reflects that.

I'm very much against the anonymity of bloggers and social media. I just hate it and I think it's really cowardly.

I've never read for a movie, I've always been given them.

Anybody who has anybody in the armed forces, I don't care how well-trained they are, there's nothing safe about it.

I was a full-blown street cat. I was trying to hustle my way. I thought I was going to hustle my way to a mansion or something. I was doing pretty good, but I didn't realize that there was no way to win that game.

I look at my career and I feel I have the potential to maybe mature into a Samuel Jackson-type older cat, and people will still respect me and say 'Yo, Ice-T was wild', into my old age. And why not? I don't necessarily think I'll be rapping in 10 years.
