In what would seem a laughable proposition in his NWA days, Ice Cube won an NAACP Image Award during the 42nd Annual NAACP Image Awards last night (March 5).

Cube won “Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy” for his role in the movie Are We There Yet?

The west coast emcee wasn’t the only Hip Hop representative at the show, however, as LL Cool J was awarded “Outstanding Actor in a Drama Series” for his role in “NCIS: Los Angeles.”
