Ice Cube Has A Request For Elon Musk Following $44B Twitter Acquisition

    Ice Cube returned from a trip to Morrison, Colorado last week where he performed at the historic Red Rocks Amphitheater alongside Cypress Hill, E-40 and Too $hort for the annual 420 on the Rocks show.

    Now presumably back at home in Los Angeles, the N.W.A legend has turned his attention to Twitter, which is currently blowing up with news surrounding Elon Musk, the social media giant’s new owner.

    On Monday (April 25), Ice Cube was seemingly overjoyed by the recent development and tweeted, “Free at last! @elonmusic take off my shadow ban homie.”

    Twitter’s board accepted Elon Musk’s offer just hours before Ice Cube’s tweet, landing at about $44 billion. According to the New York Times, Twitter agreed to sell it to Musk for $54.20 a share, a 38 percent premium over the company’s share price this month before he revealed he was the firm’s single largest shareholder.

    “Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and Twitter is the digital town square where matters vital to the future of humanity are debated,” Musk said in a statement. “I also want to make Twitter better than ever by enhancing the product with new features, making the algorithms open source to increase trust, defeating the spam bots, and authenticating all humans. Twitter has tremendous potential — I look forward to working with the company and the community of users to unlock it.”

    Of course, skepticism is flying surrounding the purchase. While Twitter isn’t the biggest social platform — it has more than 217 million daily users, compared with billions for Facebook and Instagram — it consistently shapes narratives around the world. But it’s also a breeding ground for extreme harassment, hate and the spreading of misinformation. During Donald Trump’s presidency, he frequently turned to Twitter to insult and inflame before he was finally kicked off the platform in January following the Capitol riot.

    Elon Musk, 50, is the founder, CEO and Chief Engineer at SpaceX as well as an early-stage investor, the CEO and Product Architect of Tesla, Inc., founder of The Boring Company and co-founder of Neuralink and OpenAI. As of this month, he has an estimated net worth of around $273 billion, making him the wealthiest person in the world according to both the Bloomberg Billionaires Index and Forbes real-time billionaires list.

    1. Didn’t know until recently that Elon was racist and runs Tesla as such, and I certainly didn’t know that he was raised in South Africa by a White Nationalist father. I still may buy some Twitter stock and see if I can make a couple bucks off this racist batch. I’m going to Ride the wave with the masses; peeps check out “Robinhood” you can buy partial stocks and the company is reputable you won’t get ripped off. I have made far more money off my Robinhood investments than I have off my IRA and my 401k from my job, though my 401k is doing pretty well. Peep it out and see if it is for you.

      1. robinhood is for idiots lol the stock market literally robs from the poor to give to the rich complete opposite from robin hood, you could trade stock from your phone in 2003 with ameritrade or whatever it was called back then you dont need an app for it but snowflakes think they need an app for everything and all this tech is new

        1. Hahaha someone who feels like I do. I hate needing an app for everything. Just build your damn mobile site with an ounce of competence.

      2. You don’t gotta buy stocks. Just place call options. Boom. Money made with less involvement

      1. The problem with that is, you cannot own every franchise team no matter how much money you have.

        1. but you can start your own league while doubling the salary cap, or buy 2 million + container homes & this clown spends it on somethin a 7th grader can code and then spend a billion in marketing so everyone switches over, this money laundering on a whole nother level cus musk aint an idiot or has some alterior motive yes im pocket watchin that 44 billion could feed free breakfast to kids for decades and he buys a clown site where people post brain farts

    2. Elon Musk knows he needs to shake investors in Cali. He knows they are desperate for authenticity, who’s more local than Ice Cube. Ice cube signals he supports Elon Musk, Twitter deal goes through.
      How many people in Cali told to buy/sell in Cali cause of Cubes tweet? ?

    3. This is a major win for free speech and the left is losing its minds because they thought they would control online speech forever. Cry more lol

          1. “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

            Google is your friend

      1. “The Left”? Motherfucker this is a hip hop site, take your right wing bitch ass over to CountryMusicDX.com with that Kanye ass bullshit

      2. this a hiphop site stop trying to make everything political. but if you’re that tired of “the left” you can always just stfu and use Trump’s socials network and say whatever you want

    4. Trump used? Actually the whole site was a liberal circus designed to infiltrate the minds of the weak. Looking for a refreshing change. I left years ago and never looked back. Maybe now, who knows?

    5. Pretty sad cube can speak on supporting another deep state official and have nothing to do with California completely falling apart.
