Watts, California rapper Kam recalled introducing Ice Cube to the Nation of Islam, and cutting his Jheri curl off, during a new interview.
While speaking with Vlad TV, West Coast musician Kam revealed that he was the one who cut fellow artist, Ice Cube’s Jheri curl off. He also explained that the two exchanged information with one another about their interests.
According to Kam, Ice Cube shared his knowledge of music, while he informed Cube about the Nation of Islam.
“I did that,” Kam said while speaking on cutting Ice Cube’s hair. “They left that out in the movie. Yeah, I cut his curl off. We was cool like that, so that ain’t nothing…He wasn’t NOI [Nation of Islam], but he was studying—He was aware, but yeah, he wasn’t NOI…Just brotherhood. Just sharing information, sharing experiences. He had a lot to offer me that was attractive to me about his lifestyle and music. What I had to offer, what I brought to the table was my lifestyle and experience. And it was just a mutual exchange of what I was into versus what he was into, and bringing them together…He brought me around the music thang. He put me on on the music thang. And I put him on on the brotherhood thang.”
In regards to whether or not Ice Cube ever officially joined the Nation of Islam, Kam offered a yes and no answer. He explained that given the former N.W.A rapper’s celebrity, it would be hard for him to fully join.
“I would say ‘yeah’ and ‘no.’ Because all of us—If you know the definition, Islam is just an Arabic word that means submission or peace,” he said. “One of our definitions is mathematics. It’s just mathematics, science, truth. So, all of it. All human beings is actually Muslim if you understand it right. As far as that specific organization. And the rules and regulations, and all of that. Yeah, he agreed. And he accepted his own. But by him being a high profile person, entertainer, celebrity, and all that, you can’t bring a person down to boot camp level if he already got the ear of millions.”

FOH with ur islamic BS….
Bucktooth somali in need of refuge. Your arab massa callin, bighead NIGGUH.
And take that bullshit rebel flag with cha
Leave that islam shit in the middle east . Raghead hippies
Cube went from gangsta to Islam to the diggity Das Efx…
FACT: All Religions come from the MidEast. Ice Cube is officially Sunni Muslim, not NOI. NOI doesn’t even practice Real Islam.
Unless you consider Egypt or Alexandria, Egypt the middle east then you might appreciate a correction. Egyptian Religion is the origin of spiritual interpretation. Then Muslim is the first and oldest of currently recognized religions.
Actually. Islam or Muslim as you put it is only 1300 years old. Christianity is 2000 years old and Judaism is 3500 years old. Hinduism which is not from the Middle East is close to 4000 years old.
FACT: All religion do not come from the Middle East.
ALL? No, the world is not all about the middle east.
hey Danielle why do you guys repost stuff off of vlad tv…get your own exclusives…speaking of vlad did you know he got his ears stomped together by rick ross and them dade county boys…he didn’t even fight back…they beat that man like a old Virginia slave…out of all the people ross could have made an example out of he chose vlad because he knew vlad was very moist…vlad bragged about suing ross on angela yees lip service smh. he tried to sue for 4 mill but only got what ross makes for 2 shows…smh…vlad lost his manhood, respect and honor
Thanks to their ties to Islam Cube and Common squashed their beef at the NOI Peace Conference hosted by Farrakhan.
kam was dope though. neva again made in america and the shit he did wit pooh. wish that “warzone” shit with eiht and goldie loc would have actually amounted to something tho
Islam is for nigga slaves who want to kiss arab or Faggakhan ass. Hell no!!!!!!!!!!
You’re a cornball, who probably believes Jesus was a white Roman.
Offended? Truth does hurt. I’m an atheist. I don’t need to be led by a light skinned string-haired “black” man. Go hang out with your Faggakhan, beanpie biiiiitch.
The first “niggas” followed their arab masters onto a slave ship and ended up in America. Their stupid “nigga” descendants followed their slaves onto a Faggakhan mothership. African Americans never get anywhere. Doesn’t matter how many generations pass. This mentality is why. You can’t fix stupid.
haha funny how he did not elaborate on Solo! How his beef with cube escalated that beef between Cube and Solo. thats the same dude the knoc out Cube and took his chain at a red light. Or his beef with Cube. how Cube took his W which stands for Watts, and made Westside connection. Kam missed out alot. at the end. Cube is still the man.
Snoop got him a deal in 2006 as a member of the Warzone, or maybe it was Dubb Union, I don’t remember. Can’t say I’m surprised that it didn’t pan out, considering they were on some west coast gangsta shit in the same era of the “walk it out” and “ay bay bay” and “pop lock and drop it” and “do yo chain hang low”. It worked for Game but I guess it was a fluke because the 2 groups Snoop tried to get mainstream almost completely flopped, although one of them had a single with Snoop called “Hat 2 da Bacc”. It actually wasn’t bad tbh, it was on MTV Jams at the time. Other members were Goldie Loc (from tha eastsidaz) and MC Eiht. I also remember this guy from Sway and King Tech’s album Back 2 Basics. I guess he is kind of a big deal with west coast vets.
