Ice Cube infuriated a gaggle of Twitter users with a recent onslaught of memes. The West Coast rap legend’s social media spree began on Wednesday (June 10) and continued well into Thursday (June 11).
In the process, many Twitter users accused him of posting anti-Semitic imagery from a fake Russian propaganda website, making it seem like his account had been hacked.
But Cube denied any hacking had taken place and confirmed it was indeed him talking. At least one person is thrilled to see Cube in action — Royce Da 5’9. The Slaughterhouse MC shared a tweet on Thursday afternoon thanking the outraged white people.
“Dear White People…Thank you for reactivating Ice Cube,” he wrote. “On behalf of the culture, we are extremely grateful.”
Killer Mike also praised Cube for speaking out while taking over Selena Gomez’s Instagram account this week.
“I have sadness, misery, hopelessness; basically everything that every Black person feels in their gut,” he wrote. “I feel all of that and I think its important that we’re all honest about that,” he wrote. “When my idol (@icecube) is speaking about problems and letting the world know they exist, that speaks to how a lot of black people are feeling.”
What The Hell Is Going On With Ice Cube's Twitter?
Cube has seemed to take the recent police killing of 46-year-old George Floyd to heart. Three days after Floyd’s May 25 murder, Cube canceled an appearance on Good Morning America, tweeting he was “in no mood to tell America, good morning.” He’s been in “Fuck Tha Police” mode ever since.
Why does Royce’s da slide nine always get a gay pass
At this point ppl r trying 2 make it a race war. It should be ppl vs govt but ppl like royce wanna make it racial smh
It can’t be white vs black. It has to be everybody vs racists.
Ok so that includes statements like royces. He didnt say racist whites he ssid whites. Lumped up all in 1 again
yeah but apparently cube and royce are the anti-semites and racists
Racism is huge business to the media, corporations and politicians – shout out to all the black people who see and understand this
Only black people? Filthy racist!
Racism is also a weapon used by the very ones whom create racism… you do realize you are all being used right now? By the very ones who promote racism are the same ones that are taking EVERYONES rights. Fastest way to cripple a nation is to turn the people on each other, after that there new world.order takes place
i think the reality is this happens all the time but the media come along and pick and choose something to run with to help themselves they want to push an agenda. fox cnn should not be doing that. what is the solution gun control mental health etc…
If a prominent white musician posted on twitter, beginning with “dear black people…” – would that be an issue? That’s exactly the same generalising and stereotyping that we need to resist. I’m disappointed in Royce for saying this, I thought he’d have a greater understanding of the effect’s of such statements. A shame
those who saying that this one or that one is racist, usually are racists itself, can you see that they always marking “White” this “white” that? thats how the segregation works. As well those terms: Afro-americans, Asia-americans this shit is segregation.
Exactly, just like all the dirty little white racists on the this comment section who call every black person who calls out white racism, ‘racist’.
You do understand that it was only white people whom were triggered by cubes comments right? And also royce was thanking white people he didn’t
say anything that would be degrading in any way all he did was specify the group whom he was thanking ,sonic you want to be social justice warrior go fight the trumpers who are happy the trans community just got shit on by trump …
Royce Da side line.. Cause ya know with out us Stans, who would you be? Ducking Ems dick for rent money? Scraping by off Bad Meets Evil royalties. Last album was garbage, and the older you get the more open you are about how you feel. You sound like the racist Royce. So resentful, but I know black ppl dont buy music. That’s always been a white thing, why do you think Chuck Berry died broke and Elvis didnt? Fuck this BLM, aka blacks are superior mentality, and my family is biracial. Stupid fuck, clean your own culture up and stop playing victim black America. Your culture is violent and garbage, and I live in Chicago so trust me it’s not my “opinion”. I’d love it if all the blacks werent killing and robbing eachnl other, then half this city would be commutable with out worry of a stray bullet coming through your car window.
And your the problem in Amerikkka smh.
“Waah waah” shut the fuck up you little bitch
