GOSSIP:
|
- Said a few lines on Chunky A's (Arsenio Hall) song Dope, The Big Lie, from the album Large and in Charge.
- Hip-hop artist, well known as the father of gangsta music, which spawned the careers of artists like N.W.A., Snoop Dogg, and the Geto Boys.
- His song Cop Killer, which was recorded with his heavy metal group Body Count, was the subject of a national debate on the glorification of violence in the media. After the song was removed from Body Count's self-titled debut album, and after further controversy over the artwork for the then-forthcoming Home Invasion album, he was dropped by Sire/Warner Bros. Records, which had released the album. The split was amicable, even though Sire had assigned the catalog number 45119 to the album. Later pressings of the self-titled Body Count album were replaced by the Ice-T solo track Freedom of Speech (Just Watch What You Say). Home Invasion was released eventually by Ice's now-defunct label, Rhyme $yndicate Records, through Priority/EMI, with the intended artwork intact.
- Chose his pseudonym in honor of author Iceberg Slim (pen name of Robert Maupin Beck, 1918-1992; aka, Robert Beck), an ex-pimp turned author whose heavy-hitting novels detailed the hard life of the criminal underworld.
- Served in the U.S. Army Rangers (1979-1981).
- Was injured in a car accident in 1986, when his Porsche 914 was broadsided by another vehicle. The car accident later served as a turning point where Ice focused his skills on rapping and producing albums.
- His daughter's name is Letesha and his son's name is Tracy Marrow Jr. and is called Little Ice.
- Holds the distinction of being the only guest vocalist ever to appear on a Black Sabbath album, doing a guest rhyme on the song Illusion of Power on Sabbath's 1995 album, Forbidden.
- His feud with former LAPD chief Daryl Gates was widely reported by the American press.
- His longtime girlfriend was a Criplet--a female Crip gang member in Los Angeles, California.
- Is the first hip-hop MC to perform the notorious C-Walk dance in front of cameras in the early 1980s.
- His wife, Nicole Austin, a.k.a. Coco, is a swimsuit model.
- Is good friends with Six Feet Under vocalist Chris Barnes.
- Although he had a large feud with the LAPD as a result from his song Cop Killer, he, ironically, plays a cop in the popular series Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (1999).
- Almost didn't accept the role of Scottie in the film NEW JACK CITY (1991) because he feared that if the film was a flop it would negatively effect his already hot hip-hop career. It turned out to be his breakthrough part and started him on his acting career.
