Cube’s new single is out
Ice Cube explains his recent line ” I was Kendrick before Kendrick [Lamar]’ . during an appearance on SiriusXM’s Rock The Bells Radio on Wednesday, 23rd October to promote a song called “It’s My Ego.”
On the tune, Cube raps: “I minister this pimp shit/I’ve been a minister since an infant/I was Kendrick before Kendrick/Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, like Jimi Hendrix.”
When host Torae asked him to elaborate on the line, Cube provided more insight. “A provocative artist – an artist that said what I felt, put it all out there, very critical of the system and the government and what we have to go through as Black people in this country,” he said. “And I think he’s the same kind of artist. Thought-provoking artist. And so, I was that before he was.”
