As the election results continue to come in, Ice Cube takes to Twitter to voice his displeasure with the backlash he’s faced over his Republican meeting.
And while he’s generally opted to keep his retorts short and to the point, Cube took a moment to reflect on the fallout of his political foray. “Let me get this straight,” he begins. “I get the president of the United States to agree to put over half a trillion dollars of capital in the Black Community (without an endorsement) and Ni*gas are mad at me? Have a nice life.” Followers were quick to pick apart his statement, with some accusing Cube of validating Trump’s credibility among other criticisms. Though you’d think that the N.W.A. legend, who previously released the incendiary “Fuck The Police,” would be used to scrutiny, it would appear he’s been getting a little frustrated with how circumstances are playing out.
Check out his message below, and sound off — do you think Ice Cube made the right decision by breaking bread with the Republican party?
