Ice-T Calls Out Twitter User for Mistaking Him for Ice Cube
Sometimes it's best to keep your tweets to yourself. A Twitter user had to learn the hard way after mistaking Ice-T for Ice Cube on social media.
For some backstory, Cube recently appeared on Bill Maher's HBO show Real Time With Bill Maher, to discuss the comedian using the N-word during a joke last week. “It’s a word that has been used against us,” said Cube. “It’s like a knife. You can use it as a weapon or you can use it as a tool. It’s been used as a weapon against us by white people. We not gon’ let that happen again.”
He added, “I like your show. I like you. But I think this is a teachable moment, not just to you but to the people who are watching right now.”
One person wasn't feeling Cube's reasoning, because, he's a gangsta rapper and all, and decided to call him out on Twitter. The only problem was, the person called out the wrong rapper, mentioning Ice-T instead. "Screw U 4 whining on Bill Maher," they wrote. "When is ur music gonna respect women? How dare U go on show and whine like this."
For this the person got a simple response from the wrongly-accused rapper. "Wrong Ice Bitch," he posted.
Oops. The embarrassment, and possibly harassment from Ice-T and hip-hop fans has since caused the person to delete their account.
