After receiving heavy criticism for being in contact with the Trump 2020 campaign, Ice Cube sat down with Hot 97 to clarify his thoughts.
In the interview he denied supporting Donald Trump and discussed white supremacy on “both sides of the aisle.”
His words below:
On his support for Trump he said:
“I’m not supporting Donald Trump.”
On racism he said:
“White supremacy do turn me off, but it’s everywhere, and it’s on both sides of the aisle. That’s just the reality that we live in, and I’m not naive to that. We’re engulfed in white supremacy, so that’s just something we’re gonna have to fight our way out of.”
On working with Trump he said:
“f you really think that I was tricked, duped, or whatever…people spent their entire weekend breaking down Trump’s plan to people, trying to talk shit about me. And so, people gotta look at what they did to pump up the man’s plan. I never in my life said anything about his plan until I had to come out and defend the truth.”
The interview then went on to discuss how the N.W.A. rapper has voted in the past and how he plans to vote in the upcoming election.

What is the most annoying is these Black men have a huge platform of people and they are continuously determined to take a s*** on things in real time. If Cube has shown anything over the past week, he’s shown how ignorant he is. He can’t see he was being used for publicity?
Loves it 💕
you comment is just aimed to disrespect black men period.. we say we hate black and white but that’s just to prove that nobody is perfect
I believe him and I forgive. But right now anyone that standing near trump at this time is going down. lesson learned. He is too dangerous to try to reason with! I agree with his outlook; its just bad timing.
VOTE TRUMP…..where was Joe lazy-ass Biden 4 years ago..
So all that to end up saying it doesn’t matter whose the president but change comes from legislation wow. We knew that but why do you feel the need to collaborate with someone who doesn’t have a good rep with unity in America? Would you collaborate with R.Kelly on ending the trend of holding young girls hostage? Let’s be fair…. respectfully!
