Ice Cube is still ‘‘••••in' the police ”
And this time they have names — Koon.
Powell, Briseno and Wind, the Los An
geles officers acquitted in beating
motorist Rodney King
If any one person benefited from the
whole affair, it may be IceCube.
The event plays a big role in his new
album The Predator, helping him tran
scend the label of “gansta" rap that he

album are threats toward the Sum Valley
