Ice cold motherfucker

Ice-T is surely one of the most articulate and intelligent voices in music. let alone hip hop. He helped invent and popularise the gangsta rap movement in the 805 and has stirred controversy like no one else with his metal side project and their hardcore thrasher ‘Cop Killer‘. It's a real coup for T on the Fringe securing a full club show from the man himself (we'll just not mention Tank Girl though eh?). (Henry Northmore)
