Ice-T Defends Controversial Song 'Cop Killer'
Ice-T, the rapper and founding member of the band Body Count, reflected on the controversy surrounding their 1992 song 'Cop Killer' in a recent interview. He emphasized that while the song generated significant buzz, it did not lead to financial gain and actually resulted in bomb threats against their label, Warner Bros. Ice-T advised aspiring artists that controversy does not equate to profit, stating, 'You get a lot of buzz, but now you need lawyers.' He clarified that the song was a commentary on police brutality rather than a call to violence, asserting, 'I never killed no cop.' Additionally, he indicated that the song is currently unavailable on streaming platforms, despite its historical significance. Ice-T also mentioned that his views have evolved since the song's release, noting that his recent work reflects a more current perspective on social issues.
