Talking about his hit movie, “Straight Outta Compton,” failing to get a best movie Oscar nomination, Ice Cube says it’s like “complaining that you don’t have enough icing on your cake.”
Mr. Cube says the movie has received accolades from all corners of the entertainment industry, to dwell on one guild not giving you an award is wasted energy.
One gets the sense that he realizes how blessed he is to be among the very, very few who is successful beyond all dreams, to pout about an Oscar seems petulant and tone deaf.
Hugh Laurie (House) is sitting on the panel of the Graham Norton Show and describes Ice Cube’s thoughts as the most cogent he has heard on this topic.
There’s always Vibe awards – if he’s lucky, he can make it to the podium and back to his table without getting shot.
that makes me want to see his movie now
Well, I, for one, absolutely refuse to attend the Oscars … or to watch it on TV!
Got nuthin to do with “Affirmative Action Awards” for Hollyweird negroes – I just find incest disgusting.
O’Shea Jackson, Sr., must be Irish like o’Bama

Oh… “you’ll want to break out your old N.W.A. albums and re-watch Boyz n the Hood and Friday, especially after Jackson exclaims, “Bye, Felicia!” ”
Sure I do
Time For Some Movie Time Affirmative Action
Now if I-Cube would just ridicule the Islamic faith he practices….
One of the most glaring omissions during the riots in Ferguson was the use of one of Niggarz with Attitudes” most popular songs…”Fuck the Police.”
Good for his observation re the Oscars, but I got nothing for him nor the filthy gangster rap which made him wealthy beyond imagination as it glorified crime, drugs, Christianity,the denigration of women and American society.
While I agree with him, I say let Hollywood drown itself in affirmative action irrelevancy. I’m sick of their “hate America” movies and attitudes–they are hypocrital and ungrateful.
Jada Pinkett Smith isn’t exactly known for her acting chops. Who the hell put her in charge?
