“It’s a blessing, really. For one, I made a promise to myself when I got in this business that I wouldn’t let it change who I am as a person, so I was always willing to let the chips fall where they may and not worry about ‘I can’t do this or my career will be over’ or ‘if I do this, will this happen?’“When you broke when you’re starting off, going back to being broke is not an issue. That’s not motivation, like ‘I’m going to be broke again, let me bow down to this bullshit.’ No.”
Ice Cube’s journey in the music industry has been marked by unwavering authenticity and a dedication to his craft. Fans can eagerly anticipate the release of ‘Man Down,’ a testament to his enduring passion for music and his unyielding commitment to remaining true to himself.
