Calling an album GANGSTA RAP might seem like an absurd platitude coming from any rapper other than Ice-T, the undisputed originator of the genre. Ice takes time off from his acting gig on LAW & ORDER: SVU to douse listeners with a potent shot of classic ghetto storytelling and explicit recaps of O.G. sexcapades. With a host of guests (including wife Coco) and a solid boom-bap production style dusted with the requisite g-funk flourishes, Ice-T takes the nearly-self-parodying thug posturing so prevalent in 21st century hip-hop, and reminds listeners who invented the pose and why it was so deadly in the first place.
Since his late-1980s debut, Ice-T's beats and delivery style have managed to cross over to white audiences without selling out or diluting his mic control. When not making new albums or acting in movies and on TV, Ice-T sometimes leads the rap-metal group Body Count, best known for their controversial song "Cop-Killer."
