Tracy Marrow (born February 16, 1958), better known by his stage name Ice-T, is an American rapper and actor. He was born in Newark, New Jersey and moved to Los Angeles, California. After graduating from high school, he served in the United States Army for four years. He began his career as a rapper in the 1980s and was signed to Sire Records in 1987, when he released his debut album Rhyme Pays. The next year, he founded record label Rhyme Syndicate and released another album, Power. He became the lead vocalist in rap metal band Body Count, which he introduced in his 1991 album O.G.: Original Gangster. Body Count released its self-titled debut album in 1992. Ice-T encountered controversy over his track "Cop Killer", which was perceived to glamorize killing police officers. Because of this, he left Warner Bros. Records in 1993 and released his album Home Invasion through Priority Records instead. Body Count's next album was released in 1994, and Ice-T released two more albums in the late 1990s.
As an actor, Ice-T began starring in minor roles in two films during the mid-1980s. In 1991, Ice-T formally began his acting career as an actor in the film New Jack City. Ice-T also starred in films such as Who's the Man? (1993), CB4 (1993), Tank Girl (1995), and Johnny Mnemonic (1995). He has played Detective Odafin "Fin" Tutuola on the NBC police drama Law & Order: Special Victims Unit since 1999. In 2006, Ice-T released his first album in seven years, Gangsta Rap. - Hudba
in my opinion ICE Ts best track ever.
💯
Best MC 4ever
He played himself!
Agreed
his worst track ever
Majority of people dissing ice.t probably weren't even born in this era. Step off fools. Old skool is where its at.
Indeed!
THEY LISTEN TO THE MANS RAPPERS WHO SEND YOU TO THE GRAVE, OR PRISON. F GAME AND YOUNG THUG !
+TheNorthman1957 lol
Gary Smart true ! They don have a clue 😎.
@@marshallsmith361 none!!!
James Brown - The Boss
Like him or hate him, Ice-T told the truth the way it is. These alleged up-and-coming rappers need to really pay attention and pay hommage to innovators like Ice-T. He paved the way and he deserves respect for that.
Today wack ass trap hip hop garbage shit
Facts!!
To me - one of the greatest rap songs ever
All fax
"All you need is Boogie Down and Chuck D, Stetsasonic or the Big Daddy. " Ice -T was giving props to the New York rappers Boogie Down Productions , KRS-1 included, Chuck D of Public Enemy, the rap group Stetsasonic and Big Daddy Kane. True Hip Hop heads know the real pioneers.
U ALWAYS GOTTA PAY HOMAGE TO THE EAST COAST WHERE IT ALL BEGAN🙅🏾♂️
Righttt!👍
@@kintarricrawford4976 Yep Hip Hop started in The Bronx, New York.
@@russelladams7134 Dont forget Ice T was born in New Jersey
Ice T always gave love since his NJ roots, he had problems with LL Cool J and some NY cats
Ice-T + James Brown = legendary track.
this is still one of my favorite ice-t tracks
MINE TOO
that sample..fantastic...james brown.
2020 and still dope as a mutha..OG with some serious past
Ice got too many hits to go over, but this is one of my All time favorites with reason! This song made me straighten my self up when I was in grade school, blaming everything and everyone else for my failures to do my assignments. Then I realized I was playing myself with all them weak ass excuses I was making.
Old post but FACTS ☝🏿💪🏿
Wow that’s what’s up ! Lol learned early !
Darlene Was a dime before they coined the term ! 😈
Man I love the track 1st, but i come to see her too!
50 YEARS OF HIP HOP THANK YOU 08/2023😊
The first verse predicted Hip Hop in the 21st century.
The second and third verses are universal; they are timeless.
Still revenant to this day.
Say it again ☝🏿
Props to Ice-T from Russia. Back in the days when i was a schoolboy i bought Power album on cassete. I didnt understand sh1t what Ice were saying i just rolled witta a flow and loved the music. Now i know.
Dope bro he is, i from australia got this tape wen i was 16 changed my life love da dude and metallica rock on rap on ozzie ozzie ozzie oi oi oi
Pleše do Ford is
If you never liked this tune it's probably because ...you played yourself.
Life lessons from the Ice Man. Smooth. Don't play yaself!
Ice T been around for a long time. Really a OG💯
Triple OG Ice T!!! And Darlene!!! Shake it baby!!! I still remember the album cover she was on from his album POWER. Boy she was a winner!!!
That cover was fiyah! 🔥🔥🔥
Horns, thumping bass and super ICE COLD FACTS
This song is relevant today! #timeless
This should have 226 Million views, not 226K.
This is why wu ...boot camp mobb deep , nas goodie mob , outkast and 90s hip hop was so great this there blueprint was Ice T , BDP, PE, Lakim shabbaz. ....ultramagnetic MC, Juice crew..
This is my theme song to one of my cousins who goes in and out of jail, but it's everyone else fault.
TWO OF MY EXES
DON'T STOP LOVING THE dude.
Ppl be sleeping 😴 on Ice T rapping skills
Ice T NEVER lied when he said that you can't buy no relationship because my young cousin was telling me and my Uncles that if you dont spend at least $50 on a 1st date, then you're getting kicked to the curb and I told my 92 year old mentor friend and he replied, " That means that she wasn't interested from the get go". More important things to worry about and there's too much trouble in the world to be worried about some woman that doesn't give a damn.
This should have millions of Views
Ice T knows what he's talking about.
15 suckers and players down voted.. You played yourself..
20 and counting
Word!!!
Lord Finesse - Bad Mutha 🔥
His first album was fire!!! Of course dj premire was on the production side!!!
Classic cut!!!
Saw Ice at Glasgow Barrowlands in 91 on the Iceberg tour. He had Brixton's Hi-Jack supportin he'd signed to Rhyme Syndicate. What a show, these were the days, this was hip hop 👊💥
Too many oldskool OG's out here ended up washed up BC they weren't real to the game (disloyal) & true to themselves (faking it).
"Don't blame anyone else ... No money no crew ... You played yourself ! ."...
This must be Ice-T, one of the best
NAS.. GET DOWN .. THE GODSON ALBUM.. CRAZINESS
Try James Brown kid.
@@mightydoe ORIGINAL
Ice T is the Original Gangster… He was pushing too much knowledge for anyone to handle back in the day.. Ice T is a Chosen One..
drop science now why not! classic
That's right...ya played yaself...
this should be shown to every elementary school every fck week to children. Let them learn from the best! Respect Ice-T
Agreed can apply this to life period.Mfs hate to look it the mirror and accept responsibly,he just used what he knew his base could understand for the message.Real talk though High Rollers changed the outlook on the game
'Nobody put the crack into the pipe.
Nobody made you smoke off your life.
You thought that you could do drugs and stay cool?
FOOL.
You played yourself.
Ain't Nobody else's fault. You Played Yourself.'
One of the hardest,realistic lyrics I've ever heard. ICE T gave it to us straight, no chaser.🧐👊🏽🙏🏽
Ain't nobody else's fault... ya played yaself!
This shit was real. Dropping knowledge. Yes may never hear hip hop artists push music with these types of messages again. This was actually the original intention of rap music. To teach the youth about the pitfalls of life on different levels.
Facts. Rap Music was teaching, not preaching. That's one of the many reasons why it was so Powerful. When it became watered down and glorification of violence and sexual immorality began, it went downhill fast. The rap music off today is just a pitiful imitation of what it once was.🧐😔🙏🏽
Yup then came gangsta rap...which I love. But I see whachu mean
my favorite ice t track by far
' You thought you could do dope and still stay cool... Fool!' Tell em Ice!!
Zero dislikes good no one played their self real rap and I'm only 24 ma dad bumps Ice t still
I love this in addition to many of his songs like “Drama” and “Escape From The Killing Fields.” Ice T knew to get knowledge/educated, stay true to yourself, and give props to those who came before. He didn't front, step or play.
Three greats used this beat, Ice Tea, Nas, and Lupe, i hope who ever uses beat next better not mess it up.
I had no idea this song existed until I heard it on an underground radio station I had no idea who rapped it I just typed in played yourself and it came up im so greatful this is real rap and I love it I don't give a fuck if its ''old'' ice t has something to say most hip pop guys don't
When my dad was in my life. Any time i made a mistake he would say... You played yourself😂😂😂
Darlene is smoking hot.
Ice T is 100% REAL......just listen and learn✌
She is 100x better than coco
that little dance she do is the best part of the video!
@@ctb3386 where is she now?
@@ramondobrown1162 she doing a radio show and still looks good she a little more thicker now
still the BEST rapper ever
CLASSIC VIDEO
Triple O.G.
I spent 5 hours on a video game, I played myself
Underrated Raper in the 80s & early 90s! His albums are full of rhymes and hits!
pimp of da year 1998
My favorite Ice T track!! First time I heard it was on DJ Red Alert show, 98.7 Kiss fm in New York.
Just heard this song on MTV classic's. It didnt sound good at first but when you listen to the lyrics you realized that There is a lot of Truth to this song. He done good with this!
That and the beat. James Brown paid the cost to be the boss. Youngster.
...didnt sound good at first? 🤯
The hook is immaculate 💫💥
Thank YOU Godfather James Brown! Many ate off THE Plate you prepared for your people !
Augusta my home wherever I rom.
Yes!
Loved ICE T'S Raw Uncut Style
Ice t. Ripped the hell outta that beat
Sitting in coventry uk still choooning this shit in me front room xx
Remember hearing this on Radio 1, Jeff Young's Big Beat Show in 1990
red miniskirt would still be hot now a days. lol
THE BOSS james brown sample!
Listen to this track, you might learn somethin.
Classic Old Skool Real Shit
Nuff Said
So nobody is going to acknowledge the fact that the word fool is a whole line in itself? 😂😂😂
The point of leaving Ice's commentary puts forward the argument that it's up to each and every one of you as to how your lives play out. Simply put - Ice says "dont do dumb shit..."
2020 still one of the best
This video is for #45 and his Cabinet.
Icet is the man
This is it, dope from the fly kid.
The Ice mic is back with the high bid.
Thank - you . ( 2023 / Mar / 07 )
Criminally UNDERATED!!! Hail to the O.G. Mackdaddy original supafly dope shit!!!
now this is fo real,,, The IceBerg video!!! had the studio session "whatcha gonna do?" on my ole account but got busted daamn warner mang,,,,,enjoy this classic,, ya played yaself
Ice T always dropped PURE jewels of wisdom. He's the difference between a selfish scumbag who will lead young kids wrong and into a life that will either kill them, land them in prison, or in the ground, and an older, wiser street dude who quietly encourages younger kids to take a good look around, think, stay off the street, or eventually the street will get you. Ice is and has always been the latter. 💯 Solid brother.🤛
Next on your Mix Tape: You're Gonna Get Yours (PE 98-O)
this is one of da best. ya played yourself
Tracy ICE TTTTT

After all these years these Lil fools still out here playing themselves!
true master --- new jack hustler .....livin legend

Words of wisdom!!💯
Raps like this gotta get million likes
He’s a Legend all the way!

Classic track, dropping knowledge over a smoothed out beat, Salute!!...Have to give Darlene a shout out too!!

There Should Be A Bio About Ice T.
I'm waiting on that! & they BETTER put his song with Body Count "Cop Killer" in it!
All the females who ever cheated on a solid good man: This song is for you....You know who you are.....wink.
Awesome album - this song deals with blowing it as an M.C., womaniser and drug taker.
A masterclass in lyrics that actually mean something - keeps him above the usual dross.
Definitely old school
Great classic....
I like this tune. First time listening to this somehow. 0-0
And ride the track like a black mackin' in his 'lac, hit the corner slow where the girls are at!
Knowledge and Facts!
One of the best Songs ever. Classic tune by Ice.
