Hip Hop Entertainment News: Ice-T Names His Wildest Touring Story And Compares Clapbacks To Battle Rapping
Tracy Lauren Marrow, more popularly known as Ice-T, can still rock the stage with a performance of “Colors” any day. Many may have forgotten he was once one of the most prolific gangster rappers in the game. These days, he is more remembered as Detective Fin Tutuola in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. Anyway, for those who aren’t too familiar with seeing Ice-T as an artist, they’ll get a new taste of his rap skills on his track “Feds in My Rearview,” a song reportedly included on “The Foundation” compilation with Kool Keith, Tash, and Smoothe Da Hustla. The 61-year-old shared his craziest moment on tour
“The wildest was when I knocked a dude out onstage in Kansas City, Mo. N.W.A. was on the sideline and I was headlining,” he said. “I used to have this intro where I would get ready to do ‘6 In The Mornin.’ So every time I would pause for the next line some dude in the front row would yell, ‘I want to f * ck that b *tch on the album!’ He was talking about my girlfriend at the time, Darlene (who appeared on the cover of Ice-T’s classic 1988 album Power). So I told him to come up on the stage. The second he hit the stage I just knocked this motherf*c ker out. People thought it was staged [laughs].”
Even though the “New Jack Hustler” rapper isn’t knocking random fans out during his live performances anymore, his social media clap back remains as sharp as ever.
“[Laughs] One dude said to me, ‘You ain’t going to pull up on nobody.’ And I said, ‘Why pull up when I can have you brought to me in a trunk.’ People don’t know that I’m seasoned with this because clap-backing is like battle rapping.”
