Like a sequins hammer ...

T is fabulous! I had no idea the breadth of his vision. He reminds me of a modern-day Clay Aiken. Never one to pull punches, T will pull on your funny bone until it hurts. T's insights on gardening, wine-tasting and antiquing are refreshing and suprising with someone of T's on-screen persona. But that's just it -- in this deliciously dire read, he's telling the world, "Look, I am human and vulnerable. I hurt too. I feel lonely when it rains. I prefer kittens to pit bulls. And darnit! despite prevailing public opinion, I thought "Cheers" actually got better after Shelley Long left." Bravo T! Thanks for showing us that all former rapping and break dancing gang members are not predisposed to lives of anger and misogyny, but beauty, diet lemon-lime slice and hummingbirds.

Unapologetic insight

Hard, raw and unapologetic musings by a man obviously much smarter than his birthrights. Ice-T was a criminal in some of the worst environments ever survived in the US of A, "The Hood" of Los Angeles. He's also mellow, thoughtful and insightful; and worth listening to. He went from street thug to rapper to movie and TV star without selling out and without giving in. Good for him, good for us.

One percent nation

If you want to know, listen...Ice T speaks, for over three hours, on everything from race and racism, rap, and religion!The only other person who has anything near to the quality, scope, and thought provoking opinions set forth on this album, is the original instigator himself, Jello Biafra. Do yourself a favor; get it while it's here to be got.

Very Wide Open Book

Ice T.always comes on point on Social Issues.He doesn't second guess himself.he comes straight out with the way he sees the World & The World at Large around him.His Honesty & Directness are to the point.He is a Very Deep Thinker who wants a Better World.you have to Wonder Why a Segement of Society has to Go through so Much Negativeness?very Enlightening Book.

I LIKE THIS BOOK!

This book really influenced the way I write. Ice-T's "I don't give a fuck" attitude encouraged me to express my true feelings on paper. The part of the book where he talks about the origin of the L.A. gangs was very interesting. Ice-T is a tough philosopher in the tradition of George Jackson, Eldridge Cleaver, Iceburg Slim, KRS-One, and TuPac Shakar. A must read for rebels looking for a cause.
