1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,600
Speaker 1: Icey's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: is ice Tea? You're listening to the Daily Game, the

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that

4
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: I found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. Today,

5
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to drop some knowledge from the other ice

6
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 1: my man ice Cube. As far as ice Cube goes,

7
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 1: me and him started out in hip hop around the

8
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 1: same time in La He was the lead rapper in

9
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: NWA and basically the term gangster rap was coined after

10
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: ice Cube said the first lyrics to Stray Out of Compton,

11
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: where he referred to NWA as the gang called niggas

12
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 1: with attitudes, and the press said, hey, this is gangster rap,

13
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: and we all rode with it from that point on.

14
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 2: Before that, it didn't have a name.

15
00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: Ice Cube says, don't worry about being a star. Worry

16
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 1: about doing good work and all that will come to you.

17
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 2: Let me say that one more time.

18
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 1: Don't worry about being a star, Worry about doing good

19
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: work and all that will come to you. Now, somebody

20
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: told me the other day that the number one thing

21
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 1: that kids want to be today that you know and say,

22
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: what do you want to be when you grow up?

23
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,119
Speaker 1: Would you believe the number one thing kids say is famous?

24
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 1: They want to be famous. Now, what Ice Cub is

25
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: saying is don't worry about being famous. Do the work

26
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: and fame will come to you. But nowadays, with social media,

27
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: you can almost be famous without doing anything. The only

28
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: thing I can say about that is that fame doesn't last.

29
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: It's hard to sustain fame without any how would I say,

30
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: any talent behind it or any substance behind it. So

31
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: I always believed in just do the good work first.

32
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: Like right now I'm working on a new album. I'm

33
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: not so concerned with any awards or anything. I just

34
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: want to make the best album I can possibly make.

35
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 2: So do the art first.

36
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 1: Fame fortune all that will follow, if it should, if

37
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: it's supposed to do. But concentrate on making the best product,

38
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: being the best you, and you'll be surprised what will happen?

39
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: You know, I just got a star on the Walk

40
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: of Fame. That was never ever my agenda. As they say,

41
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: that was beyond my wildest dreams. But it happened because

42
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: after all these years, I guess they felt I put

43
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: in enough work to get that star. Don't worry about

44
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: being a star, worry about doing good work, and that

45
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 1: will all come to you. This has been another ice
