Ice Cube briefly paused his war on pro basketball’s gatekeepers to clash with critics on Twitter over his meeting with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Cube faced backlash for sharing a photo from their recent meeting. Twitter is divided over Ice Cube meeting controversial politician and RFK calling him influential civil rights leader. The post got 4 million views in under 3 days as users commented on the photo. Ice Cube responded quickly to the debate, denouncing endorsing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and criticized claims of selling out in a Twitter rant. “Sellout? I work for myself,” he replied. “I’m self-made. How do you feed your family??? How much do you sell your time for per hour on your job?” Chuck D defended Cube, saying, “[Cube] has gone into every one of these ‘industries’ many of the masses worship… on HIS own rule and as his OWN MAN. A game that’s twisted many into demise. Not him. Know that.”
