Accountability Quote by Ice T

“It's like a paradox. For one side, being popularized rap…” quote by Ice T — Download Open image

“It's like a paradox. For one side, being popularized rap got better and the other side of it got worse. It's very pop and it's very different now. When you make it as pop and as soft as it is, it lacks its integrity. It lacks its accountability. It lacks a lot of other things that came from that dangerous time in hip hop.”
