Ice Cube Talks Football and Music
Rapper Ice Cube is in the new movie The Longshots, directed by former Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst. The movie debuts on August 22.
The film centers on Curtis Plummer (Ice Cube), who is a former high school football star, and his niece Jasmine (Keke Palmer). Curtis turns Jasmine into a star quarterback for a local team, the Minden Browns. Jasmine helps bring the team to the Pop Warner Super Bowl, where they try to re-ignite pride and glory to Minden, Illinois.
"I play football and Pop Warner I played in high school for a year, then I met Dr. Dre and stopped going to practice," said Ice Cube.
His new CD, Raw Footage, will be released only a few days before the movie on August 19.
