Ice Cube’s NSFW Response to Eric Trump’s Post Of Him and 50 Cent
As reported, 50 Cent recently posted video of Fox News talking about Joe Biden’s tax plan. The clip showed how he would raise taxes for businesses and people making $400,000 or more a year. In a series of tweets, 50 talked about the plan and told fans to “Vote For Trump.”
Afterward, Eric Trump shared a photoshopped photo of 50 Cent and Ice Cube with Trump hats on. He captioned the photo, “Two great, courageous, Americans!”

According to AP News, Ice Cube posted the original back in July, and both men had sports hats on.

It didn’t take the internet long to call Eric out on the fact that he shared a manipulated photo (and twitter flagged the post for having “manipulated media”). It also didn’t take long for Ice Cube to respond to the image. He retweeted it and Nigga please... https://t.co/1oPGAmzgvQ
To recap, last week, Ice Cube was under fire for working with the president on a “Platinum Plan” for the black community. He has since defended himself in a series of tweets and interviews.
When I got bus to school. Homies called me a sellout. When I started rapping in 1983. Bangers called me a sellout. When I left NWA. They called me a sellout. When I start doing movies. Rappers called me a sellout. When I started my own league. The arena said it was a sellout.😂

A lot of energy being spent on telling me to stay in my lane. Zero energy spent on telling Biden/Harris they need to do way more for Black people to sure up the vote. Smh

Don’t connect me with people I’m not working with. I have nothing to do with them. Far as timing, I never read your question but what would’ve been better timing for you? https://t.co/3XXLzk9MFr

Family, make sure some of these educated fools who are always telling you what to do are really Black and not Greeks in disguise.

I hope all these people with podcast and radio shows telling the world I’m too unqualified and uneducated to talk about a document I created, don’t get asked to pull out their Communications degrees and show you they are qualified and educated enough to speak to you over airwaves

Thanks for all the true understanding and support. It’s good to see so many people dedicated to the truth.
