Ice Cube gets TV Talk Show?

HOGWILD.NET

Rapper-turned-moviemaker Ice Cube heated up the box office as his low-budget urban comedy "Next Friday" debuted in the No. 1 slot.

Ice Cube is not the first Rapper to make his way into other realms of Entertainment. The Fresh Prince AKA Will Smith moved from Rap, to a Sitcom, to Movies. L.L. Cool J did the same. Queen Latifah and Ice T made similar moves. But Ice Cube has never been through the sitcom or talk show phase. Says the forever hard core Cube QUOTE: "I would at some point like my own TV talk show. I'll call it Nigga TV. The show topic will be "Bitches who don't know when the F^&! to Shut they Mouths." When asked what OTHER topics his show would feature, he looked puzzled and stated QUOTE: "Nah, that will be the subject of EVERY show! Bitches need to shut the f^#& up! "Nah Mean?!"

In related news, Rapper Vanilla Ice attempted similar strides. However he went from Rap Star to Circus Clown to Roadie for the band Korn.
