Before Ice-T's success acting in film and television made him a formidable prime-time presence, the artist was a major innovative force in hip-hop. Recognized for his vivid lyrics about inner-city violence, the rapper broke out in 1987, earning a gold record with his debut Rhyme Pays, as well as major acclaim for "Colors," the title song he wrote for Dennis Hopper's film about L.A. gangs. Between 1986 and 1991, Ice recorded four albums for Warner Bros. Records, including the West Coast rap classics Power and O.G. Original Gangster as well as the debut album from his highly influential metal band Body Count.GREATEST HITS includes 15 remastered tracks drawn almost entirely from his four studio albums: Rhyme Pays (1987), Power (1988), The Iceberg/Freedom of Speech…Just Watch What You Say (1989), and O. G. Original Gangster (1991). The collection begins with "6 'n The Mornin'," the song that helped get Ice-T signed to a major label in 1986. The rest of the album is packed with fan favorites like, "I'm Your Pusher," "You Played Yourself," "Body Count" and "New Jack Hustler (Nino's Theme)" a song that earned Ice-T a Grammy nomination in 1992. In addition to album cuts, GREATEST HITS also features two songs selected from film soundtracks: "Colors" and "Ricochet," the title song to the 1992 crime-thriller that featured Ice-T acting alongside Denzel Washington.
ICE MF TEA. That's the rallying cry so get on board or pop open a can of Lipton cause this is some hardcore stuff. He's an actor, rapper, is there anything ICE-T can't do. Of course, the answer to that question is no. The man can do anything as this greatest hits selection demonstrates. His rhymes are legendary as this CD proves. So crank it up and grab a 40.
