Cube just said something awesome… he said he doesn’t get how the NBA thinks his league is they’re competition… that proves that at times “them folk” know more about our potential than we do. They know that if somebody as influential as Ice Cube starts a league with African Americans at the center it will become absolutely successful very quickly!

Much respect to Ice Cube and the Big 3 organization. The NBA cannot afford your concept to be successful. However, they cannot stop your concept due to its being already sucessful and people know the players in the Big 3 program will do their part in ensuring its success. With venues inplace to advertise your program KEEP MOVING FORWARD. We will support whenever and wherever we can.

Cube is the true GOAT of the HipHop generation. Even J with his billion didn't do what Cube has been able to do.

We're so hung up on titles. People are just people. I will Talk to them. Wow simple yet powerful statement.

Ice Cube is a legend I didn't know he was young when he started 15 WOW I thought he was over 18 when he got with Dre and NWA. I agree with his comment "F your title" you are still human. Fear NO man!

I grew up up listening to Cube's music and watching his movies. It's no surprise the same social issues he had during his youth that he rapped about in his songs is the same we have in today's society.

Been following this pod for a while much ❤ Been through many moments in life . 45 years old my son got jumped by a gang of 8 that wanted his UFC cap and at 15 quite big for his age and standing out they gave him a beating 😢 A pivot moment for me was driving round with a baseball bat trying to find any of these kids and being thankful I never did 🙏🏽

The Big3 is so necessary, it’s the ultimate transition into retirement. So many benefits to this league, especially at a time when players are at the most challenging moments in their lives. Many players search to find themselves while figuring out what’s next. Mentally, emotionally, these guys can transition into a place they can thrive. Adam Silver should get onboard and support these efforts in some sort of capacity. Ice Cube is on to something

Yo like Sonny said in the Bronx Tale "you got rid of him for twenty dollars out of your life." Cube didn't realize that's father telling him I got greater thing's for you to come.

Cube was the first one smart enough and brave enough to leave NWA. He knew they were not getting paid enough and he knew the value of his talent. Dre made a lot of money in his career but none of them were as successful as Cube. Respect.

My dudes never disappoint!!!!!! Got the man ICE Cube 🧊 😊

It was a good day is THE most classic/influential hip hop song off ALL TIME!!! My 5yr old son can damn near single every bar! Salute to this positive podcast n to you to Cube for being a inspiration to me and my 3 boys. Keep doing wat u doing fellas! Salute 💯

CUBE is simply a LEGEND. And I don't say that lightly.

Much respect to cube and the Big 3! He's one of the greatest gangster rappers

I love the fact he called it a "plandemic". A lot of us felt the exact same way. Ice Cube is one of the greatest lyricist of all time. Once again, great interview by the guys. The best interviews out there, period!!!

All of Cube's interviews are 🔥!!!

I love his personality, very humble, Wise, and intelligent.. @ICE CUBE FOREVER‼️

Can't wait to hear this talk. Cube is a legend in Hip Hop & film 📽️. Love how he stands on principle & speaks the uncomfortable truths too.

Thank You Mr Jackson for caring enough to spark a conversation, Unfortunately we can't ever come together as a people🙏💕

Letttss Fuckin Go!!! Cube is the man, absolute legend & one of the best gangster rappers

This was incredible to watch as they focused on the man as a whole and the many parts of ice cube the father, the rapper, the actor, the producer, the advocate, the business man etc.

Amazing show as usual. Love Cube, Love you guys!! Black excellence at its finest!

Great episode. I love Cube and have since I was a little Mexican kid growing up in Cali. I always loved hip hop but when NWA/Cube came out he spoke about the things I saw in my neighborhood. Much love and respect to the Don Mega💪🏽

Ice all about respect, no shucking and jiving. Pivot another TD!

Your potential is what they’re scared of Mr. Cube! Soon 20-30 years down the road it will most definitely be their competition in the future.

The realest thing Cube said was "Make the most of your opportunities". Doing everything to the best of your abilities truly is what opens additional doors. I'm from the GUTTER (mom shot and killed dad, foster care, lived in cars, you name it). I only have a GED, and spent from 14-26 doing landscaping. I did it WELL. At 26, I got a job working for Crystal Springs water delivery company. 6yrs in, I won Route Sales Rep of the year for the entire company. The next year, I was promoted to management, and received 2 more promotions in the following 4yrs. Fast forward to today, and I'm the Chief Operating Officer for the firm I work for now (which came from a relationship I formed at Crystal Springs). I never dreamed that a forgotten foster kid would become a comfortable 6 figure earner with equity in the company I run. Hard work wins in the long run. We have power to forge our own paths 💯

Ice Cube continue to do what you do to save & change lives. It’s a gift from God my brother.

Cube is a deep, versitile brother, he always drops wisdom and knowlege on a very real and direct level. Thanks bro, good footage Pivot!!

Ice Cube in my opinion is the best gangsta rapper of all time. I'll never forget when me and my homies bought his first solo abum he did with The Bomb Squad/Public Enemy. Instant classic!

I don't know if it's the same with other songs, either from Ice Cube or by other music artists, but, every time "It was a Good Day" is mentioned, I automatically start rapping the lyrics. It's a good song.

14:17 I got my current job the same way. I was cleaning at Comp Cams warehouse, very well known camshaft company. The manager noticed I was always in a good mood, I came to work on time everyday, whatever they needed I was happy to take care of & one day he offered me a job. I’m Not a billionaire but the opportunity definitely put me in a better position.

Cube wouldn't be sitting here today as one of the greatest to ever do it had he not left NWA. You just could see NWA on the verge on breaking up when money disputes took place. Cube felt he wasn't getting his fair share and he split from the group. Even Dre was getting more than him and Dre was their DJ and producer at that time not a rapper.

CUBE IS A PERSON I CAN HEAR TALK ANY DAY!!💪🏽👏🏽💯
