He is credited with helping create [[gangsta rap]] in the late 1980s. Since 2000, he has played the role of Detective Fin Tutuola on the police procedural television series, [[Law & Order: Special Victims Unit]].<ref name="Loder">{{cite web|last=Loder|first=Kurt|title=Ice-T Points Out Gang Members In His L.A.

These tracks were later compiled on ''The Classic Collection'' and also featured on disc 2 of ''Legends of Hip-Hop''. His first song was "The Coldest Rap" in 1982. His first official [[gangsta rap]] record was "[[6 in the Mornin']]" one of the first of that sub-genre ever recorded. He said he was influenced by the [[Schoolly D]] record "P.S.K.," considered by many to be the first gangsta rap record (as it lionized the Philadelphia gang Park Side Killers). He finally landed a deal with a major label [[Sire Records]]. When label founder and president [[Seymour Stein]] heard his demo, he said, “He sounds like [[Bob Dylan]].”<ref>Coleman, Brian, ''Check the Technique: Liner Notes for Hip-Hop Junkies''. New York: Villiard/Random House, 2007. pp. 238.</ref>Shortly after, he released his debut album ''[[Rhyme Pays]]'' in 1987 supported by [[Evil E|DJ Evil E]], [[DJ Aladdin]] and producer [[Afrika Islam]], who helped create the mainly party-oriented sound; the record wound up being certified gold by the [[RIAA]]. That same year, he recorded the title theme song for Dennis Hopper's ''[[Colors (film)|Colors]],'' a film about inner-city life in Los Angeles. His next album ''[[Power (Ice-T album|Power]]'' was released in 1988, under his own label Rhyme Syndicate, and it was a more assured and impressive record, earning him strong reviews and his second gold record. Released in 1989, ''[[The Iceberg/Freedom of Speech... Just Watch What You Say]]'' established his popularity by matching excellent abrasive music with narrative and commentative lyrics.<ref name="All Music"/> In 1991 he released his album ''[[OG: Original Gangster]]'', which is regarded as one of the albums that defined gangsta rap. On ''OG'', he introduced his band [[Body Count]] in a track of the same name; Ice-T toured with Body Count on the first annual [[Lollapalooza]] concert tour in 1991, gaining him appeal among middle-class teenagers and fans of alternative music genres. The self-titled debut album by Body Count followed.<ref name="All Music"/> For his appearance on the heavily collaborative track "Back on the Block", a composition by jazz musician [[Quincy Jones]] that "attempt[ed] to bring together black musical styles from jazz to soul to funk to rap", Ice-T won a [[Grammy Award]] for the [[Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group]], an award shared by others who worked on the track including Jones and fellow jazz musician [[Ray Charles]].<ref>{{cite news|last=Pareles|first=Jon|title=Grammys Turn Into Quincy Jones Show|url=http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9D0CE2D9173EF932A15751C0A967958260&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=all|work=The New York Times|date=1991-02-23|accessdate=2008-07-02}}</ref> Controversy later surrounded Body Count over its song "Cop Killer", a song intended as a narrative from the view of a criminal killing a police officer, from the [[National Rifle Association]] and various police advocacy groups.<ref name="All Music"/> Consequently, Time Warner Music refused to release Ice-T's upcoming album ''Home Invasion'' simply because of the controversy surrounding "Cop Killer". When Ice split amicably with Sire/Warner Bros. Records after a dispute over the artwork of the album ''Home Invasion'', he reactivated Rhyme Syndicate and formed a deal with [[Priority Records]] for distribution; Priority released ''Invasion'' in the spring of 1993.<ref name="Pareles">{{cite news|last=Pareles|first=Jon|title=Ice-T's Latest Gangster-Rap Caper Finds Him Alone and on His Own|url=http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9F0CE7DD1331F93AA15750C0A965958260&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=all|work=The New York Times|date=1993-03-29|accessdate=2008-06-29}}</ref> ''Home Invasion'' ranked low in sales and critical reviews, and Ice-T's regular fanbase shifted more towards upper-class white teenagers.<ref name="All Music"/> Ice-T had also collaborated with certain other [[heavy metal]] bands during this time period. For the film ''[[Judgment Night]]'', he did a duet with band [[Slayer]] on the track "Disorder".<ref>{{cite web|last=Ruhlmann|first=William|title=Judgment Night > Overview|url=http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:3nfqxq8gldde|work=All Music Guide|accessdate=2008-07-02}}</reF> In 1995, Ice-T made a guest performance on ''[[Forbidden (Black Sabbath album)|Forbidden]]'' by the heavy metal band [[Black Sabbath]].<ref name="TVGuide"/> Another album of his, ''[[VI - Return of the Real]]'' came out in 1996, followed by ''[[The Seventh Deadly Sin]]'' in 1999.<ref name="CNN Seventh Deadly Sin">{{cite news|last=Freydkin|first=Donna|title=No thaw for rapper Ice T|url=http://www.cnn.com/SHOWBIZ/Music/9910/27/ice.t/index.html|publisher=CNN|date=1999-10-27|accessdate=2008-06-29}}</ref> His first rap album since 1999, ''[[Gangsta Rap (album)|Gangsta Rap]]'', was released on [[October 31]], [[2006]]. The album's cover, which "shows [Ice T] lying on his back in bed with his ravishing wife's ample posterior in full view and one of her legs coyly draped over his private parts," was considered to be too suggestive for most retailers, many of which were reluctant to stock the album.<ref>{{cite news |first= |last= |authorlink= |author= |coauthors= |title=''Page Six'': STORES HOT OVER ICE-T COVER |url=http://www.nypost.com/seven/10182006/gossip/pagesix/pagesix.htm |format= |work=New York Post |publisher= |id= |pages= |page= |date=2006-10-18 |accessdate=2007-09-22 |language= |quote= |archiveurl= |archivedate=}}</ref> Some reviews of the album were unenthusiastic, as many had hoped for a return to the political raps of Ice-T's most successful albums. One of the last scenes in [[Gift (film)]] includes [[Ice-T]] and [[Body Count]] playing with [[Jane's Addiction]] in a version of the [[Sly and the Family Stone]] song "Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey." Besides fronting his own band, Ice-T has also collaborated with other [[hard rock]] and metal bands, such as [[Icepick (band)|Icepick]], [[Motörhead]], [[Pro-Pain]], and [[Six Feet Under (band)|Six Feet Under]]. He has also covered songs by [[hardcore punk]] bands such as [[The Exploited]], [[Jello Biafra]], and [[Black Flag (band)|Black Flag]]. ===Acting career=== Ice-T debuted as an actor in the films ''[[Breakin']]'' and ''[[Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo]]'' in 1984, only two years after his first 12" ("The Coldest Rap," 1982) appeared. In 1991, he embarked onto a serious acting career, playing a police detective in [[Mario Van Peebles]]' feature film ''[[New Jack City]]'', gang leader King James in ''[[Trespass (film)|Trespass]]'' (1992), followed by a notable lead role performance in ''[[Surviving the Game]]'' in addition to his many supporting roles, such as J-Bone in ''[[Johnny Mnemonic]]'' (1995), and the marsupial mutant T-Saint in ''[[Tank Girl (film)|Tank Girl]]'', 1995. Ice-T was also interviewed in the Brent Owens documentary ''Pimps Up, Ho's Down'',<ref name="All Movie">{{cite web|last=Buchanan|first=Jason|title=Ice-T > Biography|url=http://www.allmovie.com/cg/avg.dll?p=avg&sql=2:34312~T1|work=All Movie Guide|date=2003|accessdate=2008-07-02}}</ref> in which he is quoted as saying "I can't act, I really can't act", and raps at the [[Players Ball]]. In 1993 Ice-T along with other rappers and the three ''[[Yo! MTV Raps]]'' hosts [[Ed Lover]], [[Doctor Dre]] and [[Fab 5 Freddy]] starred in the comedy ''[[Who's the Man?]]'' directed by [[Ted Demme]].In this movie Ice is a drug dealer who gets really frustrated when someone calls him by his real name "Chauncey" rather than his street name "Nighttrain". In 1995 he had a recurring role as vengeful drug dealer Danny Cort on the television series ''[[New York Undercover]]'', which was co-created by [[Dick Wolf]]. In 1997, Ice-T co-created the short-lived series ''[[Players (1997 TV series)|Players]]'', which was produced by Wolf. These two collaborations led Wolf to add Ice-T to the cast of ''[[Law & Order: Special Victims Unit]]'', where the rapper has portrayed a former undercover gang member, transferred to the Special Victims Unit, Detective [[Fin Tutuola]] since 2000, whose character ironically says he is a [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican]]. Ice-T also appeared in the ''Law & Order'' universe as pimp Seymour "Kingston" Stockton in [[Exiled: A Law & Order Movie]]. His participation in this show is ironic, given the early controversy surrounding his group [[Body Count]] with their song "[[Cop Killer (song)|Cop Killer]]". Ice-T also appears in the movie ''[[Leprechaun: In the Hood]]''. He once was presenter on Channel 4's ''Baaadasss TV''. In 1999, Ice-T starred in the [[HBO]] movie ''[[Stealth Fighter]]'' as a [[United States]] [[Naval Aviator]] who fakes his own death, steals a [[F-117]] [[stealth fighter]] and threatens to destroy [[United States]] [[military bases]]. This movie is often criticized for its poor script, military inaccuracies, and significant use of footage from other movies.<ref name="BadMovies">{{cite web |url=http://www.badmovies.org/movies/stealthfighter |title=Stealth Fighter |accessdate= |accessmonthday= |accessdaymonth= |accessyear= |author=Andrew Borntreger |last=borntreger |first=andrew |authorlink=http://www.badmovies.org/contact.html |coauthors= |date= |year= |month= |format= |work= |publisher=BadMovies.com |pages= |language= |doi= |archiveurl= |archivedate= |quote=}}</ref> Ice-T voiced [[Madd Dogg]] in the video game ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]'' as well as Agent Cain in Sanity: Aiken's Artifact. He also appears as himself in ''[[Def Jam: Fight for NY]]'' and ''[[UFC: Tapout]]'' fighting video games. Ice-T made an appearance on ''[[Chappelle's Show]]'' as himself presenting the award for "Player Hater of the Year." He was dubbed the "Original Player Hater." At [[WrestleMania 2000]], Ice-T performed his song "[[WWF Aggression|Pimpin Ain't Easy]]" during [[Charles Wright (wrestler)|The Godfather]] and [[D'Lo Brown]]'s entrance. He also played as Hamilton in a 2001 thriller film named [[3000 Miles to Graceland]]. ''Beyond Tough'', a 2002 documentary series aired on [[Discovery Channel]] about the world's most dangerous and intense professions, such as alligator wrestlers and Indy 500 pit crews, was hosted by Ice-T.<ref>{{cite web|last=Salazar-Moreno|first=Quibian|title=Ice-T Hosts New Show 'Beyond Tough'|url=http://web.archive.org/web/20070809012028/http://www.sohh.com/articles/article.php/3854|work=SOHH|date=2002-07-16|publisher=Internet Archive Wayback Machine|accessdate=2008-07-02}}</ref> In 2007, he appeared as a celebrity guest star on the [[MTV]] sketch comedy show ''[[Short Circuitz]]''. Also in late 2007, Ice-T appeared in the short-music film "Hands of Hatred" which can be found online. ===Reality television=== On October 20, 2006 Ice-T's Rap School aired and was a reality television show on VH1. It was a spin-off of the British reality show Gene Simmons' Rock School, which also aired on VH1. In Rap School, rapper/actor Ice-T teaches eight teens from York Preparatory School in New York City how to become a real hip-hop group called the "York Prep Crew" ( "Y.P. Crew" for short). Each week, Ice-T gives them assignments and they compete for an imitation gold chain with a microphone on it. On the season finale on November 17, 2006, the group performed as an opening act for Public Enemy. Ice-T also made an appearance on NBC’s new game show "[[Celebrity Family Feud]]" on June 24th 2008. In the show Ice-T and Coco teamed up in a competition against Joan and Melissa Rivers to compete for their favorite charity. The Rivers family won their round. ==Political views== He has condemned the alleged involvement of the [[Central Intelligence Agency]] in drug trafficking (in connection with the Iran-Contra scandal, as documented in the [[Kerry Committee report]] and elsewhere<ref>"U.S. Concedes Contras Linked to Drugs, But Denies Leadership Involved," Associated Press (17 April 1986).</ref>) on tracks such as "This One's for Me" and "Message to the Soldier", and in sections of his book. Although usually on the political left, he was criticized for [[misogyny]] in his lyrics, and this has deterred some liberals from supporting him. In ''The Ice Opinion'', he claimed that he was a feminist insofar as he believed in equal pay for women and equal rights generally. He argued against the position that being a stripper or a model is demeaning to women by an analogy with a man who considers a gay man to be demeaning all men by his actions, arguing that if the latter feeling is untenable, the former is as well. The track "Escape from the Killing Fields" expressed a difference in views from rappers like [[Chuck D]], [[Redman (rapper)|Redman]] and [[Ice Cube]] in that Ice-T did not see any virtue in staying in the [[ghetto]], but rather encouraged Black people to leave the ghetto. The last track on ''O.G. Original Gangster'' is a spoken-word opposition to the [[Gulf War]] and to poor conditions in prisons. After ''[[Born Dead]]'' in 1994, Ice-T's music has contained much less political commentary than before. In 1994, Ice-T wrote a book titled ''The Ice Opinion: Who Gives a Fuck?''.<ref name="IceOpinion"/> The purpose of the 199-page book was to respond to questions about his political beliefs, his life and the controversy surrounding his music. Having often voiced controversial statements about corruption, he goes into detail about his suspicions of police/CIA involvement in drug trafficking and of how certain businesses profit from prison-building. The ten chapters are: * The Jungle Creed * The Killing Fields * Crime and Punishment * Men, Women and Sex * Rap: the art of Shit Talkin' * Religion: One Percent Nation * Racism * Riots and Revolution * The Controversy * The Future / No Fear ==Controversy== On June 17, 2008, Ice T appeared on DJ Cisco's Urban Legend mixtape, speaking against [[Soulja Boy]] and [[Hurricane Chris (rapper)|Hurricane Chris]] in correlation of Hip-Hop's criticized status: ''“Fuck Soulja Boy! Eat a dick! This nigga single handedly killed Hip Hop. That shit is such garbage man. We came all the way from Rakim, we came all the way from Das EFX, we came all the way from motherfuckers flowing like Big Daddy Kane and Ice Cube, and you come with that Superman shit? That shit is garbage. Hurricane (Chris) take them fucking beads out of your hair nigga! Man up. You niggas is making me feel real fucking mad about this shit.”'' On June 23, 2008, Ice T responded to Soulja Boy's video response, where he apologised against Hurricane Chris for the comments, saying that the comments were made 'in anger' and that Hurricane isn't really in the beef. As for Soulja Boy, Ice-T apologised for the 'eat a dick'-comment, but continued to state that Soulja Boy's music is garbage. He also makes it clear that he isn't trying to set off a war against the [[Southern Rap|Dirty South]]. Instead, he said: ''“If any war (is going to start), it's gonna be good hip-hop versus whack hip-hop, you understand what i'm saying? And if there has to be a war on that battlefield, i'm proud to be the general, nigga.”''<ref>http://www.livesteez.com/videos/watch/zb7TI5H</ref><ref>http://www.livesteez.com/videos/watch/T2MeIrP</ref>. ==Discography== {{main|Ice T discography}} *1987: ''[[Rhyme Pays]]'' *1988: ''[[Power (Ice T album)|Power]]'' *1989: ''[[The Iceberg/Freedom of Speech...Just Watch What You Say]]'' *1991: ''[[O.G.
