Ice Cube is someone not to mess with. The West Coast icon recently clashed with a fan over his new partnership with Elon Musk’s X platform.
Ice Cube hits back at fans about collaborating with Elon Musk
Last Wednesday (March 20), Ice Cube officially announced on X (formerly Twitter) that his popular 3-on-3 professional basketball league BIG3 will launch its seventh season on June 15. A few days later, fans began posting questions to Cooper about his basketball league.
Last Thursday (March 22), a fan asked Ice Cube on X why his league was not broadcast live on the Rumble channel, and he responded: “Because we are on X… Better ask someone. “
This prompted another X user, @UltimateRapLife, to question Cube’s business decision to partner with X owner Musk.
“Love and respect Cooper, but what we need to know is his alliance with white supremacy. I understand money matters, and so do you, my guy. Just keep it 100 and don’t install a trojan horse for them. White supremacy is who you are. , rep. Enjoy!!” the fan wrote in his post, which can be viewed below.
Cooper heard the fan criticism and responded angrily.
“Shut up, you asshole! I don’t line up for anything, punk. I draw my own f**kin line,” he shot back.

Don’t call Ice Cube a “goat”
This isn’t the first time Ice Cube has lost his temper with fans.
Last September, Cube had to correct a fan on X who wanted to pay tribute to him by calling him a “GOAT,” an abbreviation for athletes, musicians and public figures who have achieved great things in their fields.
But the rap veteran didn’t appreciate the fans’ gesture of honor.
“For those who think this flatters me, please don’t call me a damn goat. Go ahead,” Cooper wrote in his post, which can be viewed below.
Cooper later clarified: “Don’t get me wrong. I appreciate the respect, but don’t call me that.”
