Ice Cube is an incredibly talented and successful creator and entrepreneur, which gives him the freedom to say more than some other celebrities might. If he’s beholden to no one and answers to no one but himself, then he doesn’t have to worry about what his handlers might think about the things he says. And so he’s been rather outspoken in his personal views, some of which diverge from the approved Leftist narrative, especially considering the (decidedly racist) identity politics expectations Democrats have for black men. Notably, he praised some of Donald Trump’s proposed economic plans to improve economic and entrepreneurial opportunities in black communities.
And now, he’s telling people what he really thinks about the COVID-19 vaccinations and the attempts to coerce people to get them. In an interview with the cast of the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast, Ice Cube was asked if he had any movies in the works. His response might surprise some. He said that he’s working on some things but then explained,
“I turned down a movie because I didn’t want to get the m*****f****** jab, you know, turned down $9 million because I didn’t want to get the jab. You know, f*** that jab and f*** y’all for trying to make me get it! So, you know, I don’t know how Hollywood feel about me right now, you know what I’m saying?”

Ice Cube is lucky that he, like champion tennis star Novak Djokovic, basketball star Kyrie Irving, and a few others, are in a financial position to be able to refuse a vaccination they did not want or felt they did not need. So many Americans did not have the same privilege. When employers adopted unconstitutional vaccine mandates and threatened employees with the loss of their jobs if they did not comply, those employees had no option but to comply, whether they wanted this particular medical treatment or not. Millions of people were forced, through social or occupational coercion, to subject their body to a medical treatment they either did not want or did not need. So it’s meaningful when people who can refuse and want to refuse do so publicly to remind the country that forcing unwanted medical treatments on people isn’t the way we do things in the United States of America.
