Through the lens of a musician, Ice-T is infamous for using the sound as a weapon to call on justice. His era-defining 1992 track, “Cop Killer” shook up the concerns for government officials including President Bush. In light of the murder George Floyd who died after a Minneapolis Police officer pressed a knee into his neck while being pinned to the ground, Ice-T took to Twitter to speak out about the injustice in police brutality.
Before being permanently silenced, Floyd repeatedly told the officer “I can’t breath” during the arrest.
