Ice Cube on Kanye Bringing Him Up During ‘Drink Champs’ Episode: ‘Leave My Name Out of All the Antisemitic Talk’

Ice Cube has addressed being mentioned in the latest (and since-removed) episode of Drink Champs, saying he “didn’t put the batteries” in the artist formerly known as Kanye West’s back.

In a tweet shared Tuesday, Cube said he didn’t know “what Ye meant” with regards to his remarks and urged those with such questions to direct their inquiries toward Ye himself. And while Cube himself has faced allegations of antisemitism in the past, including in connection with his support of Louis Farrakhan, Cube said he’s “never” been antisemitic.

“Please leave my name out of all the antisemitic talk,” Cube said. “I’m not antisemitic and never have been.”

Sparoh’s “Panama” Delivers a Powerful Message of Confidence and Creative Freedom

Sparoh is an Atlanta-based artist creating music at the crossroads of melodic trap, alternative pop, and punk-fueled rebellion. Equal parts vulnerable and unapologetic, her work explores identity, liberation, and the complexities of Black womanhood.Raised in the DMV on a foundation of jazz, funk, and blues, Sparoh was drawn early to artists who challenged convention and redefined what was possible.
