Ice-T has had an incredibly busy year—even more so than usual. In February, the multi-hyphenate received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles. Chuck D, television producer Dick Wolf, fellow SVU actress Mariska Hargitay, Ice Cube, Russell Simmons, comedian Mike Epps, Ice-T’s wife Coco and their daughter Chanel were among the many who were on deck to celebrate the prestigious honor.
The 65-year-old also launched his new podcast, Daily Game, participated in the Recording Academy’s Hip-Hop 50 celebration at the Grammys and performed several one-offs with Body Count. More recently, he teamed up with LL COOL J for the A&E TV series highlighting Hip-Hop memorabilia. Titled Hip-Hop Treasures, the show premieres on August 12 and will find the rap legends on the hunt for some of the most famous items in Hip-Hop.
Speaking to AllHipHop, Ice-T confirmed Merciless will be out in 2024, while Crime Stories should arrive by this October.
