Joel McIver over at the UK's Quietus.com has written a great write up and interview with the Iceberg;
"You commented on Gulf War 1 and the decay of American society on the O.G. album. Two decades later, is the world a better place?
Ice T: I do believe that in my lifetime, this is the most fucked-up time yet.
Even worse than 20 years ago, with the LA riots and 'Cop Killer'?
IT: You're right. Of course, in the 80s and the early 90s there was all the police bullshit, but now we're in a global scenario. My neighbourhood was fucked-up back then, and it continues to be, but South Central wasn't worried about somebody blowing up the goddamn world, neither. So, overall it's a lot more fucked-up. Nobody trusts anybody, everybody is looking at everybody crazy. Even in England you guys are having situations, and it's not something that seems like it's ever gonna go away."
