#GreatAlbums1990s - #IceT – OG: #OriginalGangster (1991). Original though Ice-T certainly was, his “gangsta” persona was more approachable than West Coast peers like NWA. “Home of the Bodybag” scrubs the glory out of street life, while “Bitches 2” tackles misogyny by using the epithet as a metaphor for dishonorable men. The Black Sabbath sample on “Midnight” and the metal turn on “Body Count” echo Run DMC’s rap-metal while anticipating Rage ATM, et Al.
