Black Writer On How To Write An Alluring Villain and a Dynamic Black, Female Hero
On Friday, (Sept. 20) Owens tweeted: “Gangster rap was never black culture. It was created by the Feds, who proffered deals to homosexual black men in prison and then turned them into artificial celebrities. The goal was to create false idols to destroy black American values. I will never change my mind on this.”

Her post post garnered over 100,000 likes and somehow found its way to Ice Cube — N.W.A. rap legend and one of gangsta rap’s progenitors — who replied to set the record straight. “We called it Reality Rap. The industry coined it Gangsta Rap,” Cube stated.
“The fans wanted gangsta rap and that’s what they got. The Feds didn’t write none of my shit. I’m a real MC.” As fans pointed out on the app, Ice Cube has a history of speaking on the controversial genre of music and has spread his own theories about rap.
Ice Cube EXPOSES the Prison Industrial Complex
In 2023, Cube appeared on the “Club Random with Bill Maher” podcast where he stated that the “same people who on the labels, own the prisons.” However, the emcee later clarified this sentence during the interview.
“They’re not actually running the labels, they have financial interests,” Cube explained when addressing the music industry and the prison industrial complex.
He then elaborated on the 1988 song “F**k Tha Police” by N.W.A. with Maher about how writing lyrics for songs like that “might get somebody arrested and sent to prison.”
“That’s just one example, one record that the record company did not manipulate, you know. That’s pure artistry.”
Folks have speculated on who is pulling the strings in rap for decades, so Owens theory is really nothing new. However, she should never, ever, ever, ever be taken seriously.
