Any Body Counters in the house ?

Body Count is a project from Ice-T formed to reach out to metal fans and deliver hard hitting rap / metal fusion to span the genres.
I saw them in the 90s at a fairly small venue and they blew my mind , pretty much blew my eardrums too as I believe they were the loudest band I've ever heard.

Body Count's in the house


KKK Bitch


My favourite Body count song , Born Dead.


A mellow moment , Hey Joe.

I could hear that song a million more times and would still love it , Hendrix was a genius.

No disrespect. to your thread (or that bit of colored cloth called a flag).

Ode to Hendrix is more subdued, but cant hold a candle to the org.

Neither can "Heavy Metal" hold a cover to his performance at Woodstock. Hendrix invented the genre.

Vietnam war protest 'song'. Innoculation against the disease of endless war.

I loved the debut album. Ice T had a rawness that really appealed to me as a teenager. I still listen to his solo stuff and BC every now and then. I've seen far worse actors in the biz too. Even his haters have to admit the man is diversely talented. Just to be fair, he is a bit of a sellout though.

I agree , he has become part of the establishment he once railed against , can't help but admire a kid from the wrong side of the tracks made good though
The debut Body count album was supreme , it still makes the blood pump even today.

Maybe a precursor to rage against the machine?

I saw bodycount support Carcass at Brixton Academy back in the 90s. The reaction from the crowd was suitably hilarious, they pretty much uncontrollably laughed at his gangster posturing until the set was over.

Never really got into Ice T as a rapper...people like Chuck D, Kane and Rakim made him look very simplistic and one dimensional although he is undoubtedly the godfather of gangsta rap.

Really liked that album. They had (have? I heard they were doing another one?) a great sound.

I think rap and metal are not really that far apart.

I have never been a rap fan, but i loved that when it came out, hell i think everybody did in our generation.
