Ice Cube Releasing New Album ‘I Am The West’ This Summer

Ice Cube checked in with fans on his official web site on Wednesday (February 24) with news about his upcoming ninth studio album. The 40-year-old rapper/actor writes:

‘I Am The West’ is the name of my new record. After completing about 65 percent of my music, this is the new perfect title. This sh** is cocky, no apologies, West Coast gangsta sh**. I can’t help it. That’s what I do… June seems too tight for a release, but July is very doable. We’ll see how things go. Now that I have my title, I can work on the concept of my photoshoot and artwork. I want to provide.
