Ice-T- Shut Up, Be Happy

[vincentjurg]

SOPA & PIPA = Shut up, be happy!

[holsterboy166]

America the country doesn't exist anymore she's now a diseased whore empire of greed and lust.

[TsugaruClan]

"America is now under marshall law" should be "America is now under martial law."

[Radu287]

And now... SOPA!

[stickz66]

Ice-T warned you all about censorship 20 years ago lol.

[holsterboy166]

@stickz66 Yeah well keep in mind Ice-T is just another overpaid celebrity these days.Maybe back then he gave a fuck but now that he's got mega money he'll go along with the authorities that will protect him and his wealth.

[spike007980]

*Cue Mr. Mustaine Center Stage at approx. 2:38*

[mfMsher0ne]

when I hear this now I imagine Tom Ridge rolling around on a tank screaming this through a megaphone while he jerks off on the Constitution...

[thesdboxer]

National Defense Authorization Act. Research it, its real! Wake up people! Before its to late!

[hiphop4life24678]

Even gangsta rap back then had meanings and delivery man fuck todays rap!!!

[gwarfan1point5]

and thats exactly why they should never let asians post lyrics

[cirrusminorusa]

it's "all SPORTS broadcasts will proceed as normal"

[carlorocky]

WOW! I remember hearing this as a teenager in the late 80's. I live in New Orleans and remember the months after Katrina. This is more reality than fiction, believe me. "Thinking may lead to depression" Damn I think that part is true.

[MuscIenuts]

@carlorocky i voted for president bush.

[2slikkrikkful]

@carlorocky YES THIS IS REALITY ESPECIALLY AFTER OBAMA SIGNED THE NATIONAL DEFENSE AUTHORIZATION ACT WHICH MEANS WE CAN BE TAKEN TO BE DETAINED WITH OUT QUESTIONING AND COURT HEARING AND YOU COULD BE EXECUTED FOR SPEAKING AGAINST THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT, THIS IS REAL PEOPLE WAKE UP AND GET OUT OF THIS COUNTRY ICE-T NEW WHAT WAS GOING ON WAY BACK THEN AS WELL AS WILLIAM COOPER WHO PREDICTED 9/11 WAY BACK IN 1996

[XxgraveXxrobber13]

I had this on cd when it came out ,,,,i was in like eighf grade. lol ! but this is by far the best Ice_t cd!!! I'm a honkey and I support this message !

[leevinylcritic]

no way ive only just noticed that's Jello Biafra from the Dead Kennedys, over a black Sabbath sample!!

[socksuffon]

Maybe thinking 1989's release CD

[co1088]

few mistakes.in your text Urine samples, not urine examples.

sub division sectors after cerfew.

number one enemy of progress is questioned

use only the drugs "prescribed" by your boss or supervisor.

not trying to be a dick, just letting you know.

Lyric sites are mostly all wrong :P

all sports broadcasts will proceed as normal

the comfort you have demanded is now mandatory

[peoman2]

Classic album.

Anyone who appreciates great music should listen to Ice T's Power, The Iceberg and O.G. ... they're 3 absolute classics of music.

[Htown75]

This has become reality.....THX Patriot Act!!!!

[sadfuk]

Jello biafra is the daddy.I never tire of listening.

[johnsendz]

sick but potential reality

[NorEEzta]

One of my fav tapes. That's right, I said tape.

[bobdylan4evr]

they should have had jello re do this because i can here the audience laughing at some parts

[pef23]

@bobdylan4evr I never thought this was laughing cos I didn't know where the original came from. It sounded like angry shouts to me. Then again I was only 12 so I didn't know much about anything.

[bobdylan4evr]

@pef23 you must've had pretty cool parents

[excrutiated]

first used in the movie terminal city ricochet , backing by that bloke from consolodated.

then longer on no more coccons , a spken word album.

this version is an edit of the no more cocoons version.

coldcut sampled it n all.

[spike007980]

2:40 Cue Dave Mustaine Holy Wars intro.

[SpydieIam]

also "Use only the drugs described by your boss or supervisor." should be "Use only the drugs prescribed by your boss or supervisor."

[SpydieIam]

"Anyone caught outside of gates of their surveillance sectors after curfew" should be "Anyone caught outside of gates of their subdivision sectors after curfew"

[beansandcornbread]

The original version is onJello Biafra's No More Cocoons album, circa 1987.

[zombie66626]

Black Sabbath?

[slantyrock]

@zombie66626 Ice-T is a big fan of Sabbath. He's sampled war pigs in one of his songs.

[IIIIIRepoIIIII]

Sad this is what america is coming too just look around

[AlJonesGT40]

I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR THIS TRACK SINCE MY MAMA BUST INTO MY ROOM AND REMOVED THE CASSETTE. CLASSIC ICE AND I LOVIT

[NewAgedRage]

I'm more of a fan of street punk/heavy metal music, but the old school MCs had the same spirit of rebellion and individualism that they're playing now.

I feel like the psychology of the real rap community, artists like Ice T, 2pac, MC Eiht, all those, I feel like they share a lot of the same theme as the street punks and metalheads of today, the general idea of looking around and being disappointed with everything the world's doing. Good shit.

[nico2710]

Tha lyrics are totally fucked up, sure you got this from a website? Anyway awesome shit

[PrankZabba]

the actual Jello Biafra version from his spoken word album is slightly different then this version here

[JuggaloRydaz907]

BLACK SABBATH IS THE GREATEST! loving it

[Wizpering]

Wow amazing true Hip Hop with amazing Heavy Metal sampling. Ice T & Black Sabbath awesome combination.

[Tristin809]

@Wizpering Thats not ice T though its Jello Biafra from the Dead Kennedys.

[Htown75]

I feel like we are headed this way with the way we have split in this country caused by special interests.....

[bigdaddyvtec]

Ah the devils trio... Yummy :O)

[woodbell67]

Martial not marshall.

Martial from Mars, god of war

[jesta1979]

THIS WHERE WE HEADED IF CHANGE DONT COME SOON

[ucmrwb]

it is coming to your town soon

[pepetigs]

national security is more important than individual will. All of this is coming true.....I used to think this was funny as a kid listening to this

[Htown75]

@pepetigs Me too! I remember playing this loud in my mom's car waiting for her to get off work. A groups of people started gathering listening and asking what was going on. I turned it off and told them it was just a song. Now i feel the way things are going, it was telling the future.

[cubby3o5]

Reminds me of Megadeth's Endgame which is pretty much about the same thing but the story of Endgame is even worse and I hope for humanity that it never happens.

[CiscoMcLovin]

@cubby3o5 this inspired megadeths endgame

[cubby3o5]

@CiscoMcLovin Really? Learn something new every day. What I did not want to see today is Zakk Wylde's junk through a yellow jump suit.

[BigDaddyMalcontent]

Martial Law, not marshall

[mikhail1113]

This is wicked!!!!!

[newton3010]

uhhh ohhh, i tried to think and now i'm depressed,,,

[PrankZabba]

good tune. i did the same idea, but used some ranting from some church where buddy list all sorts of "bad" bands. and buddy just goes on and on and on and on. listing some stupid bands that aren't satanic. but what's funny, is that they never mentioned Black Sabbath

[COUNTCARDULAR]

and now we are here, jello and ice must have done their homework as jordan maxwell likes to say..the usa is dead.

[friggetyfuck]

Megadeth play this as they walk out on stage... fucken awesome!

[budking1]

....will be shot

[spike007980]

Sadly...this is the greatest thing humans ever created.

[SIKK01]

instead of "port broadcasts" It should read "All sports broadcasts will proceed as normal"

[white43]

"The comformental mandor is now mandatory. " Should be

The comfort you demanded is now mandatory.

Music - Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath.

[jerudoriginal91]

@white43 Thanks for the heads up, almost all lyric websites made that mistake.

[D33veeoss]

...outside their sub-division sectors....

[evilcraig359]

@white43 Lyrics Jello Biafra.

[TheMonkeyface62]

that sounds like them and you know who they are
