What up gang? First, I’m going to give you this brand new music industry news about Ice Cube. They’re going to tell you how you can use this information for a music career, for yourself or for a friend. I’m Rob Level, this is Smart Rapper let’s get it. Ice Cube said, I turned down $9 million because I didn’t want to get the jab.

00:13:28 – 00:28:16

He said f- That jab, F- all that I’m not about to get it. I don’t know how Hollywood feels about me right now. Ice Cube was actually fired from a movie that starred Jack Black. Right. And the reason being is the producers on the movie wanted everybody to get the COVID shot, so check it out. He actually accepted the role for the movie.

00:28:16 – 00:44:25

Then they wouldn’t let him be in it because he wouldn’t get vaccinated. He said they wouldn’t give it to me. The COVID shot, the jab. He didn’t want it. He said that he didn’t need it and he said he still didn’t catch it, which is actually lucky because I caught those three times. Three times. Now, this may seem weird, like we’re talking about the COVID shot, but this is all this is actually recent information that he shared.

00:44:25 – 01:05:26

Now, let’s think about this. What lesson from Ice Cube’s mistake can we take and apply to a music career? Right. First of all, does it matter which status? It doesn’t matter who you are, how big, what kind of world change you made in any? It doesn’t matter, especially for talking about movies. If you think about going into movies later on in your career in any way, shape or form, which I know that I am. I’ve actually already been offered movie roles and stuff like that, but I wasn’t about to fly, didn’t want to be to go.

01:06:01 – 01:23:22

Was it like Netherlands? No, it was frickin the was Greenland. I was like in like 20, 2012, I was offered a movie role and it paid a lot. I was like, I’m not doing that. I’m doing music. Right. Anyway, it doesn’t matter who you are. If there are going to be rules and there are going to be things that you have to do in this circumstance, give up $9 million.

01:23:24 – 01:43:22

You probably would not give up even $1,000,000. Now for another lesson we can take. This is when you have money, you have power, you have choice, you have opportunity, you have time saved. Money is a tool for these types of things. He can say no to something that most people would never say no to and still stand his ground and still stand with his morals and the things that he believes in.

01:43:22 – 01:57:05

He doesn’t believe in getting the shot. If did, he would have already got it right. So because already has money, he doesn’t have to do things that he feels like could potentially endanger him. But a lot of people did do that just to have a vaccination card to be able to go in public with other people. People got the shots even if they didn’t want the shot.

01:57:09 – 02:09:22

I lost an employee, started and thought they would be perfect for the PR team over here. And then three days in, she thought that I said that you have to get a shot. But I didn’t say you had to get a shot. And she quit. And when I called her and asked her about why she quit, she said, Because I don’t want to get shot.

02:09:25 – 02:21:18

I said, you have to get a shot. What are you talking about? It was all just a miscommunication, but still went ahead and decided not to actually let her come back in because she made such a rash decision without actually talking to me about it. And I thought that was a red flag. So anyway, but no matter what it is you have, think about this.

02:21:18 – 02:39:15

You gonna be the studio, what people are going to want you to do something, not necessarily against your morals, but something that’s like out of your box, out of your comfort zone, something that you’re not really comfortable with. And there are going to be circumstances where if you want to move forward and have this opportunity, money or not, something that’s going to move yourself forward in your life, in your career, you’re going to have to sacrifice and do something that you don’t want to do.

02:39:16 – 02:53:07

And that’s what will be take from this. This doesn’t matter who you are, you are going to have to make and do these things. Okay. I take that as a lesson from this today.
