The OG Ice-T gives respect to his “rap veteran peers” for selling out arenas in new generation era.
Ice T salutes Nas, Wu-Tang Clan, 50 Cent, LL Cool J, Snoop Dogg, & Ice Cube for still selling out arenas
Ice-T has given his fellow Hip Hop OGs their due credit for continuing to sell out arenas even in the later stages of their careers.
On Saturday (Aug. 9), the Los Angeles native took to Twitter to shout out fellow legends for their perseverance and cross-generational influence.
Ice-T wrote. “From what I’ve noticed.. Classic HipHop is selling out Arenas world wide! NAS, WuTang, 50cent, LL, Snoop, IceCube.. Our fans are showing up and having a blast!! It’s a great feeling. Respect to the OGs! We’re not done… 💥💥💥💥”
The hip-hop emcee was referring to the colossal gigs that have been going recently and coinciding with the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop. This includes 50 Cent’s global Final Lap tour, Wu Tang Clan and Nas’ North American NY State of Mind dates, LL COOL J’s star-studded F.O.R.C.E. trek and Ice Cube’s upcoming UK and Ireland shows, among countless others.
Meanwhile, younger artists have been struggling to fill venues. Lil Baby was forced to cancel several dates on his ‘It’s Only Us’ tour. Moneybagg Yo canceled shows in Orlando and Philadelphia earlier August due to low ticket sales.
