Ice Cube is mad as hell and ain't gonna take it no more...In recent days he's returned to the studio to put the finishing touches on the up coming Westside Connection album. On a song called 'Lights Out', which is featured on a soundtrack called 'Ghetto, Gutta and Gansta' Cube takes swipes at actor Samuel Jackson and Reverend Jesse Jackson.

Cube was responding to remarks that Samuel Jackson made a while back where he said he no longer wanted to star in movies featuring rappers unless it was Will Smith. As many of you may know, Jackson got his start by appearing in a rap video. It was Public Enemy's 'Night of the Living Bassheads'. This is in addition to the fact that since those controversial remarks were made rappers like Queen Latifah have been nominated for Oscar and Golden Globe awards... Mos Def was nominated for a Tony Award... Eminem received rave reviews for 8 Mile and was also nominated for an Oscar. Jackson who appeared in several movies last year including XXX and Changing Lanes got no nods whatsoever... Maybe he may want to reconsider his remarks.

Cube saved his harshest remarks for Reverend Jesse Jackson who advocated a boycott of the movie 'Barbershop' for the comedic remarks fellow cast members made about Civil Rights leader Rosa Parks. In the song Cube tells Jesse to pay his child support and keep a rubber on next time he gets busy.

We'll see if the Rev responds to Cube's dis..
