We haven\u2019t talked yet. We just starting to figure out when we can have this meeting and how we gonna have it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would love to bring some people in,\u201d added the rapper. \u201cI work with some great people, some great experts, who know the root of the problem much better than me. I would love to bring in the specialists I have, and the experts I have, to see what we can do to start moving this ball down the field.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ice Cube believed the meeting would happen sometime this month, which would occur during \u201cBlack History Month.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During the same interview, the \u201cStraight Outta Compton\u201d producer defended his decision to work with the Trump administration if the former president had succeeded at winning a second term, arguing that black Americans have been suffering in this country irrespective of the political party in power.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhether a Democrat or Republican is in the White House, they\u2019re still not looking at our agenda in the right way,\u201d he said. \u201cSo it really don\u2019t matter. We still gotta get them to acknowledge and remedy the situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn his \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/ice-cube-demands-politicians-sign-contract-with-black-america-before-getting-support-of-black-vote-301116710.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Contract with Black America<\/a>,\u2019 Ice Cube asks politicians for banking, police and prison reform, elimination of all Confederate statues, federal funding of \u2018baby bonds\u2019 starting with $1,000 at birth, among other reforms to support the Black community in order to earn the \u2018support of the Black vote,&#8217;\u201d reported <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/ice-cube-interview-trump-campaign-platinum-plan-black-americans\">Fox News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Ice Cube received backlash for his pledge to work with President Trump. He, however, did not apologize.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI put out a plan, both campaigns wanted to talk to me about it, and I was eager to talk to both campaigns. I\u2019m done playing this politic game, joining sides,\u201d he told Trevor Noah of \u201cThe Daily Show.\u201d \u201cTo me, that doesn\u2019t get the job done. You know, what gets the job done is to try to make a deal with whoever\u2019s in power, and hopefully they see what we\u2019re going through. Now, we don\u2019t know who\u2019s going to win.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ice Cube did not endorse Trump, and asserted that in order to get something positive done, he would work with whomever to do it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wanna keep our issues top-of-mind and at the forefront of everything. So, you know, it\u2019s politics. The Trump campaign put out those headlines, but, you know, you\u2019ve got both sides putting out headlines. You\u2019ve got celebrities on both sides with headlines,\u201d he said. \u201cYou know, campaigns try to use political footballs in any way they can. At the end of the day, American people [are] smarter than that. American people are gonna look at all of the facts and go and vote for the person they believe can win and do a better job.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/watch-ice-cube-tells-trevor-noah-playing-politics-doesnt-get-the-job-done\">WATCH: Ice Cube Tells Trevor Noah Playing Politics \u2018Doesn\u2019t Get The Job&nbsp;Done\u2019<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
