Sports-wise, Rap legend O’Shea Jackson, better known as Ice Cube, goes bicoastal. The Los Angeles native loves his local teams out in SoCal.
However, he also loves both of Baltimore’s major pro teams. Appearing on the podcast hosted by Cal Ripken’s son, Cube praised (or I guess we could say Jackson praised) the Orioles hat.
“The hat to me is fire; the bird on the hat is fire,” he said while a photo of him wearing it appeared on the Ryan Ripken Show.
Alright….We asked Ice Cube (@icecube)

And his son, Shareef Jackson, loves Ray Lewis, the Ravens G.O.A.T.
“It was Ray Lewis and the Ravens all the way for him,” the former member of N.W.A. said while a picture of his son in a Ravens shirt appeared on the podcast.
“Still a big time ravens fan, loves Lamar, and Baltimore continues to be in our heart.”
Move over Biz Markie, as there is another member of the hip-hop community within the Ravens fanbase.
