Ice Cube calls reporter’s rabbi assault accusations “a fuckin lie”

Ice Cube is slamming allegations made by The Daily Beast reporter Marlow Stern that he is anti-Semitic and once ordered his security entourage to beat up a rabbi in 2015. 

The allegation resurfaced after the former N.W.A. rapper faced backlash for posting what many deemed to be anti-Semitic memes, along with a number of images connected to the controversial QAnon conspiracy theory movement.

In the article posted to The Daily Beast titled ‘Ice Cube’s Long, Disturbing History of Anti-Semitism’, Stern referred to a number of previous troubling incidents involving the hip-hop veteran, including the 2015 incident in which Stern alleged Ice Cube ordered the assault of a rabbi.

“It is hard to give Ice Cube the benefit of the doubt given the fact that his anti-Semitic activities have extended beyond the realm of the internet,” Stern wrote in the damning article.

“He’s an ardent supporter of Louis Farrakhan, one of the world’s most prominent anti-Semites, and, most troubling of all, the rapper and actor was accused in May 2015 of ordering his entourage to beat up a rabbi.”

According to TMZ, “Rabbi P. Taras” was at the MGM Detroit hotel in 2015 when he said he accidentally bumped into the rapper outside an elevator.
