Ice Cube
Hip-hop artist Ice Cube rose to prominence in the gangster rap group N.W.A, then enjoyed a successful solo career in music and Hollywood films. Born O’Shea Jackson, the entertainer converted to Islam shortly after going solo in the 1990s.
In a February 2000 interview with The Guardian, he explained the nuances of his identity as a Muslim: “I mean, what I call myself is a natural Muslim, ’cause it’s just me and God. You know, going to the mosque, the ritual and the tradition, it’s just not in me to do. So I don’t do it.”
it is not clear if Ice Cube still practices the faith.
