After single-handedly kick-starting Gangsta Rap with 1987's Rhyme Pays, Ice-T went metal in 1992 with Body Count who's self-titled debut ended with "Cop Killer". This track caused alot of controversy back in the day, to the extended that Time-Warner had the song deleted in subsequent pressings of the album. Now with a new studio album, MURDER 4 HIRE provides a profound reminder of just how far Body count will continue to go to expose their version of the truth.
