March 18/17 - Ice T - Power

Second studio album released September 13, 1988

Producers: Ice T, Afika Islam Recorded at Syndicate Studios West

This was one of the first albums I ever owned, got passed on to me. This cover was very popular for a bunch of reasons, but Ice-T's Girlfriend Darlene Ortiz seemed to the focus from both fans and critics. Charted on Billboard 200 for 33 weeks peaking at 35 without a radio edit. Ice sparked the beef with LL Cool J on this album with "Im Your Pusher" and "Girls L.G.B.N.A.F.. LL would respond with "Mama Said Knock You Out."
