Ice Cube to Star in movie "XXX 2"

'XXX' revs up with Ice Cube, Tamahori

"XXX" will be back -- but its star and director will not. Vin Diesel and director Rob Cohen have opted out of the sequel to the 2002 actioner about an extreme athlete-turned-secret agent, prompting Revolution Studios to tap Ice Cube to star and "Die Another Day" helmer Lee Tamahori to direct the second installment of the franchise, which will begin production in the summer and hit theaters in 2005. According to Revolution, all parties involved determined that the franchise was best served by the introduction of a new "XXX" character in each film. Although Diesel and Cohen will not reprise their roles for the sequel, they will remain executive producers on the project. (Josh Spector)

Cube Cube Cube..... XXX?

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

Yeah, same here. But that's just because I'm a Vin Diesel fan...on the other hand, it's a good idea of havin' a different XXX-star in each movie!
