Title: Did Ice Cube change his lyrics to respect his wife?
Post by: Mindlink on December 28, 2007, 04:36:53 PM: Ice Cube’s wife name is Kim.

In the song “Today Was a Good Day” he mentions a woman named Kim.

“…Had to stop at a red light
Looking in my mirror not a jacker in sight
And everything is alright
I got a beep from Kim and she can fuck all night…”

But when I hear Cube perform the song live he and WC sing “…I got a beep from her and she can fuck all night…”

One of 3 things happened.

1.   Ice Cube is talking about another Kim.
2.   He changed the song lyrics in the live performance because he is married to “Kim”.
3.   “Kim” is a fictitious character/name and he just happen to marry someone named “Kim”

What do you think?

Ill see if i can find the interview. And the reason he changes it live, is because he points at some random female and goes " _she_ can fuck aaaall night" , to interact with the crowd :)
