Prince Paul involves Rza in his play "Negroes on Ice"
Well, let’s talk about Negroes on Ice. I got an email last week saying that this thing was coming, which I was not aware of. What exactly is this?
What it is, is actually sort of say a one-man play, which me and my son had wrote, and he is actually the front man of this whole thing. It’s a small production. We tried to keep it simple and keep it personable to the people, so it’s been like small theaters, and it’s more or less like a day in the life of my son. Kind of the inspiration for it is my son has a tendency of—and this is in true life—just like fabricating the truth and kind of extending like these weird stories and stuff. So it’s more or less an exaggerated day in his life; I mean, all the people participated that I'm about to mention did voiceovers and stuff for the play, but he wakes up in the morning and his girlfriend is Rosie Perez. He eventually goes to RZA’s house, punches him in the face and just randomly looks at RZA’s artwork. It’s like it’s just bizarre, and he goes to Freddy Foxx’s house and punches him in the face, and he ends up at a gay parade and he goes from the gay parade to Peanut Butter Wolf, Erick Sermon is a cab driver, Ice-T eventually tries to arrest him. So it’s all over the place - probably my best way to describe it is it’s like a staged play of Adult Swim, so I’ll put it like this: you will definitely need to pay close attention, because if you don’t catch it in the beginning you won’t know what’s going on (laughs). It’s just it’s a bizarre play.
