At a 1991 press conference promoting his album Death Certificate, Cube endorsed the Nation of Islam's pseudo-scholarly book The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews, which falsely claims that European Jews dominated the Atlantic slave trade. REMOVE WORD "FALSELY"

He also shared various disproven anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. REMOVE WORD "DISPROVEN" 2601:204:E080:9900:50AA:E297:C9DE:4803 (talk) 05:55, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Ice Cube → Ice Cube (rapper) – I think this article should be moved to avoid confusion between Ice Cube and Ice cube. History6042 (talk) 11:54, 17 August 2023 (UTC) The discussion above is closed.

 * Oppose It is a primary example of WP:DIFFCAPS. This move attempt happened before at Talk:Ice Cube/Archive 1 and was rejected then as well. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 12:18, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Zxcvbnm. Plus, the disambiguator shouldn't be capitalized. – Material  Works  12:30, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose move per above. This is an obvious DIFFCAPS case.  O.N.R.  (talk) 13:03, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose. The previous RM was thirteen years ago, so it's reasonable to raise the question again, but in my view this remains a situation where WP:DIFFCAPS is sufficient to distinguish the two articles. ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 18:05, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose. WP:DIFFCAPS can be suspect in certain cases, but definitely not here. I'd say the reverse (people landing on ice cube wanting this article) is far more plausible than anyone landing here wanting Ice Cube. Nohomersryan (talk) 20:38, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

This article is a potential BLP minefield
I just edited up some of Personal Life section. Removed a couple NOTNEWS bits like his favourite movie, and also removed an UNDUE source (Just a court case being filed isn't enough). I'm also not convinced by the quality of the sources being used on this article, removed a couple of the most obviously not RS ones, but someone might need to go through it with a finer comb and check every strong enough claim has a much stronger RS backing it up.

I don't have a strong opinion on Antisemitism being an entire section on this article, but it definitely needs sources that are known to be unbiased. Otherwise this article falls very short of our WP:BLP policies Soni (talk) 21:07, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
