U.S. rapper, actor and filmmaker O'Shea Jackson Sr., known in professional music circles as "Ice Cube," turns out to be a DOGE man, according to his recent tweet.
Ice Cube responded to a tweet by Bill Lee, a founding member of MyDoge wallet and a cofounder of Craft Ventures, who stated that he would buy some Fire-Tier editions of Aliens from Big3 co-founded by Ice Cube, if they accepted Dogecoin for those.
The rapper put up a response that can be interpreted as Ice Cube supporting Dogecoin and being happy to accept it as payment.
