Ice Cube hit the stage for the halftime show at the Busch Light Clash professional racing competition at the L.A. Memorial Coliseum this past weekend (Feb.6). The veteran West Coast emcee and actor performed a few classics from his catalog like "Friday," "Check Yo Self," "You Know How We Do It" and others.

Before the performance Cube said in a statement: “I’ve long been a fan of NASCAR from afar and I’ve become an even bigger fan after seeing the action in person. Now to perform for all of the fans at the Coliseum and for the millions watching at home, I’m excited to be a part of an incredible day at NASCAR and L.A.”

There were mixed reactions from the crowd who were not necessarily fans on the ex N.W.A. legend. One Twitter user wrote “Ice Cube performing at NASCAR is pure gold. Watching the level of discomfort on most faces in the crowd is just pure entertainment”. Another user posted “This crowd does not deserve Ice Cube”, while another said “Man I am sorry, but NASCAR will never be for the ICE CUBE Hip Hop audience, lol they trying hard for ratings IMO.” The mid race concert at lap 75 was a first for NASCAR.
