Already in the Windy City (his BIG 3 basketball league plays in Chicago Sunday), rapper-turned-actor/director Ice Cube hit Wrigley Field to try his hand at “Take Me Out to the Ballgame”.
And, well…it wasn’t the worst performance of the iconic tune. But, sadly, it was far from the best.

It is awesome to see Ice Cube, a lifelong Los Angeles Dodgers fan, not wearing a Chicago Cubs jersey or hat. Hell…dude didn’t even “root, root, root for the Cubbies”. Now, that’s gangster. Gangsta?
Not everyone hated his rendition of the age-old classic though. Matter of fact, social media was split as to whether it was good or bad.
These ppl talking smack about Ice Cube butchering the Cubs 7th inning stretch..he raps, not sings…cut him some slack. What did ya expect?🙄

Not to bring up the ghosts of an hour ago, but Ice Cube's leading of the 7th inning stretch was terrible #Cubs

Ice Cube singing take me out to the ball game at the Cubs game is the best thing I've ever seen.
