The dopest, flyest, O.G. pimp hustler, gangster player hardcore motherfucker, living today, Ice T was recently engaged to record a Dungeons & Dragons audiobook for his podcast sponsor audible.com.

It was quite a challenge for the accomplished actor, as he explained on his podcast, he entered the offices without knowing what he’d be reading.

“They didnt tell me, that this was a muthafucking Dungeons & Dragons book.” He explained, “Dungeons & Dragons is some of the most crazy, deep, deep, deep nerd shit ever invented. Every word you’re sayin’ is prettymuch made up, Muthafuckers talk like yoda: ‘outside I go…into the sun…thereof…in…out’…what the fuck?!? how do you read this shit?”

The language and abundance of made-up words was so complicated that instead of taking three hours, the 45-page short story took two days to record:

“When you read these books you dont have to speak the words so you make up the pronounciation in your head…but to actually verbally speak these words…”

But Ice is fond of the audiobook concept in general, suggesting that you can listen to a book in your car or something, and furthermore, he states: “Considering the way music is right now, you’re better off listening to a book…honestly, it’s more entertaining.”
