Kips Bay Hosts Ice-T’s Inspirational Message

YourNabe.com:

Rapper and actor Ice-T paid a visit to children at Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club to host a mini rap school for a few hours and talk about his experiences coming from the streets and making it big.

Ice-T, who currently stars on television’s Law&Order S.V.U., visited Kips Bay’s 1930 Randall Avenue location on Thursday, February 5 and hosted a session in which he critiqued local young people’s raps after taking a tour of the facility, which he said was very impressive.

The visit also brought Tupperware Brands chairman and C.E.O. Rick Goings to the club for young people. Tupperware sponsored Ice-T’s trip to the club. Goings is cehairman Emeritus of the national Boys & Girls Clubs, and Kips Bay was the first club that he visited when he began working with the organization 25 years ago.

“These kids are getting to see a man who lived the street life, and is now a successful performer and businessman,” said Daniel Quintero, executive director of Kips Bay.
