In news likely to excite a significant proportion of the prison population, TV Cop Ice-T has posed nude for the cover of his new album.
The album, 'Gangsta Rap', is Ice-T's first release since 1999's 'The Seventh Deadly Sin'. It was released on Tuesday in the United States.Ice-T - aka Tracy Marrow - defended claims that the cover artwork is akin to pornography. The image features the 48-year-old lying naked in bed, his modesty covered by his bikini-model wife's leg. Her g-string-clad buttocks also play an important role in the artwork.
"It's not pornography, it's sexy," he told Reuters, adding, "It's part John Lennon and Yoko Ono. It was art when they did it and it's where everybody wants to be - laid up in bed."
