  • Trivia
    Son of Kimberly Woodruff and Ice Cube.
  • Quotes
    Ice Cube's the coolest dad. A lot of parents - a lot of kids do not think their parents are cool. Oh, no. My dad's cool... You know, I was born in 1991. That's when 'Boyz n the Hood' came out. So I've always see him on TV. I don't see everybody else's dad, you know. So I've always had a sense of, you know, he's cool. He's in the light.
    • Spot-on resemblance to his father Ice Cube
