			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The same man that said the infamous line, “Stop giving juice to the Raiders…cause Al Davis ain't never paid us” on “Wrong Ni**a To F&amp;%k With” is doing just that. </p>
<p>Ice Cube is giving juice to the Raiders and directing a one hour long ESPN documentary on his former foes. As previously <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/5081/ice-cube-set-to-deliver-new-documentary-for-espn/">reported</a> by Hip-Hop Wired, Compton's finest was given the reins on a <span id="more-8159"></span>new project for ESPN's 30 for 30 documentary series to commemorate the network's 30th anniversary. </p>
<p>Cube is putting the finishing touches on the  documentary highlighting the Raiders' influence on California culture and their paramount move from Oakland to L.A. in the 80s titled, “Straight Outta L.A.” </p>
<p>Cube reflected on how the success of his solo career and success with legendary gangster rap group, N.W.A., brought the Raiders to the forefront of popularity in a statement from ESPN saying:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>"The music, lyrics and images that I created with N.W.A, as a solo artist and as an actor helped turn the Raiders into something more than a football team. It's been 21 years since we released Straight Outta Compton, but to this day, kids all over the world buy Raiders gear, imitate the "Gangster Rap" style and try to connect with the South Central L.A. vibe that we brought to the masses."</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>There is no set date for the premiere of “Straight Outta of L.A.” as of yet. Other directors chosen for the series include Peter Berg, Reggie Rock Blythewood, John Singleton, Morgan Freeman and Steve James.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ice Cube is directing an ESPN documentary about the Los Angeles Raiders. He was just added to a lineup of 30 special-edition directors for the “30 for 30” ESPN documentary series. The project features 30 one-hour films that shine light on a topic covered by ESPN in its 30 years of programming. Ice Cube's documentary is called “Straight Outta L.A.” and connects the Raiders to himself, NWA and their influence on his hometown. How ironic that the same man that said, “Stop giving juice to the Raiders…cause Al Davis ain't never paid us” in “Wrong Ni**a To Fu%k Wit” is directing their documentary.</p>
<p>Previously announced directors for the series include <span id="more-5081"></span>Peter Berg, Reggie Rock Blythewood, John Singleton, Morgan Freeman and director of the cult classic documentary, “Hoop Dreams,” Steve James.  The other stories will include Singleton's documentary on Marion Jones' fall from glory, a story on the South African rugby team and Olympic Speed Skater Johann Olav Koss.</p>
<p>Cube also recently made sports headlines lending his hit “Today Was A Good Day” to a Nike SB commercial. In the commercial skater Paul “P Rod” Rodriguez is shown skating through L.A. on a skateboard with Cube's song playing in the background. Cube makes a cameo at the end of the commercial running over Rodriguez's skateboard in his low-rider.</p>
