Ice-T On Working With My Legacy Voice, Future Body Count Plans, John Mulaney, Slayer, Snoop Dogg, “Fear Of A Black Hat” & More

Last month, My Legacy Voice — a new platform from VoCapsule, LLC — announced the launch of early access to its beta service. In short, My Legacy Voice is a new service that captures and protects a speaker’s voice until a designated recipient wants to access a replica—a clone–made with AI technology. My Legacy Voice creates highly realistic voice clones with a combination of proprietary techniques, prompt engineering methods and licensed artificial intelligence programs. Per VoCapsule Founder and CEO Brock Daily says: “We understand a major problem for those who have lost someone they love. Nobody should ever say, ‘I wish I could hear their voice again.'” In turn, My Legacy Voice’s platform lets new members register, record and store voice data that will train a voice clone.

Beyond steadily working as a rapper, actor, author and entrepreneur, Ice-T is a brand ambassador for My Legacy Voice. When we spoke on October 6, 2022 — as taped via Zoom and embedded below — we talked about how and why he became part of the My Legacy Voice team. This then led to conversation about the past, present and future of Body Count, which led to discussion about when he started to notice that he had multiple generations of fans. One day prior to our conversation, a friend had tipped me off to Ice-T’s “Colors” recently being cleared for an upcoming Jeezy album, further illustrating how Ice-T has continued influence top-charting recording artists for close to 40 years.
