Pillow Talk With Ice-T and CoCo

Listen up lovers: Valentine's Day is fast upon us, and if you can count on Stereogum for one thing, it's relationship advice. So for those still struggling to find that perfect V-day gift, might we suggest the forthcoming book of tips for couples? Via Daily New:

Ice-T and his wife, model Nicole (CoCo) Austin, are ready to dole out relationship advice. "Me and Ice are currently writing a book about creating and maintaining a successful relationship," CoCo told us yesterday. "We have had great success in balancing our careers and private lives, and we would like to share some of that knowledge with others who are in need of guidance and/or inspiration." I know I've always wondered how CoCo balances.
Don't be skeptical. The Gangsta Rapper and CoCo have their relationship-advice qualifications covered.

This is still one of the finest album covers I've seen in some time. I'd find it hard to deny that it doesn't succinctly capture both the dream and reality of mainstream gangsta rap.

Dude, you should see what they've done with the bronze ass filter in cs3. The beta is unbelievable.

Stereogum: for the love of sweet Jesus, the souls of the starving children in Africa, the rights of Tibetans and Darfurians to never be persecuted, and all that's good, decent and non-fattening or cancer-causing...

Spencer, Ice-T is a cool guy. That being said, there's nothing terribly deep or insightful about this album cover. Any message he may have tried to convey was lost by the sight of his nasty, naked, silicone-infused wife on it.

Spencer, man. I fully and whole-heartly agree with you. It is the best album cover I also seen in a long time. The cover is a masterpiece!
