Pusha T Declares ‘F—k ICE’ on Billboard Power 100 Red Carpet: ‘Got to Keep It 100’

Pusha T kept it simple and direct with his two-word message, taking aim at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement while walking the red carpet at Billboard Power 100 in Los Angeles on Wednesday night (Jan. 28).

“Jan. 28, 2026, f—k ICE,” Push said. “Gotta keep it 100. Got to.”

Push is far from the only artist to condemn ICE’s actions recently. Tyler, The Creator slammed ICE with a post earlier this week on his Instagram Story, which featured a Paid in Full scene that repeatedly states, “f—k ICE.” He added a jab at Donald Trump to his caption as well. “Again. And anyone who voted for that man,” Tyler wrote.

Olivia Rodrigo recently spoke out against ICE as well. “ICE’s actions are unconscionable, but we are not powerless. Our actions matter. I stand with Minnesota,” she wrote on social media.

Pusha’s anti-ICE statement comes on the heels of the shootings of U.S. citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti at the hands of ICE agents in Minneapolis earlier in January.

Pretti, 37, was fatally shot by a federal agent during a Minneapolis protest on Jan. 24. The ICU nurse appeared to be protecting a woman from an agent, and was wrestled to the pavement before being shot, which has only intensified protests against ICE across the United States.

The Trump administration claimed that the officer who killed Pretti acted in self-defense, alleging that he was a threat since he had a handgun on him; his family has said that the ICU nurse had a permit to carry the firearm in the state. However, witness videos show that Pretti did not appear to be holding a gun during the confrontation.

Pusha T also presented By the Way’s Alex DePersia with the Breakthrough Executive award at Billboard Power 100. “Alex has always been tapped in. Now, it’s a full-circle moment for my brother and I to be working alongside Alex and the team in the next phase of our careers,” the Virginia rapper said.

Other honorees include UMPG’s Jody Gerson for Executive of the Decade, as well as Sharon Osbourne for the Clive Davis Visionary award and PlaqueBoyMax, who won the Disruptor award.

It could be a weekend for the record books for the Clipse, as Pusha T and Malice are up for five Grammy nominations on Sunday (Feb. 1) behind their critically acclaimed comeback album Let God Sort Em Out.
