Ice T’s empire is expanding, thanks to a new show and a new partnership.

The premium French Brandy OG XO seems like it was crafted from the soundtrack of
Ice T’s life. Therefore, their collaboration was almost preordained.

Ice T, who penned the 1991 classic _OG: Original Gangster_, has the type of brain
that’s carefully calibrated to detect business opportunities that others do not
discern, and he quickly made his vintage pimp move to marry up with Aiko Importers,
the makers of this top shelf spirit.

“The company had already created this liquor. And my business partner showed me
‘XO OG.’ And I said ‘they don’t know who a real OG is.’ ” Ice T recalls
while his buxom blond business partner and wife, Coco Austin, decorated his arm.
“So we went and met with them and tasted it. And we said ‘damn, this drink is
really smooth.’ And we hooked up a business deal. That’s what you do in this
business.”
