How to Celebrate January 20th, the Day Ice Cube Had a “Good Day”
If you’re a fan of hip-hop, you probably know the classic song “It Was a Good Day” by Ice Cube, wherein he proceeds to regale listeners about a perfect day in his life. But did you know that someone figured out the exact date of that fabled “good day?”
Through a process of meticulous triangulation and deduction, Donovan Strain, owner of the tumblr page Murk Avenue arrived at the “actual date” of Ice Cube’s good day.
Donovan a skater, and filmmaker, who boasts an impressive resume that includes teaching Tony Hawk a new trick at age 51, became an internet sensation when he shared his detailed analysis, which led to the conclusion that the good day took place on January 20th, 1992.
His method involved cross-referencing the lyrics of the song with historical and cultural references, such as the weather, Lakers game results, and other events mentioned by Ice Cube. This lighthearted and witty investigation captured the imagination of many, adding an extra layer of fun to the already beloved song and its mysterious date.
According to this analysis, it was January 20th, 1992. That means today is the anniversary of Ice Cube’s good day, and we think that’s a great reason to celebrate!
At GreenPharms, we’re all about making every day a good day for our customers. That’s why we offer the best quality cannabis products and the friendliest service in Arizona. Whether you need some flower, edibles, concentrates, or vape pens, we have what you need to make your day a little better. And if you’re looking for some inspiration, here are some ways you can celebrate January 20th, the day Ice Cube had a good day:
- Start your day with a nutritious breakfast, just like Ice Cube did. Although, despite his mom not including any “hog,” it’s understandable that some may opt to toss in some ham, bacon or sausage- or a protein-based equivalent thereof. Add in some eggs, toast, and hash browns, possibly with some oatmeal and fruit, and you’ve given yourself a good start to your good day.
- Watch some Yo! MTV Raps, the show that Ice Cube and his homies were watching on his good day. You can find some episodes on YouTube or other streaming platforms, although you’ll need a subscription to either Amazon Prime, AppleTV, or Paramount+.
- Or, if you prefer, you can listen to some of your favorite rap songs from the 90s, or any era. We recommend spinning your favorite hip hop record, provided there is a turntable available. Failing that, finding an ideal playlist on Spotify, Apple Music, or YouTube should do more than suffice in providing the soundtrack to your own “good day.”
- Try your luck at some gambling, like Ice Cube did when he played craps with his friends. You don’t have to go to a casino, you can just play with some dice or cards at home, or online. Just remember to gamble responsibly and don’t bet more than you can afford to lose. And if you win, don’t forget to shop with us, online or in store, for all of your cannabis needs!
- Treat yourself to a romantic tryst, just like Ice Cube’s rendezvous with a girl he’d had a crush on since the 12th grade. Of course, you don’t have to hook up with your high school crush; you can hook up with whoever you want, as long as they consent and you’re safe.
- And hey, f you’re not in the mood for that sort of thing, you can just relax and enjoy some quality time with yourself or your loved ones. Maybe watch a movie, read a book, or play a game. Whatever makes you happy and relaxed, do it. You deserve it.
- End your day with a delicious dinner, like Ice Cube did when he got a Fatburger. You can order from your favorite restaurant, cook something at home, or even make your own burger. Just make sure you savor every bite and appreciate the good food.
- Look up at the sky and see if you can spot the Goodyear Blimp, like Ice Cube did when he saw it read “Ice Cube’s a Pimp”. You might not see the same message, but you can still admire the sight and feel proud of yourself for having a good day.
- Go to bed with a smile on your face, like Ice Cube did when he didn’t have to use his AK. You might not have a gun, but you can still be grateful that you didn’t have any trouble or violence in your day.
