The album contains lyrics which began a feud between Ice-T and rapper LL Cool J. The album cover, which features Ice-T's then-girlfriend Darlene Ortiz, Ice-T, and DJ Evil E, was described as "perpetuating stereotypes" by the Chicago Tribune and "violence-glorifying" by both the Chicago Sun-Times and The Sydney Morning Herald.

  • Power è il secondo album del rapper statunitense Ice-T. Pubblicato il 13 settembre 1988, è distribuito dalla Sire Records e dalla Warner Bros. Records. La copertina dell'album mostra Ice-T al fianco della propria ragazza, Darlene Ortiz, che secondo il Chicago Tribune «perpetua gli stereotipi» mentre secondo Chicago Sun-Times e The Sydney Morning Herald starebbe «glorificando la violenza». Il 22 novembre 1988, la RIAA lo certifica disco d'oro. Il 20 marzo 2006 l'album vende più di un milione di copie e la RIAA lo certifica disco di platino. Il Los Angeles Daily News fa presente che i testi dell'album sono incentrati su vari temi dal sesso alla violenza delle armi, e che Ice-T «implica tutti, dai programmatori radio alla polizia, nell'essere complici nel declino della civiltà occidentale.» Power contiene testi che danno vita alla faida tra Ice-T e il rapper LL Cool J. Il critico musicale Stephen Thomas Erlewine di AllMusic dice che al momento della sua pubblicazione, Power riceve «recensioni forti» e continua a ricevere recensioni retrospettive positive da guide musicali quali Allmusic, The Rolling Stone Album Guide e Spin Alternative Record Guide.
