Ice-T’s birthday this year was extra special, thanks to his wife, Coco Austin, and their 9-year-old daughter, Chanel.

The legendary rapper-turned-actor turned 67 on February 16, and his family made sure the celebration was one to remember.

Not only did Chanel gift her dad a bouquet of roses, but she and Coco also went all out with an extravagant cake fit for a West Coast icon. The multi-layered cake was decked out with bling, family photos, and even a miniature car sitting on top—no, not a real one, but a seriously crafty creation!

Coco shared the special moment on Instagram, writing, “Chanel and I got Ice again for his Birthday this year. After last year, I didn’t know how we were gonna surprise him!!! … Happy Birthday my baby boy! We love you like no other .. You deserve everything in the world!! ”

The family later hit the beach, where Ice-T shared a candid photo of the trio, addressing the constant scrutiny they face. His caption read, “Us right now……While people go back and forth about our parenting… It’s so Obvious we look like we give F… Have a nice day! 👍 #TheIceFamily.”

Ice-T, born Tracy Morrow in 1958 in Newark, New Jersey, first rose to fame as a pioneer of West Coast hip-hop.

His groundbreaking 1987 debut album, Rhyme Pays, helped define the gangsta rap genre, followed by Power, which solidified his place in music history. Beyond his rap career, he made a successful transition into acting, starring in New Jack City (1991) before landing his longtime role as Detective Fin Tutuola on Law & Order: SVU.

His television career also includes appearances on Chicago P.D. and the reality show Ice Loves Coco, which gave fans an inside look at his family life.
