"Bitch In The Pit", a brand new song from BODY COUNT, the metal band fronted by hip-hop legend, actor and director Ice-T, can be streamed in the YouTube clip below. The track is taken from the group's new album, "Manslaughter", which will be released on June 10 via Sumerian."Most of the inspiration for my records is that I plan on singing them onstage," Ice-T tells Revolver magazine. "So I try to think of things that the crowd is going though or I'm going though. "Every time we do a show, you're always staring at that mosh pit and there's usually that one girl in there or a couple of girls in the middle of the mosh pit and they're very interesting. So I was thinking this is a way I could dedicate a record to the girls that go to the rock concerts and go hard. It never fails. It's kinda like a true story. It's an homage to the girls that really get in the mosh pit with the guys."In a recent interview with Flama's D-Stroy of "Left Unattended", Ice-T stated about "Manslaughter": "People have been asking me to do some music, and I haven't really been inspired to do hip hop for a while, 'cause hip hop kind of got really pop to me. But my band always wants to play, so we decided to do an album. We got signed to Sumerian Records. We finished the album. It's called 'Manslaughter'. We shot the [first] video. We did the album cover. It'll be out June 10. And it's brutal. It's brutal.""Manslaughter" track listing:01. Talk Shit, Get Shot02. Pray For Death03. 99 Problems BC04. Back To Rehab05.
