Wicked is the first single from rapper Ice Cube's third studio album The Predator. The song's music video was directed by Marcus Raboy and features the band Red Hot Chili Peppers.[1]

The song was covered by Korn for their 1996 album Life Is Peachy. This version features Deftones lead singer Chino Moreno and contrasts from Ice Cube's version with scat like vocals from Jonathan Davis in the chorus. This would be the first of three Korn songs involving Ice Cube, the others being "Children of the Korn" and "Fuck Dying".

Limp Bizkit has also covered the song in concert.[2]
