Her name is Darlene Ortiz. But 20 years ago, she was known simply as “Darlene”.
All Darlene ever did to earn her spot in the annals of Hip Hop history was pose half naked for the cover of her husband’s 2nd studio album.
Darlene’s image on the cover of Ice T’s 1987 album “Power” propelled sales of the album through the roof. Her curves earned her praise from men and women alike.
Twenty years later, Darlene reenacted her infamous album pose for KING magazine. From the photos, we see that Darlene, now in her 40s, still has it. Video models today with their super sized man-made parts look like cartoon caricatures in comparison to Darlene from back in the day. She was perfect.
There’s not a video model out today who can measure up to the Darlene of 1987 — and she wasn’t even black!

Where Are They Now: Darlene Ortiz (Ice T’s Ex)
Jazzy use to rap??? I seen him in the UK about 3 years ago and he knows his shit!
search martin luther kang on you tube
All I can say is Jazzy is a very handsome and intelligent man I had the opportunity of meeting him on numerous occasions at music industry panels and he’s always well groomed and very professional. It’s very few real managers in this hip hop industry and I can honestly say that he is one that we consider a real manager
I just seen an interview with Ice T and he said Jazzy Dee is the person that Introduced him to Darlene wow so she definitely should thank Jazzy for changing her life that’s some classic story shit ..
