Ice-T thinks today’s pop stars are “delusional,” Champagne- swilling shopaholics. “We’ve created a generation of jaded youth,” the old-school rapper and “Law & Order: SVU” star said Saturday night at Sundance. “Music as a whole is delusional. If you listen to pop records right now, you’ll believe everybody’s rollin’, poppin’ bottles, life is perfect. Life is [bleeped] up right now! But everyone’s in a bubble that it’s all good. We’re all floating around like, ‘I’m broke, but. . . hey, pop a bottle, buy some Guuu-cci.’ That’s what’s going on in music right now.” T directed Sundance doc “Something From Nothing: The Art of Rap,” and he joked that his life is now very different from back in the day. “My son’s 20, he got picked up from the hospital in a Rolls,” he joked, adding, “I’m looking for a 19-year-old Public Enemy . . . or NWA . . . it’s gonna take nuts. I’m too old — the kids won’t listen to me.” T performed a free-wheeling, fun-filled set with legends Chuck D and Grandmaster Caz at the ASCAP Music Cafe.

Police in New York have seized two bags containing 16 kg of cocaine at the UN’s mail center. The unusual shipment had been sent from Mexico City and apparently was not intended to end up at the global organization’s headquarters.

In a statement on Thursday, a spokesman for UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon said two suspicious mail bags had been intercepted by UN security personnel.

"The United Nations nor anyone located in the United Nations was the intended recipient of this delivery and the bags were not UN bags, diplomatic or other," Martin Nesirky said.

The investigation was turned over to the Drug Enforcement Administration and New York Police Department, which confirmed that the substance inside the shipment was cocaine.

NYPD deputy commissioner, Paul Browne, said the drugs were found in a white bag that raised suspicions because it was stamped with a distorted UN logo.

He added that there was no name or address on the shipment which was sent from Mexico City via Cincinnati.

"It is my understanding that because there was no addressee, DHL just thought, well, that's the UN symbol so we should ship it on to UN headquarters and let them figure out who it was supposed to go to," Browne said as quoted by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). He added that the UN bags were “obviously fakes.”

"The working theory now is that possibly it was never meant to have left Mexico at all," Browne said. "Somebody in Mexico is probably in trouble now having let a significant amount of cocaine out of their possession."

The bags contained about 14 hard-cover books which had been hollowed to create space for the cocaine, ABC reported.

JANUARY 23--A Florida teenager who called 911 last week asked police to place her in a Christian children’s shelter because she “heard her mother having sex.”

Responding to a domestic disturbance call Thursday around 4 AM, a cop questioned the mother and daughter at their Panama City residence, according to a police report. The duo had been involved in a “verbal altercation,” a cop noted.

The girl, 15, told an officer that she wanted to go to a local shelter “because she heard her mother having sex” and “felt disrespected” by her 35-year-old parent’s actions. The teen acknowledged that “there was no form of abuse or neglect in the house.”

The mother explained to police that she had invited her boyfriend over and “sometime during the visit, her daughter heard them having sex and became upset.” The woman added that “their bedrooms are next to each other and she didn’t intend to wake her daughter up.”

After speaking with a representative from the shelter, the teen decided that she did not want to leave her home because “it was almost time for school.”

The Panama City Police Department cop reported leaving a domestic rights brochure at the residence.
