GTA 6 Boobie Ike: the Vice City legend behind the Jack of Hearts

Boobie Ike is a supporting character in Grand Theft Auto VI, introduced by Rockstar Games as a local Vice City legend. His page has been live on rockstargames.com/VI since May 6, 2025, the day of the second trailer, in the “Only in Leonida” set. The region the site files him under is not Vice City but the Leonida Keys. The game arrives November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

The biography runs to two lines:

Boobie is a local Vice City legend, and acts like it. One of the few to transform his time in the streets into a legitimate empire spanning real estate, a strip club, and a recording studio: Boobie’s all smiles until it’s time to talk business.

The two lines Rockstar puts in his mouth on the same page do the rest. “The club money pay for the studio, and the drug money pay for it all,” and, on the recording side, “Top quality cuts.”

Then there is the club. The official page never names the venue: it carries a tagline, “It’s all about heart: the Jack of Hearts,” which is a pun on the man rather than an address. The words “the Jack of Hearts strip club” come from Dazed, in the piece published on August 26, 2026 and produced with Rockstar. The name came from a magazine. The neon out front is legible in the official stills, which is not the same as Rockstar writing it down.

His business partner is Dre’Quan Priest, a former street dealer who was booking acts into the club before the two started Only Raw Records. Rockstar writes the tie into the biography: “Boobie might seem like he’s just out for himself, but it’s his partnership with the young aspiring music mogul Dre’Quan for Only Raw Records that he’s most invested in, now they just need a hit.” The rap duo Real Dimez is signed to the label.

That musical trio came out of fieldwork in Miami. Rupert Humphries, senior vice president of narrative at Rockstar Games, described the model to Dazed on August 26, 2026: Miami bass first, then more recent artists such as Kodak Black and Sexyy Red, and the rooms where that music plays.

We were also really interested in how the hip-hop scene in Miami exists in house parties in Overtown, clubs like Booby Trap on the River, and then high-end places on South Beach where bottles can cost thousands of dollars. We needed characters who could take us through those worlds.

The studio draws no line between the name of that Miami club and the name of its character.

The 26 minutes and 48 seconds shown on August 27, 2026 open on an errand for him. Jason and Lucia climb a run-down apartment building to collect product meant for Boobie Ike, find their contact Ray in a room turned into a crack lab, and walk into a police raid. Boobie himself never speaks. The 90-second launch trailer Rockstar posted on YouTube on October 15, 2026 leaves him out too: GameSpot pointed out the same day that he has yet to appear in a single trailer, while IGN’s list of 33 details from the new video counts another shot of the Real Dimez, the duo signed to Only Raw Records.

No cast list, no age

No actor has been attached to Boobie Ike. Rockstar has published no cast list at all, not on the site and not in the Extended Look, and IGN put it plainly on May 7, 2025: “Rockstar isn’t sharing its voice cast for GTA 6 just yet (we asked).” His age and date of birth are missing too, as they are for the eight other people named across those pages.
