I tried to get into his music, but then he told me to stop and I did.
What a musical genius

Genius fusion of ice to babies

Using his own completely unique music/melody as well. A true visionary.
jaybone@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Tbf plenty of rap was sampled at that time.

There was a problem and, yo, he solved it
thefartographer@lemm.ee 7 months ago
Before he left, he turned out the lights and glowed

I heard he made a line of surfing products, starting with Chump Wax.

And never seemed to be under pressure to return
TachyonTele@lemm.ee 7 months ago
No. No. He wasn’t under pressure, he was under presure. Total different.

Basically every rap pre-Wu Tang was like “well my name is jim and i’m here to say, i don’t support anyone who’s gay!” Exceptions are EPMD and Eric B and Rakim.

“Bloodhound Gang and Rob van Winkle: Together on this track.”
He genuinely could flow. He just was too caught up in trying to market himself (his rap / metal fusion album was a good example of lyrics trying to package a look).

Probably realized his mistake
postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 7 months ago
How much $$ has he turned down from the Trump campaign? You know they want a rapper or a hip hop hopper to engage the youths.

“See, their song goes ‘ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding/ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding’, and mine goes ‘ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding/DING-ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding’. It’s totally different.”
— Vanilla Ice, comparing Queen’s “Under Pressure” to his song “Ice Ice Baby”

I wanna see a double blind study on what percentage of people can accurately distinguish between ice ice baby and under pressure in the first few seconds.

Are they working alone, or do you envision groups who can stop, collaborate, and listen?
