“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).
Get sued by David Bowie and leaves
He’s pushing Street Fighter 2 Guyle energy
I tried to get into his music, but then he told me to stop and I did.
Forget everything you know about slipcovers!
“Alright now stop, colla-”
“Okay!”
Who?
The inventor of rap apparently
chocolate rain
deleted by creator
Multiverse Eminem
Mike Jones
I don’t recognize him either, but from the references in the other comments I’m assuming it’s vanilla ice
The actually useful answer. Thanks
I’ve self diagnosed with face blindness, but I tentatively recognized his hair lift.
The references confirmed it.
it’s magneto
Invents what???
And never seemed to be under pressure to return
No. No. He wasn’t under pressure, he was under pressure. Totally different.
The white MC Hammer.
Uncle Vanny was Vanilla Ice this whole time?!
Ah 1990, the year rap was invented, yes
“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?
They only stop when it is time for the hammer. ✋️🔨⏰️.
Can’t touch this, because I’m too legit to quit.
I salute you on this one.
He didn’t leave, he just went on to invent metal.
And now he’s STOMPING THROUGH THE BAYOU
And after that His home improvement tv show… 9 seasons
Guys like Bob Vila walk the path Ice paved.
Red Green salted the Iced path, at least he’s handy.
Is there anything this wunderkind can’t invent‽
Everyone knows Nickelback was the true creator of metal music.
what about Hanson?
Pretty sure Mmm Bop is credited with inventing scat music, which eventually caught on in jazz a bit.
Hmm… you might be onto something!
Probably realized his mistake
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.
Genius fusion of ice to babies
Using his own completely unique music/melody as well. A true visionary.
Tbf plenty of rap was sampled at that time.
