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.
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).
"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."

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.
I tried to get into his music, but then he told me to stop and I did.
"Alright now stop, colla-"
"Okay!"
He didn't leave, he just went on to invent metal.
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!
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‽
And now he's STOMPING THROUGH THE BAYOU
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.
There was a problem and, yo, he solved it
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
No. No. He wasn't under pressure, he was under pressure. Totally different.
Get sued by David Bowie and leaves
Stop, collaborate and leave
Ah 1990, the year rap was invented, yes
He was just too cold.
Too cold and plain
Who?
Multiverse Eminem
I don’t recognize him either, but from the references in the other comments I’m assuming it’s vanilla ice
I've self diagnosed with face blindness, but I tentatively recognized his hair lift.
The references confirmed it.

chocolate rain
Mike Jones

The inventor of rap apparently
Invents what???????
Uncle Vanny was Vanilla Ice this whole time?!
Pressurized Ice
Ice Under Pressure
Probably realized his mistake
"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).
Ice is a legend.
The white MC Hammer.
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.
