He's still getting paid for this song ( heavy rotation ) and he owns the song-UNDER-PRESSURE-lock,stock and barrel. He gets money for Under-Pressure too.
I like the later rap song "boom" he did with "blood hound gang". He used his real name rob van Winkle on the track rather than vanilla ice because at that time he was trying to distance himself from the past.
54 here, GO Genx!!! The amount of discovery for these young'ins leaves me jealous, soooo much great music in the late 80's and all through the 90's to discover!
Right .. wasn't about diss tracks.. or called bars.. story tellin' . Life ..sure .. it could get rough but the music was about the jams ... Not the diss
I graduated High School in 91, you have no Idea how popular this song was. In fact it was so popular it burned itself out. I still like it; oh, I listen to rock/country.
"Word to your Mother". This song was massive back in the day. You couldn't escape it, it was so huge but that's also where the backlash came. It was a while before Vanilla was appreciated again. I was a Rock dude back in the day but I loved this song, my band would cover this. I still remember all the lyrics to this day.
There's a reason this song was so big back then... a BANGER!! Regardless what anyone says..He made his mark into he music industry... with so many others. Music back then was just in another level!!
Bruh, First, you are by far the most entertaining, enjoyable person doing these reviews. Keep it up. Second, MTV was the first time I heard this. Signed, 61 year old Caucasian man.
I was 19 when this dropped. Being a hip hop head I could tell he wasn't a black dude but that didn't matter. This was a massive joint in the summer of 1990 and its still a timeless classic.
To be fair, back then, things were quite different. The young kids understood that anybody who would name themselves Vanilla Ice was a dead giveaway, lol.
Same with Snow - Informer. I've seen several youtubers asking if we knew back in the day that they were white, and I'm like "yeah, I mean, Vanilla and Snow, you don't really need to see them to figure it out".
Right, lol. Now that I'm actually thinking about it, the label that signed them likely was the reason for their names. The labels ruled every aspect of artists' lives back then. Most of them never even got paid.
@@patriciabusch4599 Not a lot has changed. I guess there's more ways to succeed without a label these days, but "labels" now gatekeep the tours, gigs and merch instead of the radio and tv spots. I suppose my point is that if you're not a superstar, various companies still take all the money.
When I lived in Fort Myers, Fl in the 90s .... Rob was racing jet ski's at Fort Myers beach , we yelled out A1 A ... and Rob yelled back ... Beach front Avenue 😊lol
Vanilla Ice does concerts if you look up I Love the 90's tours. Tone Loc, Rob Base, Young MC Salt N Pepa. I have been to a couple of them always a blast.
He used to tour with McHammer. People called both of them sellouts. It was ridiculous. The 80's were more of my teens, but the 90's were 🔥🔥. It was just about having fun and rockin' the party. GenX still dancing into our 50's!
I was in 7th grade when this song dropped. I remember kids walking around in the halls, in a trance, dropping these bars. On the bus, some kid wrote down all the lyrics and passed them out so that everyone could rap along with the song. It was EPIC.
Love your animated expressions and enthusiasm - this indeed was a bangin' tune back in the day. Still sounds good. Didja notice the 5.0 on the side of the white convertible? that was a Mustang 5.0, hot car back then
Great reaction. It's impossible not to move when you hear this song. He took the hook from the Queen song "Under Pressure" but in the end it was settled and we can all still enjoy this great song.
@ he just had to turn on the radio or watch a TV show or a movie or step into any club or any dance whatsoever wether its homecoming or a wedding a or any other place that plays music and you would hear that song
I'm 53. So l know how ppl reacted. We all laughed. It was so unfair. He was frackin good actually and the world just spit on him. How many ppl doesn't sample like everything nowadays. Hugs from Sweden.
Yes! I remember that too. He got dogged and if u listen to him in our all white school you got dogged out too. Called him a poser and you'd be called one too . I only knew a couple songs but he's actually a really awesome person. He's a builder in Florida and really dang good one too. He'd be huge today. That was crappy . He was huge when MC Hammer was huge too. Long time ago. I feel old 😂
Everyone who laughed at him back in the day now love him. When this comes on at the party everyone starts dancing. 😂 just took like 20 years for people to realize.
"We are in the hood of UA-cam here." 😂❤ I saw this man live in '08/'09 and he was in his prime. He had the contracting business and the show, he was very fit, plus he was touring, so he was stupid excited about life -- his energy was huge, even though he was only doing a small-city outdoor gig for maybe 500 people. He looked confused for a split second about how hard the crowd went when he started, then he doubled our energy. During the Ninja Turtle Rap my friend started a successful mosh pit. He shook his head at that, but with a smile. He looked choked up at the end, when the crowd was cheering at his success and shouting praises. I was like: dang what a nice dude, good for him. It's always heartwarming to see one of the good guys winning, eh.
If you didn't know who Vanilla Ice was in the 90s you were definitely under a rock. Not only a classic but likely the most spoofed song for comedy as well.
Bro this dude is super rich, he's living off royalties. The album sold almost 10 million copies worldwide. But he's done other things including having a 9 year run on the DIY Network with his show The Vanilla Ice Project. It ended in 2019.
@@ericenglehardt1966That's okay. The way I see it, it's like donating 10% of your income in Sunday service to your local church. Invest that amount & God will take care of the rest.
Man,I just love your reactions. Good stuff! This song came out right around the time I was graduating from high school. I remember it was played on my senior class’ Grad Night on a cruise around SF Bay, where a bunch of us were doing the running man dance (don’t laugh, it was really big back then. The song was a huge hit. Most of us that lived through that time can still sing all the words. Anyway, keep up the great reaction videos.
I'm 50...51 tomorrow. Im from the inner city of StL and went to school in the suburbs. EVERYBODY!!!!!! Was groovin', rappin' dancing to this song! Somebody who was jealous started the joke and society ran with it. I didn't. Ice made one of the biggest songs ever. 🍻
Same age as you and went to school in south STL. You are dead on. That song exploded back then!! I remember crusin lindberg with my 10's poundin to this.
I agree. I remember thinking it was interesting/different a white guy doing rap, but it ended at that. It was all about the talent. Same as we didn't care that Darius Rucker was black and did rock and later country.
I think most of us saw the video on MTV before the radio~ it was an instant success. He only had a few big hits before he got robbed and run out of town by Shug Knight . He didn't walk away with much, I don't think. He went back to Miami and became a VERY talented and successful contractor. I still love this song. Great reaction!!
I'm glad I found myself in "the hood of youtube" Love the motivation and the fact you are putting the money back in to your own channel. Keep it up bro, you got big things coming.
He got sued by Queen and David Bowie for sampling this without permission. He kept insisting it was a coincidence, then finally admitted that it was sampled. The song is "Under Pressure" by Queen and David Bowie. in case you want to check it out.
Boogie!!!!! MY man! This was my intro to rap (being white and about 10 when this came out); I had the tape, posters, my first concert. Watching you eat this up brings me so much joy. THANK YOU!
Vanilla Ice made a movie called Cool As Ice. Saw him at a supercross race years ago. They had a celebrity race that he raced in that was in between the pro races.
He was great. I'm 57, and I was in the service stationed overseas when this came out. We all loved it, danced to it, played over and over. Deny it if you must; you're just lying to your self. This is a classic.
He is very rich today, took the money from his short lived fame and put it into real estate, he's a self-made multi millionaire. He still performs as well and he sounds as good as ever.
The bass like is from Queen/Bowie "under pressure," you should check it out. He went broke. Suge Knight went to his hotel room, held him upside down by his ankle over the railing & forced him to sign over the rights to ice ice baby or they were going to take him out. He went into hiding until Suge went to jail then told the story on 60 mins. This song sold more than Michael Jackson thriller making it the most sold album of all time. I'm shocked you've never heard it. It's played all the time. When it came out it was on the radio 3 times every hour, at every house party, I even memorized the dance moves to it with a buddy & we'd break it out at parties. Skinny girls are way more attractive. No big boots Judy's, skinny Minnies only. This song was a crossover that was played both on urban stations & pop.
This song changed the industry. He went before congress on a copyright situation because the groove was sampled from Queen. He argued that he changed it enough to qualify as his own work. The precedent set the groundwork for decades of free use sampling and copyright payments for 35 years now.
why? why would you ever wish that on someone. I’m sure he’s never heard snow and hopefully he never does, unlike this song he’s heard his whole life and pretends like this is the first time he heard it
@ I never mentioned anyone in his pear groups I mentioned the radio TV shows movies clubs dances elevators restaurants coffee bars you hear this song for the last 35 years which is why he’s listening to it today presumably for the first time which again I highly doubt
Rob ( Vanilla Ice) owns all the rights to all his music,boughr the righrs to David Bowie and Queen. He is balling in the real estate and remodeling business in South Florida.
Here's my old man speech ,back in my day we was listening to nwa and easy e well before vanilla came onto the scene. congrats on your channel taking off. I found you when you did Paul revere.

We didn't hear it on the radio, we first SAW it on MTV.
Saturday Morning Videos on NBC for those of us who’s parents didn’t have cable (no judgement 😂)
I remember those days. That was back when the "M" stood for Music instead of Moron.
@@jeremyallen9624 😂😂😂
True that, but without seeing him nobody cared.
Ahh the good old days 😢
Back in the day we heard/ watched a lot of our music first on MTV. Then it came on the radio, so we already knew what the artist looked like.
Back when mtv was about the music... now it's all pregnant teens and more idiocracy
He is cool as sh*t today. Hasn't aged. He makes big $$$ developing properties... Mad carpentry skills. Had a TV show
Also, if you haven't seen it, you need to watch his reaction to his own song and Jim Carrey's version.
He's still getting paid for this song ( heavy rotation ) and he owns the song-UNDER-PRESSURE-lock,stock and barrel. He gets money for Under-Pressure too.
I like the later rap song "boom" he did with "blood hound gang". He used his real name rob van Winkle on the track rather than vanilla ice because at that time he was trying to distance himself from the past.
@@kerry-j4mAre you for real?......I did not know that
I’m 50 and does my heart A LOT of good to see you younger cats dig any old school hip hop. We was happy about it back then and not mublin’ … feel me?
💯 I still listen to Kidd N Play, NWA, Ice Cube, Bel Biv Devoe, and just about anything old school Hip Hop, R&B or Soul especially 80s and 90s.
It’s so amazing seeing young people listen to good music haha Even Vanilla Ice lol

Same! Some songs just bring it all back. I'm class of '95
Yep! Was crazy popular!
He was briefly so big that his Ninja Turtle song was a monster
This song actually came out in the Summer of 1990. A few months after Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" 😅😅
Class of 91 represent! lol
Na, we didn’t think he was black because we understood what ‘Vanilla’ meant.🤔🤣😎
yep. That was what made us pay attention. He sounded good but we all knew Vanilla meant he was white.
Like Uncle Kracker, the name told the story 😂
haha, good one.
Perfectly said.
Also this was originally a B side to his cover of “Play that funky music White boy”
Say what you will about Vanilla Ice but the dude left a mark on hip hop history and people still know his name to this day.
I got clowned on for going to his concert but boy did he put on one hell of a show!
Well now you have to watch Jim Carrey impersonating Ice on In Living Color.
Yesssss😂😂
That’s the first thing I thought when the video started😂
ua-cam.com/video/fdtKBe7sM48/v-deo.html
Ice was honored that Jim Carrey even knew who he was.

Same. Signed, 53 year old Cuban female.
62 here..MTV
62 year old Caucasian here! I still love it!
For many it was a guilty pleasure (after the initial hype, haters took over). But EVERY time I hear it I enjoy it so much!
Yup. I'm a huge old school hip hop guy. WU tang Dre etc. I still know this whole song word for word
We lost our EVER LOVIN Minds! MTV video was before radio back then, we knew right away.
A lot of us first heard this on MTV. Yeah they used to actually play music videos!!!
Vanilla ice is now 50 - cool guy. Never blasted on news for bad behavior and gives back! Love him. ❤❤❤❤❤
He’s actually 57, born 1967 🙃
I was 19 when this dropped. Being a hip hop head I could tell he wasn't a black dude but that didn't matter. This was a massive joint in the summer of 1990 and its still a timeless classic.
Yep Feb 10,1971 here
The first ever rap song to top the Billboard Hot 100 at #1 was Vanilla Ice's "Ice Ice Baby" in 1990.
To be fair, back then, things were quite different. The young kids understood that anybody who would name themselves Vanilla Ice was a dead giveaway, lol.
Plus it was MTV prime play. Nobody hadn't seen the act

I still remember seeing Vanilla Ice in concert when I was young hahahaha He was the bomb back in the day.
please adjust the little screen a little higher so we can see all the captions. ty
Are you pretending like you’ve never heard this song either
I still listen to this to this day. It’s a great track and his flow is fire.
I believe he wrote these lyrics when he was 16 years old.❤
15 years old
@@randywells4583 He told that he was 16. Just watch his reaction to his own video.
This song changed the industry. He went before congress on a copyright situation because the groove was sampled from Queen. He argued that he changed it enough to qualify as his own work. The precedent set the groundwork for decades of free use sampling and copyright payments for 35 years now.
Now you have to check out "Informer" by Snow.
why?
why would you ever wish that on someone.
I’m sure he’s never heard snow and hopefully he never does,
unlike this song he’s heard his whole life and pretends like this is the first time he heard it
Nah Im good.lol
@@msabccbscnnoanfoxnewsThe man is 25 years old. I'm guessing no one in his peer group is crankin' Vanilla Ice. smh
@ I never mentioned anyone in his pear groups I mentioned the radio TV shows movies clubs dances elevators restaurants coffee bars you hear this song for the last 35 years which is why he’s listening to it today presumably for the first time which again I highly doubt
lol that dude was a dork
I really like the way u get into the music & the expression on ur face. U are by far the best reaction person I've seen. Thank u for a great time
