Episode: Vanilla Ice Interview: Tupac, The 90's Generation & Selling 160 Million Records
About Vanilla Ice: Robert Matthew Van Winkle (born October 31, 1967), known professionally as Vanilla Ice, is an American rapper, actor, and television host. Born in South Dallas, and raised in Texas and South Florida, Ice released his debut album, Hooked, in 1989 on Ichiban Records, before signing a contract with SBK Records, a record label of the EMI Group which released a reformatted version of the album under the title To the Extreme. Ice's 1990 single "Ice Ice Baby" was the first hip hop single to top the Billboard charts.
You can’t help but to like the guy... he’s just a down to earth dude who lives what he does
Vanilla Ice is a personal role model of mine. I ride a motorcycle because of him and the Terminator. I ride a cruiser for Arnold and a Kawasaki Ninja for my boy Vanilla. If it wasn't for the Album "Hard to Swallow" I probably wouldn't have been able to get through some horrible times I had in life. Thankfully my life isn't like that much anymore, more of a "Mind Blowin" and "Hot Sex" or "To The Extreme" most of the time. I love you Vanilla, never change bro.
. .
I hear ya. He is a humble guy, talks about his lesson learned and still learning.
The 90s were definitely the last of the greatest decades!
💪🏻🇺🇸💙
For sure! Born in 81!
I was lucky enough to be a young teen in the 90’s the best ever decade
U can say that again
Literally 1 of the greatest interviews in the history of You Tube
They should give him his money back
Word
Mad respect for Rob Vanwinkle. Extremely intelligent and humble & honest as it gets. Love his advice about how to NEVER take life too serious. LOVE his show The Vanilla Ice Project. Dude's passion for designing not flipping as I thought before watching this interview, is just amazing and will wow you.
💪🏻🇺🇸💙
This interview was amazing. I’m sorry to you guys who missed it. 😔
Vanilla Ice is poetic. “Ice, Ice Baby” is poetry.
Yeah written by Mario “Chocolate” Johnson
Rob, don't know if you'll ever even read this. But you survived some crazy stuff in the 90s and after yet, came out on top. We are of the same generation and when Ice Ice Baby came out, I was growing up in the northeast and every single one of my black, white and hispanic friends were blasting that song out of the woofers in their trunk like crazy. You were on fire and no one can deny or take that away from you! I'm glad to see where you've ended up and are happy in life with your family! In the end, that's all that really matters. God bless brother and keep the positive flowing! A friend from the 90s generation....
Nice comment my friend was 12 when he blew up and yes positive is possible live it! 90s last if the great decades 😢❤😊
Agreed.. not many people can do this
"Never stop working." I cant believe Vanilla Ice just motivated me!
this man is a living legend
Lying legend??? Only on this subject
Best Vanilla Ice interview on YT. The interviewer it good too. He asked a question, let Vanilla talk and interjected at the right moments to keep the dialogue going. Can't help but like Vanilla and how mellow he is as a person.
I was 13 in 91 and i remember roller skating with my hammer pants to this song
Me 2😜
Me 2😊
I fucking love that dude.and that song is still as DOPE as it was back then.calling the radio stations all day trying to get through to request that song even though they played it all day
He’s a liar
PBD interviews everyone. Love this guy
I always like how honest vanilla is .He has turned out to be a good role model for people..Excellent interview 👍
Such a good person, smart, innovative, everything!! I love that he found a new passion! He is so passionate about “home”, love how passionate he is .
The average person has a 1000 reincarnations
Loved the trophies!! I remember presenting him with a trophy back in ‘95 or ‘96 for winning his first motocross race at the Palm Beach Motocross track!
This guy has some serious talent and work ethic
He knocked this interview out of the park!!!!
One thing that He said that hit home; I had a boss once that was spending a huge amount in his home and interior in a time where money wasn’t going around as easily. He said “when you’re poor living check to check where you gonna be? Home right?” I said yes that is true. He said “then that better be a palace, your sanctuary so it better be a place where you can be comfortable, proud and live in!” That always made sense.
I don’t think this guy gets enough credit for just still being here. I can’t imagine the entire country criticizing me and dealing with what he did and coming out on top with his own TV show. This is what makes him a legend IMO
This is a great interview, respectful and humble you are.
The D.O.C. is from Dallas too I think
Love how ice is real with everything!
Especially when he said, "I ain't a white rapper!" I don't see color!
Dude has a great story
Congratulations Vanilla Ice!!
On your success!!
He’s a liar
"I'm not a white rapper by the way, I'm a rapper. You don't label music with colors, it's made for your ears, not your eyes."
Preach, Ice! 👏
I have so much respect for this dude. Everyone tried to bring him down but in the end he came out on top and he's living his best life.
Vanilla ice so awesome wish he'd make more music and rap
@Vanilla Ice, Mad Respect for your amazing success & Blessed Life!
I'm digging the green I love vanilla ice
This was a great interview! Someone who is real! I have been a fan from day 1. Always followed your success from hitting hard times and getting right back on your feet.
💪🏻🇺🇸💙
I rarely care for celebrities but I'm glad his doing good and living large 👍

This is A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!
Hey, man, thanks for the great childhood.
I am a fan of vanilla ice I like this interview
After I pressed the like button, I noticed that the name of the channel is Vanilla Ice and it's Rob himself. Very nice.
Here in the Netherlands, the Vanilla Ice project is now on tv, and the positivity, the fun and play, the constructive energy. It's as sunny as the Florida weather.
Great interview.
36:59 the Tupac Part
Thanks
I am 46. I would do the same thing. I went to movies to see Breaking. I absolutely loved the 90's....CRAZY TIME!!!! Skating Rink We would BATTLE ......Wish I could go back sometimes
I remember it like it was yesterday 1991 everybody going through the projects I was in first grade everybody singing Ice Ice Baby
This guy Vanilla Ice is awesome!
Great interview. Love Ice - he's a pioneer whether he's too humble to admit or not.
100%
What a great interview! Thanks Patrick.
90s the best decade
This was a great interview . My respect for Rob aka Vanilla Ice grew big time. His work ethic is Krazy "I love it"
Cool as Ice
I was watching your video of ice ice baby. My girl is Asian . She 36 and she knew every single step that you and your dancer did. I didn’t even know she ever heard of you. I remember you telling the story about suge I’m from southie I worked for a southie crew who had to pay tributes to Whitey Bulger . I be so angry you could fry a egg on my head. We knew he was blowing the FBI and we didn’t want him to have the FBI in our business. Whitey reminded me of suge . A the gulf war broke out so it was my way to escape it. But you had to deal with that. I’m sorry man you are a excellent talent and great job on the mansions. Stay safe.
Great Interview!!!!!
Awesome interview Ice!
Genius This is great
This is the Dopest interview ever!!!!❤
Very impressive Rob!! Keep up the great work
Great interview. Nice guy.
Amazing interview, for one hour you make me back in time when in 90-92 I was playing your record on every single night, almost. You guys mark the 90s !
hes actually full of wisdom.
Vanilla Ice is an AWESOME DUDE and he's REAL and that's rare, esp during pop culture and the beginning of hip hop, which I love. I remember my friends and I would ride on the car doors, leaning on the car top going down 59 in Houston, jamming to Ice Ice Baby! It was an exceptional time in history, in my opinion!
He's still gorgeous as he was back then, even more so now, plus more importantly, he's A TRUE BLUE MAN!
VERY TALENTED!
LOVE YOU VANILLA ICE‼️
Now that Snoop is death row, he should give Rob his points/rights back for his music. This is such a great interview.
Great interview. Under viewed
Vanilla is in great shape!✌
I was in high school when he's album came out and experience The Ice Age movement! It was fkg awesome even to today! He reminds me of Gene Simmons from Kiss, still alive and so smart about the way they view life in general as realist. The people who truly understood the difference between what is fame, fictions and life itself! They live to tell the tail! Respect man!
The wrath of the iceman!!!!
I didn't know The Vanilla Ice Project tv show existed, I'm going to start watching it tonight! Looking forward to it.
Fantastic❤
I love this interview. God bless you 🙏
The most envied rap artist his time. The reason they wanted him out. But he is smart to have invested much and lived through.
i hope to see you again in Czech Republic , the security doesnt alowed me to get subscibe from you on my KTM hat, but anyway the show was super great! Thanks! it was the year 2005 i think
Vanilla 4 ever big up !
Man what a amazing interview. 👏
Cool dude.
Very cool interview 👍 👌
Been a fan of Vanilla Ice since the beginning. STILL a fan of Vanilla Ice to this day. That said? I loved Hard to Swallow. Despite people hating on that record, I love it! I bought it the day it was released back in October of 1998. When I found out my favorite producer (Ross Robinson) produced it, it made me love it even more! I honestly wish Ice would do more metal stuff. I'd love to hear it!
It's crazy how big ice ice baby was
I grew up in the 90s 2000s never listened to the song but still herd it
Still a awesome entertainer ! Thank you for a great show , I'm a huge fan . I hope to get to meet you you some day ! Blessings to you guys keep up the great work !
What a wise person all time best ICE!!!
Fell in love when I watched Vanilla Ice Goes Amish!
Love you Ice! I feel this interview is old...
It's still INSANE!!!! how the song blew up and BLEW THE DOORS OFF THE WORLD!!
The Bside was played by a DJ and.....
BAM!!!!
My fave song of the LP was and is HOOKED!!!
I remember I hadn't hear the LP since I had the tape in '90 (my brother did)
Once I saw Vanilla Ice Project....
I got stuck on watching that show and while having a but of Rum or Gin... I was "Lemme rock that!" N went on YT!
As soon as i heard those songs again! I was
GAWDDAMN!!!!!
His LP was FIRE!!!! it sucks that sooooo many people just ICE ICE....
But there are sooo many gems on there!
I've met maybe 2 people EVER!!!!
that when I sing RAAAAHHH REY RU... REEE RAY RAH!!!
And they can finish it
Glad seeing you living life to the fullest. My problem is living life to serious. Loved the interview!!.👍
You and me both, Brother.
You are awesome! 😘 miss you and hope to see you soon!❤
Yesterday is history, tomorrow's a mystery! Today is a gift, that's why it's called the present!!!!!
I bought the album Hard to Swallow the day it was released. Still have it in my car right now. If u haven't heard it go get it. Not the easiest album to get physical copy of though. But it's dark and heavy. GOOD ALBUM
Yesterdays History Tomorrows History. Bloody love that line right there.
Awesome ❤
Hes right the 90s was the last great decade when america was booming
Ecuador 🖐👌
For every great movement and success, there's always someone either trying to cash in on it or treat it down. Still one of my favorite tunes from the day.
I like how he said “I’m not a white rapper, I’m a rapper.”
Ninja Turtles are still in my kids generation now. Ice was right....I remember the day I heard ICE ICE BABY. THEY CALLED ME VANILLA in school. Was my nickname...Lmao
I used to dance to vanilla ice back when ice ice baby came out. And roller skate. What amazing times.
Loved the 90s.... would go back in a heart beat.
For a 16 year old kid to write that!!!!
That's DEEP!!!
even my songs at 20 something were no where near as descriptive and sooo well done!!!
Hes a PRO!!!
there is and ONLY EVER WILL BE 1...
ICE!.... And that's Vanilla!!!
Cube and T I LOOOVVEEEE!!!!
but he KING'd the ICE in the name of an MC
90s was the last great decade
im black, i grew up in a all black ghetto, and i always thought vanille ice is cool, and he's one of the dopest white boys out on the streets 💯
@7:47 YES!!!!
