      It became very trendy to mock and bash him, as epitomized by a "In Loving Color" sketch with Jim Carrey. Within a matter of years, people went from avid fans to denying they had ever bought his albums. By 1993 he was a punchline. As such, his impact and influence has been forgotten. I would argue he was a sort of crossover act, not for his race but for bridging the 1980s to the "gangsta" era of the 1990s, and fell victim to the obsession for "street cred" and such that The Fat Boys, Run DMC, Beastie Boys, and others never had to contend with.

    I still get shocked whenever someone listens to this for the first time lol I was 7 years old when this came out and I absolutely LOVED it!! I know people made fun of him but I still love this song today lol And yeah, like others have said, pretty much a one-hit wonder so no other recommendations for Vanilla Ice. But here are some other suggestions:
    1) Snow - Informer
    2) House of Pain - Jump Around
    3) Cypress Hill - Insane in the Brain
    4) Kris Kross - Jump
    And here’s a random one that has nothing to do with anything above 😂:
    Xavier Naidoo ft RZA - Ich Kenne Nichts
    It’s a German artist (ft. RZA from Wu-Tang) and the song’s lyrics are in German and English. I was living in Germany when this song came out, that’s how I came across it. Love this one too!!
    Edit: Ooh, you also gotta check out Marky Mark - Good Vibrations!! Knew I was forgetting something 😃

      He already did *MC Hammer* but I guess you could add *Salt & Pepper (Push it) (Shoop) (whatta man) (let's talk about sex)* to your list

All the kids there were listening to the typical 80’s music. Much more into the glam rock and pop stuff. “Walk This Way” did well a few years before, but we weren’t listening to pure early rap like NWA where I lived. But this…this was the song that broke through. It was the gateway song to the rap genre in my area 😄

      @@ThePWHustle we considered the Beastie boys a boy band, along with Mike and the Mechanics. I am aware of when the Beastie boys came out and when Vanilla Ice came out. The Beastie boys were a group of boys in a band. Vanilla Ice was singular like a lot of early hip hop artists. I'm not telling you that you are wrong or I am wrong. I think this is about a cultural difference. Not one of color but of lifestyle. I'm a Southern California native, NYC seems to see the with frenetic, angry energy and I didn't care for it. I did Heavy Metal, Hard Rock and when I did listen to early hip hop it was skating music. It was energetic and fun for movement. I was a big fan of Rappers Delight and a few others too, but if I wanted the anger or the edge it's always Heavy Metal, even thirty years later
