People clown Vanilla Ice all the time, but EVERYONE knew the words to this song back in the day
Facts
Facts Facts!
EVERYBODY!
Seminole51 my son & I saw Vanilla Ice at the Casino just last year. Great show.
Back in the day nothing! I can't have been the only one able to do the whole song like it was yesterday!
"When someone says 'stop', I never know if it's in the name of love, hammer time, or if I'm supposed to collaborate and listen." 🤣
Ha when the kids say stop to each other I switch those up! Love it! Sometimes I swap in the spice girls Stop to mix it up!!! 😂
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂✊😂
🤣🤣🤣‼️‼️
Lol. Right
"I thought he was black."
_Ice just shed a tear hearing that!_
I laughed out Loud to this....I bet he did.
I thought the same thing ! Best compliment ever :-D
Vanilla? It's a clue.
With a name like Vanilla Ice hahahahhahahaaa
@@octavius8562 you’re taking their age for granted.
Great Reaction!
He actually was singing, " If my rhyme was a drug I'd sell it by the gram!"🙃
I am always amused when people think Vanilla Ice is a " One Hit Wonder" This song was such an explosive single hit for him it caused a lot of people to not take time to realize he was more than a " One Hit Wonder"...
Vanilla Ice has 25 hit songs, 6 studio albums, 1 live album, 2 compilation albums, 3 video albums, 24 music videos and a remix album... but " Ice Ice Baby" was the FIRST hip hop single to top the billboard charts. It helped diversify hip hop by introducing it to the mainstream white audience and you could say the rest is history!
Vanilla Ice ( a.k.a. Rob Van Winkle) Is not only a rapper, singer, producer and actor he is also a construction contractor and has a t.v. show " The Vanilla Ice Project" Where he does home improvement reno's so he can " flip and sell" homes.
Wow... thanks for sharing that!
The record executives did Ice dirty. I'm glad he's doing well now because The Surreal Life was rough
don't care what anyone say... this is a hip hop classic... everyone knew the words to this song
I dont remember anyone on earth saying it isn't considered it was made before 2009 and is part of the hip hop genre
@@HighAsHeckPriestess ice ice baby was released in 1989
Rappers delight is a hip hop classic!
@@elizabethodom41 Thank You
He got sued by David bowie for having the first bass riff almost the same as from under pressure with queen
This was THE song when it came out. Everyone was jamming to it and if they say they weren't, THEY ARE LYING!!!!!
Yup! and they STILL Lyin'
REAL TALK, we didnt see color. We heard something an we loved it
Still love it! 😂🤷♀️
FACTS!
Yes It WAS!!
I was laughing my ass off in the beginning, thinkin “these dudes gonna be so surprised when this song kinda bangs”
People hate so hard, but to be real, this had a great beat and a few pretty sweet lyrics. “Will it ever stop? Yo, I don’t know. Turn off the lights, and I glow.” And “Stop, Collaborate and Listen” is still pretty sweet. Respect.
I actually use "Stop! Collaborate, and listen" as my attention getter for my 8th graders. I say "Stop!" And they repeat the rest, they know it's time to work.
@@shaydia damn, respect
@@erwinorellano34 you have to make learning fun and goofy at times. If it's too serious, your students will turn off.
@@shaydia I agree...I mean, I collaborate and listen!
It was due to attacks from other rappers and record labels.
Vanilla Ice should have never been ashamed of that song. It is an absolute classic rap song.
The only rap song 🎵 Vanilla Ice should be embarrassed by is the Reggae Rap Rasta Style . 😂 😜 😆
Please. He stole the beat.
Umm isn't that the same as sampling today?
@@lilcheckrs09 No. Sampling is done with the original artist's permission. This was out and out stealing...that he tried to pass off as his own....then got taken to court..and lost. This is all available on Google. It is very well known. Listen to Under Pressure by Queen...that is who sued him.
@@kathleenclark815 Yeah he didn 't clear the sample before using it
No matter what people say, growing up to this song it was banging in everyone's cars, parties and people loved it.
Still love it!!!! Word
That’s because ppl liked the beat.
@@heavensent1241 👍
Sooo TRUE! Got married last year had the DJ pumping that shit and the dance floor was packed! Old and young getting down to V.I. BABY!
Self driving car runs man over
I like kids appreciating our 90s music.
😎 Generation X
Can’t lie, I was at the concert & he rocked it !!!
I wish I had been there
@@erwinorellano34 samee
"I thought he was black" omg that was to funny😂😂😂
Love it!!!!!
And who didn’t when we heard him on the radio for the first time back in the day? 😂
I’m just now noticing that they literally kept him in the dark in the beginning of the video to surprise everyone.
That's right, VANILLA ice lol not chocolate 😍
omg me too laughing so hard. Like - ummm yeah. I remember having a lot of friends who were very dismissive of this guy, because he was white. So funny. But yet, everybody knew the words.
"I thought he was black" lol that was hilarious..you guys rock.
I was waiting for that!!!!!
Dude is called Vanilla Ice. Because he was as white as vanilla ice cream. 😁
😂😂 u guys are funny
Kevin, I bet a lot of people thought that Eminem was the first white dude to make it big in rap. Unfortunately for Vanilla Ice, his career was short.
Jajaajjajaja
Hammer and Vanilla were known as the best dancers in hiphop as far as MC's during the peak of this era around 1990-1991.
Alert!! Remember how we were in this particular time in our country!
Music can unite. Let's get back to this. ❤️
Everytime Vanilla Ice throws his head back, it reminds me of the "In Living Colour" rapper sketch with Jim Carrey LOL
😂😂😂.
hahaha
The first thing I thought lol
Yeah, I can't hear this without singing along "I'm just too white, white baby"
First time I saw that episode, for the first couple seconds I thought it was actually Vanilla Ice until he launched his sneaker into the air.
I am starting a twinsthenewtrend fan club!
I cannot tell you how much y’all do for my mental health. And the fact you’re never crude or inappropriate is so rare, you are just awesome.
Fun fact: Queen’s “Under Pressure” plays at the beginning.
Amber,I’d give you 1000 likes if I could for your comment. Well mannered needs praising and I praise the Twins!
THey are very genuine. Hence likeable.
Love the twins! Tim and Fred are a much needed breath of fresh air.
@Anita Darnell they have so many demographics covered here: older women, young kids, and my husband loves them, too! They are an absolute treat.
SO TRUE!!!! GREAT FOR MY MENTAL HEALTH 💜💜❤❤🧡🧡🙏🙏
Ice was an entertainer no doubt about it.
I was in high school when this song came out you couldn't escape it . vanilla Ice was the bomb back in my day not only he had bars but had game that was hard to touch!
He was on the seen before M&M .
I'm so glad this is an honest review. Everyone makes fun of him and this song, but it's actually a really good song.
😆 omg.... I just LUV the way these 👯♀️ twins👯♂️ react to music that blows em away ‼️‼️ Especially the dude on the left w/the do-rag. He is feelin’ it
GenuinE‼️ ❤️❤️❤️ it✌🏼
Yes it is!! I’m so happy they reviewed it without any noise in their ears and they LOVED it Lololol I’ve already watched it about seven times because I love their pure reaction plus I love listening to this song...Vanilla Ice kind of screwed himself unfortunately because he actually was very very good
Word!👍🏿
Mandy McManus only because he sampled from rick james before the industry said it was okay
@@thehobotographer6860 On this song? He sampled Bowie/Queen on this one. He wasn't the first to sample songs. It seems like he got sued and won somehow.
Jim Carrey impersonating him on in living color is hilarious
Alright stop, while i tie up my laces lol
Omg, I loved "In Living Color". The twins should actually react to some of their skits! So damn funny! All my friends would get together every week to watch it!!!
Ahhhhhh THANK YOU!!!!!! All you have to type in is jim carrey v and it comes up
I was thinking the same thing 😂
and probably is responsible for killing ice's career
You guys were so cute when you realized Vanilla Ice was white. It's in his name! I waited for your reaction and was delighted!
I cant explain how much I love seeing younger people get into the songs I grew up to!!! SO great!
Boyyyyy back in '91, we used to rap ice ice baby word for word on the bus coming from football games...🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈
And people still will secretly in their cars!!!
Lol. Yessssss!!!
Omg yes, on the busses back from games, and we all said, at one point, “I thought he was black?!”
The year i was born 😂 but i still remember the song being very popular when i was a kid
CANT LIE.
"They had some cool dance moves back in the day". I feel so old, lol
Same here, we definitely were dancing like him 30 years ago.
Now in 2020, knee and back issues have destroyed my 1990 dance moves🤣😳
😂😂OMG same here. I was in killin these dances in middle school. I’m literally in bed watching this video laying on a heating pad SMH.
This is how I still dance to this day hahaha I was a child when all this music came out. Born in the 80’s hahaha
Seriously - I still try to dance like this! lol
Right?!
I love this. Does my heart good to see young folks giving out music a chance and not just immediately shutting it down
They need to watch Jim Carey on " In living Color" do his Vanilla Ice, it's pretty hilarious.
That skit is a classic!!
I'm white.
And I'm captitalizin'
On a trend that's currently risin'
Fuck man I watched that live and was LMFAO.
I was young as hell. I was so excited about their show ( in living color )after watching I'm a get you sucka.
“I thought he was black!”
He’s VANILLA Ice yo lol
I suppose Jaleel White is white as well. Fr tho, I get what u saying.
This is where I questioned if they'd really never heard it before, because come on, doesn't everyone know that Vanilla Ice is white??? But then I realized how old the song is and how young these guys are. LOL Love it. This song was my jam in the 8th grade. Damn I'm old.
@@josie3s yep, that’s right about when it was my jam too! I feel you! 😭😂
Notice it took 25seconds to show VI's face, meanwhile you already heard the hook, beat and he spat a couple bars
Mannnnn!!!!😂😂😂😂😂
VANILLA ICE FOR PRESIDENT: He collaborates, he listens, and if you have a problem he’ll solve it 🤣
Rick Astley is better coz he will never give you up
now you know where John Cena got his in ring character from !
Lmao
No millie vanillie or how ever you spell it..... they'll just blame it on the rain
I needed that
I was young and dance maniac when this song hit the World stage. People all over the World went nuts over Vanilla Ice. Epic moment in Music History. Glad to see you both enjoyed this song. Respect from 🇨🇦💕
There's a reason this was, for its time, the biggest song ever. We'd never heard anything like it before. Vanilla Ice is a huge reason hip-hop is as popular as it is today
Ice was before his time, people didn’t know how to take him, he could dance better than most.
He was a better dancer than rapper.
@@noless you're wrong you need to actually listen to his albums, better than most rappers in the last 20 years
He can ride a motorbike better than most!
Thats why he was on tour with MC Hammer because they both had the same style at the same time
I think Ice was behind his time, so to speak. He hit it big in 1990, about the same time that gangsta rap did, which made all that crazy clothing and choreographed dancing look ridiculous. A year or two earlier, Ice might have been criticized less.
Can’t lie, if you grew up late 80s early 90s you still know all the words!!!
My brother used to make sit at home and record Yo! MTV raps. His teen years were the 80s my teen years were the 90s. He frisbees my cassette of this. B side was “Stop That Train”
@@atlblissxxxpresents6147 Stop that Train was awesome
I can rap every single word of it. And I LMAO watching my sons cringe. 😆
I wish people would stop saying that everyone knew the words. LOL 🤦 I was born in 84 and this was my first time listening to the song. The only part I ever heard was Ice Ice baby and that was enough for me not to wanna hear it. I still feel the same. 😂
I wasn’t and I still do!
I was stationed in South Korea when this first hit. The clubs were PACKED when this came on. Ice was IT!!! 👏😂
No one had ever heard a song like this before. It brought rap back to life.
"I thought he was black!" Hahahaha......his name is VANILLA ice!!
if that name wasused today it would be called a racist name
@@temujinkhan6326 Too much PC crap goin on.
Robert Van Winkle
I thought the same thing! I was like really?
Barry White? What's your point?
People want to act like they weren't jamming to this now but EVERYONE did back in the day! Lol
Right! Everyone loved it back in the day.
It’s still a guilty pleasure for me. Any time it comes on my Pandora, I start dancing instead of just cleaning. Lol
This and “Can’t Touch This” were my favorite songs as a kid. Lmao.
Play this at a gathering of folks, between the ages of 30 and 60... they still get excited and jam out to it. I've watched live rock bands cover this; always a crowd pleaser.
That album didn't go 7x Platinum by itself
Vanilla Ice and En Vogue opened for MC Hammer at the UIC Pavillion in Chicago. That was one of the Hottest concerts I've ever seen. They all brought down the House!! The entire audience was up on their feet dancing and going crazy in the aisles. Loved those days!
This boy has a nice flow and his vocabulary and vernacular are colorful and on point .
You know you’re old when 2 young men haven’t heard Ice Ice baby before and you still rock it on occasion.
No, you know you're old when you have the original album & it's a cassette.
They never heard this??? HAHAHAHA you have got to be kidding me!! 😂😂😂😂
These are children not young men
Especially when the kids say “back in the day!” That is when I felt old!!🤣🤣
People nowadays give him so much crap, the guy sold millions of records, yes records not downloads, had #1 hit and was known allover the world, respect to Vanilla ice from Australia 🇦🇺
I was disgusted at the backlash that vanilla ice got. All these rappers were in their feelings cuz he was white,fine as hell and can dance. He earned that coin. It was a great song. They were mad they loved it on the low.
He followed this up with NINJA RAP
from TMNT movie
Him and Mc Hammer set the world on fire
@@mattheavener8469 for about a month and a half! Then it was on to the next thing poppin
Him and hammer was sampling music they didn't get rights too was the issue
This shit was tight. The music, the lyrics, the beat, the moves. All of it.
Was there in the clubs when it came out. Very little got people moving the way this song did.
So he was not ACTUALLY from the streets as he implied. He still knocked this one out of the park.
He sampled without credit and it cost him but the song is his.
Does my heart good to see you guys vibing on this track. You guys not knowing the controversy surrounding it before hearing it proves it stands up as a hip hop classic, as most people tried to pretend it didn't.
Check out “Under Pressure” by Queen & David Bowie. That’s the song that is sampled in this one. Love you guys!! Keep on going!
I was just about to say this very thing 🤣 th-cam.com/video/UWkIY7-FFTY/w-d-xo.html
Just learned that Vanilla owns Under Pressure now. Bought it for 4mil.
I think they already reacted to that.
I don't know if they realised or not, but they have already checked out Under Pressure about 8 months ago.
They already did, Queen live at Wembley edition if I recall
He's a contractor now and has a show were he remodels maga mansions. It's on DIY channel. You can stream it. It's called the Vanille Ice Project. He really does some amazing things to these mansions.
He is actually really good, too. I was pretty impressed with his work.
He does killer renovation work! Vanilla Ice Project !!!
Watched him on a show where he stayed with the Amish and did some renovation with/for them. He was much respectful to them. Hes a really decent guy.
Lascie Thiesing I saw that! He was very gracious to them!
Alex Vanilla Ice is living out his calling because the show is still on television, and he still does an amazing job on these homes!
And on Nov. 3, 1990, rap cemented its finally unignorable mainstream influence with its first-ever No. 1 single on the Billboard Hot 100: Vanilla Ice's “Ice Ice Baby.”
That's the thing that kind of gets lost in the history of Hip Hop... there were so many people responsible for bringing it to the mainstream and perpetuating the sound...paving the way for others. That 85-95 span is pure gold... Run DMC, Beastie Boys, NWA, Public Enemy, Vanilla Ice, MC Hammer, Cypress Hill... Tribe... even Rage... and I know I'm missing a ton of others.... But everybody was doing their thing.
"I thought he was black!" I knew they would be shocked by that! "ICE ICE, BABY!"
😂😂😂
Yes, cracked me up!
But the clue is in the name - Vanilla.
🤣🤣🤣🤦
You'd think "VANILLA" ICE would be a clue lol.
I know Vanilla Ice personally and he still has bars. He wrote this song when he was around 16. A classic
Yeah, you don't know him.
🤣
He may have wrote the lyrics but let's discuss that ripped off beat
ya i know him personally too....🙄
Jennifer Alexander he did rip off the beat but queen/bowie still got paid
I was getting ready to head out the door for school in fourth grade and my best friend comes knocking at the door " dude turn to MTV" and there it was. The walk to school was a fun one.
This was my teenage years, great to see you guys loving it. 😉✌
“This guys got bars”.😂😂 If only these kids knew the ridicule he faced at the time.
Funny thing is blacks accept him more than whites.
Look at Eminem they calling em a trailblazer but forgetting who crossover first into black community hip hop.
Yeah, he was mocked after he smashed the charts with the biggest selling rap single of all time and cashed out. The sample introduced a ton of people to “Under Pressure” too!
KobraThaDon beastie boys, right?
@@jacobm2625 Beastie boys was a group but VI wave was higher he was treated like he was the white mc hammer😂😂😂
He had much Pain for sure
If you guys are checking out 90s classics, please react to House of Pain “Jump Around” 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 The anthem of my youth!!!
👍🏽
Yesssss
A lot of good other HoP choices too.
Yaaaass!
Yaaaaaaas!
I love these guys passion and excitement for music, it is uplifting and infectious !
You 2 r killing it. Love the respect
I'm 47 and when they play this in the club everyone loves it.
Facts!
Lmfao😂😂😂😂😂
I remember it well mike 😊 I’m 44 now. Amazing song back in the day
I was probably the 1% that looked at the rest of y'all and started cracking up,,,,,,,,,,,
Hell yes
We need “Snow, Informer.” Gotta do it. Thumbs me up, guys and gals. 👌👌👌
Gregg Walmsley YES OMG 🤘🏻 great song
YES YES YES!!!
Hahah yes! No one knew the lyrics to that one. Hahah
I just suggested the same thing before seeing your comment. *lol* Won't that just be a treat!!!
@@jodiebetts9183 We knew the first word... LOL!
lol.i remember back in 1993 high school, all wearing big Michael Jordan T-shirt and baseball cap,and with radio in classroom: ice ice baby.
Nice to see someone react to this without the baggage of the controversy associated with it.
I clicked so fast for this one. 🤣❤️
saaaaame 😂😂😂
I might have danced along - badly.
Same, but proooobably not for the same reason, lol
Me too. Haha! 😊
Me too!
The Message by Grandmaster Flash. Paul Revere by Beastie Boys. Rapper’s Delight by Sugerhill Gang
Yessss!!!
Yeah rappers delight🤣👏
Yeah Paul Revere for sure.
Yes! Beastie Boys "Paul Revere"!
Yesssss! I have begged so many reaction channels to do both of these! ESPECIALLY Rappers Delight!! Know every word to it- has the album as a kid- listened to it constantly! And Paul Revere! 🎤Just he and his horsie and quart of beer.. 🎤🤣😉
He was the man back in the day. The woman loved him all races . I sat in his 5.0 in Chicago
Im old enough to be ya'lls momma (48 in three days). I cannot begin to tell you how much i love watching you two react and respect all the music i grew up listening to and still loveso well! Yall are great!
No offense "kids" ( i'm 60) but it makes me feel good to see ya'll appreciating old school music. Love your videos.
I'm 53 and scrolling through the comments. I see a bunch of older people taking great joy in watching these young guys discovering and enjoying the music from our youth. It doesn't seem like there's young people their age making any comments? It's all older people saying "Check this song out!" I can't explain it, but it's just fun!
Yup, I love watching these young men find joy in the music I grew up listening to. (Age 59) I am new to your channel have you listened to
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody?
I'm a bit older than you, and I couldn't agree more! These guys are great.
@@fumblebunny1993 Well said, Fumble Bunny! I find that young people these days are far more likely to reach back for, listen to, and enjoy "our" music than my students in past decades. People bash millenials and Gen. Z'ers, but I find them to be far more eclectic and accepting in their musical choices and attitudes than their parents. Glad they're making such great choices for entertainment! It's a hard word, and music gets us through it. It's the soundtrack of our lives, and our playlist should be as diverse and rich as we all are! Have a great day!
Brad87788 Yup Brad me too
Yes, Vanilla Ice did his thing back then. Even if some people don't want to admit it.
Stealing bass line from queen and trying to deny it,I good lol. Much did that cost him
@@wullieman That's true. He had to learn the hard way. But he was still very talented.
So happy that you like this one .... the cool thing about you guys is that you dont judge any artist
No matter what people want to say now this was the jam back in the day.
Oddly enough, vanilla ice went on to have a successful house flipping career. He had a tv show and everything!
Ha! Like when he squatted in his own house to create reality tv drama?
Except that never happened
He is smart I give him that
Johnny Emerson LOL ok. I guess the one hit wonder ownss a legendary queen song too. He’s absolutely disgusting. Try googling , you chilrdren.
Y'all need to check out Cypress Hill "Insane in the Membrane"
YES!!
Lol
Rock solid classic.
Cypress Hill - Insane in the Brain
Serious!!
So, I remember waiting for it to come on the radio and tryna push record so fast so you don't miss anything at the start...on a cassette tape recording over anything and everything.
In the hopes the DJ didn’t say a word before the song ended...
Play this anywhere and watch anyone over 30 go full ice mode! Hand movements and all. 👏
If anyone says they didnt love that song when it first came out, they lie.
I can honestly say I am not a fan. Not my stuff at all, on the other hand my eldest daughter loved it!
This song was wack then and now. I swore this guys were sarcastic with liking this.
I don't like this song I prefer the other one
Exactly 💯, black, white, green you liked it. LMAOOOOO
Shit! I ended up buying the album
"Bruh, I thought he was black!"
Me : * Laughs in millennial *
This is a treat
He got bars!
Jesus christ, you can tell these kids dont know anything about rhymes
Did these guys grow up in a convent? Who hasn't heard any the songs they play? Lol
He said, "Who's this, Eminem 2.0?" hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
@@godisgreat9622 basically, they weren’t allowed secular music growing up and now they’re older they probably use streaming sites which don’t offer up classics if you don’t know about them.
Thanks to this ’reaction generation’, we get to see all the white people judged for being ‘racist’ for saying some black people ‘sound white’, exonerated.
This song was blasting from EVERY car when it came out.Metal,disco,hip hop,country-didn’t matter.This song hit that hard,it was contagious!
I can't believe i can still remember the words to this, word for word!, lol!
"I thought he was black." Everyone who heard this song for the first time in 1990
Yup! The Rick Astley of rap.
He thought he was too.
Factz
Yup!!
Really? What'd you think the "Vanilla" meant? I didn't think he was black.
This song was so big, even people who didn't like rap knew every word to it!
For real! A friend of mine can do the whole thing word for word, and he's a Korean American.
Not me. The song was huge but I was 8 in 1990 & I listened to a radio station that didn't play top 40 (in the car my mom played oldies & my dad played classical). I'd never seen this video before today! My family didn't have cable (long story) and once the internet let us look for videos I never thought to look for this song.
That's true it was hit at the time and listening to it now, it still got my foot tapping to the beat
This song was not just HUGE in the States but WORLDWIDE.. It was "HUGE" 👏👏👏
You hear this song today and it STILL gets everybody hyped.
Anybody that said they didn’t like this joint back in the day is,“lying to you.”
No they are not.
You know everybody wasn't listening to rap back in the day.
@@sereneamani1713 But a lot of them were
@@charlesjonessr3684 people are bias, thats why they are little bitches who hate on something that they don't truly hate, thats one of the things thats wrong with people
Lying with a straight face. If they grew up in the 90s they love vanilla ice cause he was in the teenage mutant ninja turtles 2 movie
O-m-g so many people make fun of him but anytime this song comes on everyone starts singing and dancing.. good times, good memories👌💃
And in person..... he is a pretty man lol.... I met him at an Aerosmith show in West Palm Beach. Very handsome.....sparkly eyes.....
They're called haters
This song was a “one hit wonder”. That’s why people haten on vanilla.
@@katierojas8066 all u need is one hit to never work again..
So true
Really enjoyed this watchalong I appreciated your appreciation!
Freddie Mercury's reaction after hearing Ice, Ice, Baby. It's a scenario we can now imagine courtesy of Mercury's longtime assistant Peter "Phoebe" Freestone, who recounted his version of events in a blog post recently added to his official site. As Freestone writes, Mercury actually thought he was listening to "Under Pressure" at first - and as reality set in, he seemed bemused more than angry. "He carried on eating his breakfast and suddenly stopped, frowning. I thought there was a problem with his food but he said ‘no,'" he recalled. "He started listening intently and couldn’t believe his ears. He was smiling when he said that he couldn’t believe what he was hearing ... a blatant ripoff." After calling manager Jim Beach, Mercury apparently "left it at that, always remembering that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" - although the way things shook out wasn't always flattering for Vanilla Ice, who soon saw the chart-topping era of his career implode in a cloud of embarrassing personal revelations and Ninja Turtles, and would spend years facing assorted mockery for the way he'd handled the "Under Pressure" situation. The members of Queen weren't always the kindest when talking about "Ice Ice Baby," which was ultimately co-credited to the band as well as their "Under Pressure" collaborator David Bowie. "A white rapper from Florida ... great," quipped drummer Roger Taylor at one point, and in 1991, guitarist Brian May admitted his view of the whole thing had been jaundiced "because rap doesn't really appeal to me." After a couple of years, however - and a lawsuit settled to the band's satisfaction - May's feelings had softened somewhat. In a 1993 interview with Howard Stern, he insisted there were "no hard feelings" because Ice "settled up" - and ultimately, the song might have exposed their music to a new audience anyway. "In the end, it was very good for us because a lot of people went 'ah, so that's where that comes from,'" May noted. "So a lot of people who never would have heard of Queen heard of Queen because of that."
I love how you both have respect for our oldies. You both are adorable 🥰
It shows their parents listened to a lot of different music and exposed them to it. Just like we did with our son.
If you liked that watch Snow- 1993 song-“informer”... White boy singing reggae!!! The song is 🔥!!!
Sorry, but most of Snows lyrics from "informer" made no sense at all, maybe I'm missing something. the music was hot though.
Haha, I suggested the same song. I actually like his Creative Child more, though.
Snow ... great song ... Toronto boy with great patwa, yeah mahn, bless up!
Yes!
Came here to suggest this also
Most sold song ever . He wrote it when he was 16 . Much respect 💯💚
Very, very good song!
It makes you wanna move, and the lyrics… relevant even to this day, especially when you measure it to what they are saying today!!! You go boy!!!
Okay, this is serious, you NEED to react to “Informer” by Snow. It’s a nineties anthem! Haha
I had the cassette single of that song.
Definitely yes 👍
Oh yes! Inspired 😂😂😂😂👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I wore that song out, lol
No doubt
Someone somewhere once said "He was too white for the black crowd and too black for the white crowd" 🤷🏾♂️ Idk bout all that, but the dude could and still can rap good. Dope reaction y'all 💯💯
He did good on "Dancing With The Stars" too!
You Are So Right!! He Did His Thing & Did So Very Well ! It Was That Bullshit Mindset Of He’s Too Black He’s Too White That Stopped Him From Going To The Next Level💔 Could You Imagine Someone Saying That To Eminem!! NOPE?? Me Either!!
He was the first white guy who went 100% into rap and I think that's why he caught flak.
The summer of 1990 was Ice Ice Baby and Vogue. People front saying they didn’t like this song but it was number one on billboard it’s also the very first rap song to reach number one on billboard
ice said recently it still sells 3 or 4 million copies a year worldwide and has sold over 500 million copies making it the most successful hip hop album ever
They are still playing this in 2020... that says something. VI didn’t deserve the crap he got.
He dont care.. He still gets a check every month in his mailbox.
Itll always be a classic
No. Some of it was warranted but the sheer hate he got. It was jealousy. He can't help it that he was a good looking white dude and therefore more "marketable". It wasn't right that he got all that attention over better more talented black artists but that's not his fault. Blame the "powers that be" in the music industry for that.
@smakfu Yeah. It's everyone's guilty pleasure which is so high school. Hating something just because you're told to. Glad the twins aren't jumping on that bandwagon.
I think Ice Ice Baby is the most played song of all time. I remember reading he still gets revenue from it. His music is bigger outside the US.
Don't know if you have heard it yet..... But MC Hammer, "u can't touch this" If you like the dancing in this one you will love Hammers
Dude are you serious? What planet are you on?
Natural next choice. But MC Hammer's dancing is impressive in Turn This Mutha Out. Check it out!
Ya'll have brought all the ole school tunes back to life! I love your channel! Keep going!
This rhyme was Da Bomb back in the day. There was no racial divide when this played. EVERYONE was jammin to this.
Have a listen to Snow and his song, “Informer.”
YES I was going to say the same thing
Yup!
I had the same thought! 😆😆😆
Had the same thought.
Heh I was just about to comment this and then thought, well shit I should check the comments first and here we are haha
Vanilla Ice had catchy beats, that's what made him! Cool thing about him is that he is an awesome businessman. He took the money that he made during his rap career and became a contractor. He's now making millions renovating million dollar homes!
He made it work out and I respect him.
He was a powerboat driver for a while.
Too bad he ripped it off from Queen (Under Pressure).
He even fix up Amish homes in Pennsylvania and Ohio region
He had 1Hit song. And the baseline was stolen directly from Queen and David bowie in their collaboration Under Pressure.
I can’t...y’all are hysterical
I’ve been sharing these and told my boys about your channel
Good luck with your business
Ice is crazy successful in life-give the man some love❤️🤟🏼💯
