I am seventy-one years old, white and I love this.
"Under Pressure" was sampled by American rapper Vanilla Ice for his 1990 single "Ice Ice Baby". Vanilla Ice initially did not credit Bowie or Queen for the sample, resulting in a lawsuit that gave Bowie and Queen songwriting credit.
What u failed to mention it was very common practice during that time to sample without giving credit
It may have been a common practice, but lawsuits did happen. He didn't 'sample' Under Pressure - he stole it.
This lawsuit was most famous because he stole from Queen and David Bowie - huge names and a big song.
Ice now owns the rights to both under pressure and ice ice baby.....
It was also famous because instead of calling it sampling, Vanilla Ice tried to act like it wasn't but that his version of the bit used "was significantly different".
He did this ridiculous thing if say ing he changed two or three notes. So it was his original work and stuck to that story for years instead of saying he was inspired by the original song.
Other artists were sampling and going by the defense of fair use if it's under so many seconds or bars. Or they just paid up when called out on it.
all laws aside, it is still a brilliant sample and awesome track! :D
OH HELL YES!!! 😆 I'm not ashamed to say I can rap this word for word!! I grew up on this shit and I still listen to it on the regular to this day! And I give 0 fucks about it!! 🙌 I love that you're doing all of the old school shit whether you have heard it before, or not!! ❤
I know every single Word😂 I'm 49!
I'm not ashamed to admit that I know every word myself and I'm 46. I also love Kris Kross. Used to warm up to them before a volleyball game.
I'll add mine, 48. Can still hit it hard without the music. Childhood memories.
I know every word to this day. I’m 43.
Im mid 60s old white english lady and still remember every word, blew my grandchildren away that i also know every word to snow informer too.
The man could spit bars, and he could definitely cut a rug. Cheers
I'm a 67 yr old white woman and my kids and I would dance around the house and sing every word together!! I love this and I also know every word...still remember! ❤😊
This beat will always be iconic. You cannot not dance to this song
I worked for a radio station that put on concerts. He was one of the artists. His live show is some of the best i have ever seen. Very nice guy.
The 80's and 90's were a different world. This world's a lot more depressing man. I enjoyed this song since day 1 and I was ten when it came out. We had so much fun back then all races religions, everyone together (at least in my city) ✌🏼
I was 20 years old when I first heard this 1990 I jammed every day still do
Damn i miss the 80s!
Keep doing the classics.
Don't forget some nkotb. I played them for my daughter when she was around 16 and she got mad at me - she said why have you never play this for me before??
I started playing all sorts of music for her. She's 30 now and listens to nothing but classics. I'm so proud
This came out in 1990
I will never be ashamed to say I loved this track, & listened to it endlessly when it first came out!!! I think the Hip Hop community should be thankful that Vanilla Ice exposed so many people to this style music, because it really was a catalyst to open doors moving forward.....and oh the dancing 😊
This song makes me so happy ! Best one hit wonder ever !! He’s still selling out concerts w Salt n peppa and others ! So fabulous!! ❤
YO!! Everyone of a certain age and ethnicity during the early 90"s has heard this song.. AND LOVED IT !!
People may make fun of it, but it is almost impossible not to move when you hear this song and it is one of the most recognizable songs for so many people.
To be young again, this brings back so many memories sighhhhhh
It's such a fun song. You can't help but sing and dance along. 😄
I remember getting this cassette tape the day it came out! I was 14 years old! Loved it! I was sad watching his downfall in real time! This song always makes me feel good! I love vanilla ice! I still watch stop that train video!
I loved/love Vanilla Ice. This song was blaring out of our cars when at college.. windows shaking.
I loved this from the get go. Heard it first on MTV, still sing along to this day!
Vanilla ice got sued by Queen
And rightfully
The original is by Queen and David Bowie, written in Montreux back in the early 80's
Vanilla Ice...thief, thief baby.
@@Reno_Slim well, he took the entire bass line and had the nerve to say that it wasn't the same tone.
No wonder he's no where to be found
HATERS! 😂
@@dimitrasotirakoglou2553 and your worried about it like it's yours. Get some help loser.
@@AdamBazille
Yes, I hate thieves...especially lying thieves like Robert Van Winkle.
Your enthousiasm is contagious and very enjoyable, so I'm completely on board with you doing some classics reactions.
Sang every lyric with this reaction....love this! There are TONS of people that have love for Vanilla Ice. Check out the crowds when he performs today. Lots of love for the old school stuff!
He has a video on his channel where he watches this for the first time in 30 years. He explains some of the lyrics and the experience he had with the song. It's a great video....
I'd love to see you react to Run DMC and Aerosmith doing "Walk This Way", Rob Base "It Takes Two", Young MC "Bust A Move", Digital Underground "Humpty Dance" or "I Get Around"...
This cassette got me through a family car trip from Wisco to Florida the year it came out and I can still spit this whole tune. Beastie Boys, NWA, Run DMC were my intro, but this will always hold a special place for me.
He’s got more talent than most hip-hop artist dream of.
The first rap I ever heard was Rob Base - It Takes Two, but yeah Ice Ice Baby was my favorite song in 3rd grade. I remember being at the roller skating rink and that song came on and being so stoked
OMG! I had forgotten about Rob Base! Going to go look for it right now. Thanks for a great memory
Vanilla Ice was the shit, still every bit the banger today as it was back in the day
I love seeing a grown man enjoy this as much as I do.
This song came out right before my birthday in 1990 & my brother is also born on the same day, but 4 years earlier! I was turning 11 & he was turning 7. He was obsessed with Michael Jackson until this came out! I remember with our birthday money we bought Vanilla Ice & MC Hammer’s, Please Hammer Don’t Hurt Em on cassette tape and we listened to them in our living room over & over & over!! 😂 Love this… thanks for the memories!! ❤
1990?
@@daisy9910 LOL… thanks for the heads up on my typo! 😂👍🏼
@@BrookePS23 Was supposed to be 1919. Gotcha.
I remember this on MTV
Honestly, I grew up listening to Eric B. and Rakim, EPMD, Ice T, Run D.M.C., Public Enemy, etc. Then I got into high school, it was N.W.A., Eazy E, , etc., then as I became a little older, it was Vanilla Ice, Snow, M.C. Hammer, Kid N' Play, etc.🔥🔥🔥 I miss those break dancing, popping, locking days. It was cool, because later when M.C. Hammer, Kid N'Play, Bobby Brown came out, me and my friends would combine breaking, popping, and locking, with the other dance styles. You got me excited bro, thank you.👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
THIS SONG WILL ALWAYS BE A VIBE BRO IDC WHAT NOBODY SAIDS EITHER THIS SONG IS ICONIC ASF AND STILL GO HARD. SUCH A CLASSIC
Thank you for the love BP
This brings me back to the days. I had this cassette tape and hammer spinning back to back with the homies playing the original sonic on sega when we were kids
Thanks for the great review!!! Love it as a 68 year old woman !!!!
Still know every single word. Love this jam so much.
Dude I still get hype everytime I ear this you ain't the only one I love it
it was really, really fun watching you enjoy this song!
Love Vanilla Ice !
Haters gonna hate. I'm 60 and I've been dancing to this song since day 1..................LOVE IT BABY
As a white female at 55 today, I can pretty much sing every word to this song. I was babysitting in 1990 and the 11 year old boy played it over and over and over that day. So he and I both learned all the words and danced around. Yep it is a classic. Loved your active reaction, you singing with all of us!!!
He was taken to court for using that segment of notes that belonged to Queen and David Bowies song "Under Pressure" without asking. A lot of people frowned on that. He is very talented though no doubt!
Great fun reaction !
and yeah, as a 43 years old man who actually grew up with this song (was around 12-13 when it released), I actually still remember most of the lyrics. great classic !
Make that 10 years old, dude. I'm 43 as well and that song came out in 1990, we both would have been 10.
@@LionLeo2180 OK, I will give you that. In my head, it was released in like 92-93. 🤘
Love, Love, Love it. First heard it on MTV, and every time it came on ,we had to dance too 😅. Great reaction BP.
I was a sophomore in high school when this was released. Loved it from day one. It was one of my faves to bump in my Pontiac Fiero.
I wore this cassette out!! I still remember that it immediately started into "Yo Vanilla! Kick it one time booy!!"
This was my 10 year old niece's favorite song back in 1990. That's how I was introduced to it. I have it set as her ringtone now. 😂
I think I heard late 90s (born in 93) but this as a rap beat has stuck with me most of my life. When bro drops bar after bar and then some more it's just dope music.
He was always a fun listen, another caught in the "appropriation" problem even then.
Mostly by liberal Hollywood morons and some race baiters...none of them ever heard of the Beastie Boys and acted like he was the first white rapper and had no clue how many white people had been a part of Hip-Hop since its inception.
Ice will always be a pioneer in my eyes. And no 16 year old thinks his song will hit the ears of bowie and queen.
Bro I love this shit like fr
Yo! This is my jam! I rock Vanilla Ice all the time!! Dude is straight killin it
This is such a a great song!! It always makes me want to dance. I don't care if this song was a cover to Queen and David Bowie 's song of "Under Pressure."
There are so many artists that have made covers of other songs; and they haven't received so many hates like they did to Vanilla Ice!
It's not a cover of 'Under Pressure' by Freddie Mercury & David Bowie. It sampled the opening beat of the song.
@@megdelaney3677 Also Vanilla Ice claimed he wrote the song until he got sued then the truth came out that is why he was given a hard time and rightly so
I love the classics!
I was a junior in high School and this came out, yes a lot of us metal heads liked this song, they just didn't want to admit it.
I to remember this as a young kid man I loved this song still do still to this day when this song comes on I stop and crank the volume to 10 .... Nice to see a nother person that loves this song as much as I do keep being you're self my friend let the haters hate because they are going to anyway so don't give them any power you 🤘
Top songs of all time! ERRRbody knows this one. Everyone loves to karaoke this one
Tupac was his friend, he used to be the warm up artist for so many rap artists. I love this song.
OMG this always makes me happy! I'm white and my boys are around your age. I married in high school and had my 2 boys when I was 18 and 19. I say this because when they were real young they liked MC Hammer, Vanilla Ice and Digital Underground to name just a few. I was still really young and got into a lot of this kind of music. My boys think it's funny that I still love it. Most of the time I don't know what the artist is even "saying"..I just love the music and the beat!
I was 19 from The Netherlands when this song came on the radio. I loved it and still do because I love dancing ❤
Love that song. The beat alone. Soo good
Love this song, it was my favorite song when I was 5 years old LOL
This reaction was awesome! I've always enjoyed this song and watching you singing the lyrics with enthusiasm and joy just made it even better. You made my night! Ice Ice Baby on the way to Mars! LOL
Loved you reacting to this. Singing along and the happiness. Awesome!!!!
This takes me back to high school!!!
I was there back in the 90s when this came out, EVERYONE knew this song.
My lil brother got the bricks on one side and zigzags on the other in his hair after the movie. Haha those were the days..
I was starting my junior year of college when this came out. So much fun! I think I saw/heard it on MTv first.
November 1990, I was driving from Illinois to North Carolina with my new husband and his 11-year-old granddaughter. She brought a cassette of Vanilla Ice with a mini boom box. We must have heard that song 100 times during that trip. I still tease her about meeting her this way.
Yeah, it sure does sound different as an adult. I'm the same age as you. Do Ninja Rap, I remember when I was 11 requesting that one on the radio!😄
I was 12 when this came out, and I'm fairly certain my parents hated this song by the end of the first day it came out, because I recorded it to a cassette off the radio and played it on repeat so I could memorize the lyrics. What a time!
Great reaction. Music should make you feel and I feel like dancing.
When I first heard this song on the radio, I thought it was Under Pressure by Queen and David Bowie. The first rap song I heard was Rappers Delight, and the Second was Blondie- Rapture.
I am pleasantly surprised at your reaction to this!!!! That was FUN
Shock G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES DO IT
Would have been perfect to revisit it with Vanilla Ice. Just a couple months ago he reviewed and was talking about it. Said he hadn't heard it in years or something like that. Check it out
Bro! This is when life was real! Now we’re on some “other stuff”
Have to love some vanilla ice
This reaction just made my day! 😊
I loved it then, and I love it now!
Definitely loved this reaction. Ice was one of the first rap artists that I enjoyed. Now I'm huge into hip hop, Bone Thugs are the ones that sucked me down the the rabbit hole, love Bone!
He also made his own reaction video to this song, it's really cool
I loved this song when I was a teenager. Greetings from Finland
I'm 66 and remember so well!! ❤ I loved dancing and this was my favorite to dance to. My youngest brother (only 15 at that time) had this down pat from the song to the dance! He was also the best on the baseball team.. Home run city! Our school called him "The White Shadow" ❤
Definitely got to react to his song roll em up!
That song is true hip-hop no matter what haters will say
First rap song i ever heard on the radio back in the day, "Parents Just Don't Understand" DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince 😉❤️ And i Still know the words to it & 'Ice Ice Baby' (& some others lol). I break them out every now & then to my daughters. They look at me like, "Whhhaaaaa?" 🤣🤣 Thanks BP, loved this trip down memory lane. ❤
I, myself, did not learn of this song until I saw 13 going on 30, but after seeing the movie i bought the soundtrack just to have this song. I loved it and was on TH-cam the following week looking up other songs lol. I love his songs.
It was a lot of fun watching you get into VI.
My son brought this song home when he was in school, I loved it then and I love it now .
I'm a fan too and DC to state that this song is a great part in my love f music
Classic is good BP, I remember this joint...Peace🤙☝️😌
Love love love this reaction! Can feel your joy through the screen! My first rap I memorized was Sugar Hill Gang. I still know every word. Besides that one, one of my first memories of hip hop was Word Up on the jukebox at a pizza place I worked at. Would love to see you react to it. #wordup
do it! classic all day!!!!
I like the classic reactions.
He still got barz!
First time I heard this was in Katterbach/Ansbach Germany...yep, in the 90s...AFN radio. And yes, we used to dance to this...MC Hammer, too...for a rocker, kind of a different sound, danceable, ya know? Main new sounds for me during that time were Depeche Mode, Queensryche, Whitesnake, U2, Sade, and a strange one that I loved...Enigma....heard over AFN. Vanilla Ice used to have a home remodeling show on HGTV...filmed in FL. He lived in South Florida and transitioned to that field. Love your journey and reactions....👍👍👍
I was standing in formation when I first heard this song.
The entirety of “To the Extreme” has permanent residence in brain.
I love this song, it’s fire!!!
I love this song, and I'm a rock fan. My friends and I would dance to this in the clubs in New York.
Absolute banger!! ❤
I remember buying this cassette and MC Hammer's on the same day at the music store in the mall when I was like 11. Closest mall was 3 hours from my little town so it was a big deal.
I have this song as my phone ringtone. Makes me happy too.
#VanillaIce was dope, I've always thought that!
