It wasn't worth discussin really. He came, did it big, got exposed, and disappeared all in the same year really.
He got dissed by 3rd Bass and a few others you dropped disses on him in their songs. They saw a white boy getting shine who did not pay industry dues. He was the biggest white hope in rap since Beastie Boys(who actually had respect from black fans).
What was funny was it was a non rapper who ethered him. That person's name is Aresenio Hall. Arsenio at that time was a notorious kiss ass host but when he went in on Vanilla Ice when he was on his show, I was like
.no i was sittin here and this shit came on vh1. and i just thought how the fuck could this happen
I mean it just seem like it would have been more of an uproar or something. I ain't trying to offend anyone but I really was thinking that nobody spoke on that shit.

I'd love to watch that shit. i'm gonna try to find it.
It is on youtube. Aresenio really got at him. Vanilla Ice came to the interview wearing a suit that looks like the ones the Robinson family would wear in the old school "Lost In Space" series.
that's not accurate. they hated that he was a WHACK white rapper getting shine. their point was that millions of white people who didn't even fuk with hip hop would think that the 'style' vanilla ice was kicking was what emceeing was all about.
on top of that? they worked hard for years to get respect from black emcees in the underground, and they worried that vanilla ice would set white rappers back 20 years and they weren't havin that.
but if u 2 young to really know about vanilla ice, u probably don't know sheit about guys like the treacherous 3, the fantastic emcees, whodini, the fatboys and utfo, huh?
dayum, i'm havin a 'fantastic' flashback: "WE'RE THE FANTASTIC....EMCEEEEEEEES/AND WE'RE GETTING ALL THE LADIEEEEEEES......AND WHEN WE ROCK THE MIKE AND DO IT RIGHT, ALL THE PEOPLE THEY GO CRAZZZEEEE (they go crazeeeeee)...." [if u don't know the cadence then don't even say it. you'll only fuk it up

I dont remember anyone dissing Tone Loc.
To be honest alot of artist didn't start to diss em until they reached their peak and they started to fall(hammer,V.Ice,Young Mc).The whole Gangsterism set in and took effect on the masses than what rappers like Hammer was doing was "gay" didn't no one dress like that(alot of them actually did) or dance at a party or club.
In Living color took stabs at all of them but CB4 put the nail in the death box.Arsino Hall even dissed V.Ice.
And the most ironic fact was that Vanilla Ice (who'd been a popular DJ, with black and white audiences in Florida, for years before he broke out) was more DOWN with the music than Arsenio Hall would, or could, ever be.
Hall was never anything more than Eddie Murphy's valet.
Sure what I said was accurate about Vanilla Ice
. He did not pay the dues his black counterparts had to pay.
so he wasn't fake?
True Blunt but his rep took a serious dive after his appearance on the show. Arsenio was a dick rider no argument from me here.
Is he wearing a glow in the dark G-suit?
Man, I don't care what y'all think, I liked Vanilla Ice back then.
More than half of the rappers out today couldn't entertainment like he did.
Fuck you haters.

they weren't hot that he got large w/o paying dues. if he was dope and just came out and blew up then there wouldn't have been a problem. he was whack and blew up 'overnight' and that's when the problem came for him. but then again, if he woulda been out for YEARS and known as a whack rapper and blew up, he still woulda caught wreck
We are in agreement here.

I ain't gonna lie, I liked him back then, too. If people just heard the song, they wouldn't have really tripped, but when that cheap-ass video came out with him dancing and shit, that's when it hit the fan. The verses on the song weren't that bad, I didn't think.
THe ORIGINAL ether
goddam
Yeah In Living Color was the nail in the coffin after Arsenio. It was like a Chris Child's two piece combo.

Shit a lot of folks liked him back then. They just won't admit it. They did Hammer the same way. When Hammer was on top of his game he was a beast.
