Aries Spears and Vlad discussed the level of acceptance and impact of White rappers, such as Vanilla Ice and Eminem, within the Black community during the early stages of their careers. The question was posed to compare Vanilla Ice's "Ice, Ice Baby," and Eminem's "My Name Is." Aries felt that initially, Vanilla Ice was more accepted due to his memorable sound and the ability to cater to Black audiences. However, Aries pointed out that many in the Black community questioned Vanilla Ice's authenticity, viewing him as something of a cartoon character. Conversely, Eminem was seen as authentic and deeply rooted in the culture of rap despite being a "White boy." In addition, Vlad noted Vanilla Ice's international impact, being the first rapper to tour extensively worldwide.
