People clown Vanilla Ice all the time, but EVERYONE knew the words to this song back in the day

"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." 🤣

"I thought he was black." _Ice just shed a tear hearing that!_

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.

don't care what anyone say... this is a hip hop classic... everyone knew the words to this song

This was THE song when it came out. Everyone was jamming to it and if they say they weren't, THEY ARE LYING!!!!!

I was laughing my ass off in the beginning, thinkin “these dudes gonna be so surprised when this song kinda bangs”

I like kids appreciating our 90s music.

Vanilla Ice should have never been ashamed of that song. It is an absolute classic rap song.

No matter what people say, growing up to this song it was banging in everyone's cars, parties and people loved it.

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.

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!

VANILLA ICE FOR PRESIDENT: He collaborates, he listens, and if you have a problem he’ll solve it 🤣

"I thought he was black!" Hahahaha......his name is VANILLA ice!!

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.

Can’t lie, I was at the concert & he rocked it !!!

"Bruh, I thought he was black!" Me : * Laughs in millennial * This is a treat

“I thought he was black!” He’s VANILLA Ice yo lol

Alert!! Remember how we were in this particular time in our country! Music can unite. Let's get back to this. ❤️

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 .

Jim Carrey impersonating him on in living color is hilarious

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.

Ice was an entertainer no doubt about it.

I cant explain how much I love seeing younger people get into the songs I grew up to!!! SO great!

"I thought he was black" omg that was to funny😂😂😂

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.

I love this. Does my heart good to see young folks giving out music a chance and not just immediately shutting it down

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!

When kids realize their parents might have been cooler than them!

"I thought he was black" lol that was hilarious..you guys rock.

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

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 🇨🇦💕

You know you’re old when 2 young men haven’t heard Ice Ice baby before and you still rock it on occasion.

“This guys got bars”.😂😂 If only these kids knew the ridicule he faced at the time.

That shit use to go hard in High school. ICE ICE BABY 🎙🎶🎶

I was stationed in South Korea when this first hit. The clubs were PACKED when this came on. Ice was IT!!! 👏😂

"I thought he was black." Everyone who heard this song for the first time in 1990

Can’t lie, if you grew up late 80s early 90s you still know all the words!!!

They need to watch Jim Carey on " In living Color" do his Vanilla Ice, it's pretty hilarious.

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.”

Everytime Vanilla Ice throws his head back, it reminds me of the "In Living Colour" rapper sketch with Jim Carrey LOL

Ice was before his time, people didn’t know how to take him, he could dance better than most.

No one had ever heard a song like this before. It brought rap back to life.

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.

"I thought he was black!" I knew they would be shocked by that! "ICE ICE, BABY!"

Okay, this is serious, you NEED to react to “Informer” by Snow. It’s a nineties anthem! Haha

This boy has a nice flow and his vocabulary and vernacular are colorful and on point .

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.

Boyyyyy back in '91, we used to rap ice ice baby word for word on the bus coming from football games...🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

No offense "kids" ( i'm 60) but it makes me feel good to see ya'll appreciating old school music. Love your videos.

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.

In case anyone is wondering, Ice took his music from the Queen/David Bowie song "Under Pressute"

Their reaction when they realized he's white was the funniest thing I've seen in a while.

I clicked so fast for this one. 🤣❤️

I love these guys passion and excitement for music, it is uplifting and infectious !

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.

People want to act like they weren't jamming to this now but EVERYONE did back in the day! Lol

Anybody that said they didn’t like this joint back in the day is,“lying to you.”

This was my teenage years, great to see you guys loving it. 😉✌

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.

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 🇦🇺

"They had some cool dance moves back in the day". I feel so old, lol

He was the man back in the day. The woman loved him all races . I sat in his 5.0 in Chicago

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

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 💯💯

If anyone says they didnt love that song when it first came out, they lie.

Nice to see someone react to this without the baggage of the controversy associated with it.

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 love how you both have respect for our oldies. You both are adorable 🥰

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.

You 2 r killing it. Love the respect

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."

Yes, Vanilla Ice did his thing back then. Even if some people don't want to admit it.

I know Vanilla Ice personally and he still has bars. He wrote this song when he was around 16. A classic

This song was not just HUGE in the States but WORLDWIDE.. It was "HUGE" 👏👏👏

Play this anywhere and watch anyone over 30 go full ice mode! Hand movements and all. 👏

30 years old and this has better flow than any mumble rapper

Oddly enough, vanilla ice went on to have a successful house flipping career. He had a tv show and everything!

Most sold song ever . He wrote it when he was 16 . Much respect 💯💚

This rhyme was Da Bomb back in the day. There was no racial divide when this played. EVERYONE was jammin to this.

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👌💃

If you guys are checking out 90s classics, please react to House of Pain “Jump Around” 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 The anthem of my youth!!!

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

No matter what people want to say now this was the jam back in the day.

We need “Snow, Informer.” Gotta do it. Thumbs me up, guys and gals. 👌👌👌

I'm 47 and when they play this in the club everyone loves it.

If "RHYME" was a drug. Rhyme, not crime.

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!

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

Check out “Under Pressure” by Queen & David Bowie. That’s the song that is sampled in this one. Love you guys!! Keep on going!

"Ice Ice Baby" was way more than just a CLASSIC song back in the day. Ice was 23 years old in 1990, he was 19 years old when he first performed "Ice Ice Baby" ((("Ice Ice Baby" was the B side of the hit song he had back then, "Play that Funky Music"))) and 16 years old when he wrote "Ice Ice Baby!" When "Ice Ice Baby" went viral WORLDWIDE people in other countries such as China, Africa, Venezuela, Cuba, Russia, etc ... were all singing and dancing and partying to this worldwide hit from the United States and the white boy who was multi talented! He never did receive the recognition for any of it bc haters just wanted to make fun of him, etc ... They were jealous and I bet they're really jealous now bc he still makes money off "Ice Ice Baby" to this very day. Now who else can say that the Hip Hop genré? Don't worry I'll wait ❤️ Ice was a trailblazer/forerunner when Hip Hop exploded on the scene back in the 90s - he paved the way for countless Hip Hop rappers you've seen, even to this very day. I'm so glad I was part of that amazing era! This is to a Wikipedia link that tells of Ice's other hits he had back then, it's just that none of them went viral worldwide back then but they were still hits back in tha day. So, he was NOT a one hit wonder, contrary to popular opinion. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Best_of_Vanilla_Ice We love you Ice, you are an icon from the 90s and will be one forever. Let folks talk smack about you but your true fans know better, we don't listen to their crap, WE'VE ALL GOT YOUR BACK ICE - "Word to ya motha" We love you Ice ❣️ God bless you boo❣️

I can't believe i can still remember the words to this, word for word!, lol!

This song was so big, even people who didn't like rap knew every word to it!

Ok, now Janet Jackson for women's wednesday: “Rhythm Nation”

On the one hand I'm ashamed that I scorned without listening to rap/hip hop when it was developing. (I'm 71, raised a Good Catholic and was offended by the language & themes.) But it FINALLY dawned on me when it was a WORLDWIDE art form that I had to be the one who was wrong. The good thing is discovering all the great stuff I missed before.

Ванила до сих пор к нам в россию в москву приезжает эту песню спеть.уважение 90 годам.

Jim Carrey spoofed Vanilla Ice on "In Living Color" it was hilarious!😂

I love these guys. I love that as young African Americans their minds, hearts, and ears seem open to all types of music. That's just enough to make this 49 year old Caucasian cry!!! Love you boys.

You hear this song today and it STILL gets everybody hyped.

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!!!
