Basically every rap pre-Wu Tang was like “well my name is jim and i’m here to say, i don’t support anyone who’s gay!” Exceptions are EPMD and Eric B and Rakim.
Ah 1990, the year rap was invented, yes
Invents what???
“See, their song goes ‘ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding/ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding’, and mine goes ‘ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding/DING-ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding’. It’s totally different.”

I wanna see a double blind study on what percentage of people can accurately distinguish between ice ice baby and under pressure in the first few seconds.
Are they working alone, or do you envision groups who can stop, collaborate, and listen?
They only stop when it is time for the hammer. ✋️🔨⏰️.
Can’t touch this, because I’m too legit to quit.
Uncle Vanny was Vanilla Ice this whole time?!
I tried to get into his music, but then he told me to stop and I did.
Forget everything you know about slipcovers!
“Alright now stop, colla-”
“Okay!”
He didn’t leave, he just went on to invent metal.
And after that His home improvement tv show… 9 seasons
Is there anything this wunderkind can’t invent‽
Everyone knows Nickelback was the true creator of metal music.
what about Hanson?
Hmm… you might be onto something!
And now he’s STOMPING THROUGH THE BAYOU
Get sued by David Bowie and leaves
There was a problem and, yo, he solved it
Before he left, he turned out the lights and glowed
Stop, collaborate and leave
Genius fusion of ice to babies
Using his own completely unique music/melody as well. A true visionary.
Tbf plenty of rap was sampled at that time.
And never seemed to be under pressure to return
No. No. He wasn’t under pressure, he was under pressure. Totally different.
Who?
chocolate rain
Multiverse Eminem
I don’t recognize him either, but from the references in the other comments I’m assuming it’s vanilla ice
I’ve self diagnosed with face blindness, but I tentatively recognized his hair lift.
The references confirmed it.

The inventor of rap apparently
Beasty boy
Mike Jones
