Was Vanilla Ice actually, legitimately seen as cool back in the day? Like, no joke, people genuinely thought that?
Jeez, people in the nineties really had low standards of quality.
>>86949379
He was by and large seen as a joke by anyone over 13. They played his song at middle school dances
>>86949379
I went to a black elementary school and the 6th grade girls absolutely loved him.
He was seen as pretty lame though he had a couple of not terrible songs. He was popular mostly among kids.

He was never seen as cool, but normies liked him for about 8 months in 1990.
After that even normies started treating him as a joke.
>>86949379
He's still pretty cool. Have you seen Cool as Ice? Why are you saying he's not cool and wasn't cool?
>>86949789
Fuck you and all the rest of the kiddies in this thread. You didn't even have consciousness in the 90s. Stop LARPing as old people such as myself on /tv/.
Vanilla was always cool.
>>86949379
he's a chad thundercock who did whatever the fuck he wanted. Based af
You have to conider that his album sold 15 million copies. That's Rolling Stones or Madonna level. And that was just his debut album.
>>86949379
I feel like he was an old equivalent of Psy
Gangnam style haha amirite
So what is considered 'cool' now? kardashians? pewdiepie?
Vanilla Ice proved that you could make more money in hip hop from white kids in the suburbs than black kids in the hood
>>86949747
add dubstep and taylor swift
numales are pathetic.

No. Popular music that was sold as "cool" at the turn of the decade like Vanilla Ice, Milli Vanilli and C&C Music Factory was so fucking fake and lame that it made kids want to like dark edgy stuff under the presumption that it was more genuine, which set the tone for the whole decade.
>>86950128
anything really
the internet has shaped society to be able to form sub cultures for all styles of people
>>86949379
>>In February 2015, Ice was arrested and charged with burglary residence and grand theft after he allegedly stole furniture, a pool heater, bicycles and other items from a Florida home he believed to be vacant.[116] He later accepted a plea deal which would result in the charges being dropped following his completion of 100 hours of community service and payment of restitution to the estate of the homeowner

Why are you guys still watching that JonTron guy even though its confirmed he is a National Socialist?
>>86949789
>normies liked him for about 8 months in 1990
thats pretty accurate. Ice Ice Baby was the only thing that made him popular. He aped the baggy pants and dancing from MC Hammer.
>>86950570
all the more to watch him fom
i wonder what hes up to now

you just answered your own question kid
>>86949379
I don't know, I remember him being popular when I was in elementary school, and that was just among the other children.

You've quoted me but I have no idea what you're talking about. Is this what myopia looks like? Is this what solipsism looks like? Go fuck yourself. Just because JonTron is your main source of information doesn't mean others are completely ignorant of the shit JonTron spews. I've never even consumed JonTron content, not once. I hope you die.
>>86950724
Yeah. Unless your name is norman, stupid.

Jontron? Isn't he that guy who killed someone with his car in Charlottesville?

JonTron made a video about the Vanilla Ice movie recently, so I assumed OP made this thread because he watched the video. The video got like 2 million views so it's not weird for me to assume that.
Also "I hope you die" is a bit of an overreaction.
good looking movie. cinematographer was the same one as Saving Private Ryan + Schindler's List
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryvHj2z-0BM
I like how Jon released the video and already there's kids who never heard of Ice asking about him on 4chan.
I LOVE THOSE FUCKING EYES

>>86950979
i remember watching the movie as a kid and enjoying it. then i watched it again a few years ago and i liked it then too though i could now see how cheesy it was. but i'm a real sucker for early 90s stuff.
>>86949379
If he didn't get caught stealing the beat for ice ice baby he would have been a legit pop star
>>86950183
Hello 2013!
>>86950193
this guy is on point
>>86949379
such a Chad face

You will die one day. And when that day comes, I hope you remember this post.
>>86951255
chkd
>>86949379
with a face like that, all he needs are altering flavor of the year/decade haircuts and appropriate clothing, and he will be seen as cool any time, any era.
>>86949379
To the hip teenagers, yes, just like the people who are seen as cool by the hip teens of today will be seen as incredibly lame in 20 years.
>>86949379
Yes, until Nirvana happened.
People these days think Macklemore is cool, nothing has really changed.
>>86951255

Macklemore was popular 5 years ago get with the times
>>86950959
That's exactly why for the first time in 6 years ive seen vanilla ice posted
Vanilla Ice's face looks straight out of a nazi propaganda poster yet he was a total wigger retard
Really makes u think
It's amazing how handsome he is (no homo) not even the dumb haircut, clothes or the retarded way he talked could make him unattractive. A true Chad.
>>86952830
Smells like Teen Spirit broke in 91'
Ice Ice Baby was 90'
Not discounting Nirvana were already making waves though
>did people think a millionaire chad was cool
I guess all those record sale dollars got into his pocket magically.
>>86950183
And drake. For some reason he's considered talented and and cool.
>>86949379
He was a novelty. People didn't look at him because they respected him, he was essentially a sideshow act.
You looked at him the same way you would a bearded lady or a sword swallower.

Goddamn, younglings is this the first time you hear about Cool as Ice?

>>86949379
I'm 101% sure that OP made this thread because of Jontron last video

Eminem was around back then though.

Shut your whore mouth.
There was that one time Vanilla Ice collaborated with the Bloodhound Gang on a song and it was actually kind of a banger.

he probably was. look at this
>>86949379
I was in jr. high at the time.
I had a friend tell me he was totally cool. Then due to the laws of peer pressure I automatically thought he was cool. Never understood the appeal of him though.
>>86950570
OY VEY GOY STOP WATCHING VIDEOS HE'S AN EBIL RACIST KKK NEO NAZI
>>86949379
He was popular in the very early 90's. They had him at all the major fights, I remember him especially at a Tyson fight and he was very relevant and cool.
His fame as a serious person was short lived though but people saying Jeff was always a joke are completely off and I feel like they were too young to remember his peak popularity.
t. 52 years old and remember the 90's well.
>>86954676
That's pretty sad of both of you to watch it.

He seems like a good dude. I enjoyed the Amish tv show he did. Seemed down to earth and very likeable.

ICE IS BACK WITH A BRAND NEW INVENTION
i was about 10 years old when he hit it big with ice ice baby... iowa high school kids were rapping all the lyrics bragging how they knew them all. once he got sued for sampling queen is when shit hit the fan for him
>>86956716
Your mom is awesome. I had the standard "bowl cut" back in the early 90's. I also rocked them Reebok Pumps.
>>86950066
Psy had like 3 singles that people instantly recognise
That was after his 5th or 6th hit album in South Korea.
Try again
>>86956716
Simpler times.
>>86956781
I had LA Lights.
>>86949379
He was a genuinly good dancer
Even being 8 years old I knew he was a dork
>>86956813
Fucking weaboo
>>86950570
He posted nothing for 8 months Then in less than a day his new video had 1.6 million views.
What do you think?
>>86956869
>not pimping British Knights

Oh hell yeah I had the Andre Agassi pumps with the green tennis ball pump
and the Bo Jackson South beach air max
>getting to know this classic trough Jon Tron
>not trough Rifftrax
Downlooad that shit now, it's hilarious
>>86949379
He was considered cool for about a 6 months. Then he was only cool as ice to kids in highschool and younger.
>>86957648
>A tired rehashing of a format that was only funny for 5 minutes in the late 90s
Nah, I'm good. If I wanted to listen to people talking through a movie making it worse I'd watch Cinema Sins or go to the movies with the black dudes who fuck your mom
>>86957015
My school banned British knights because of the gang violence back then. Apparently the nogs were saying they stood for blood killer. This was in Santa Ana California though, and gang shit was peaking there, mostly Mexicans though there aren't many blacks there. Anyway, I was mad about it because my mom had bought me BK's for back to school shoes and i couldn't fucking wear them.
Had the LA lights too.
