Line 28:
* [[Creator Backlash]]: For a while, any material from ''To the Extreme'' was off-limits, but he still performs "Ice Ice Baby", and even recorded a [[Nu Metal]] version, "Too Cold", in 1998.
* [[Darker and Edgier]]: ''Hard to Swallow'' is ''much'' darker than any album Vanilla Ice has made before or since.
* [[Hair -Trigger Temper]]: On ''The Surreal Life'', he lost a game and proceeded to trash his room (including throwing a drum kit and nearly clobbering Ron Jeremy in the process), trash the set, cut his own hand open after punching a light, and sent the cast running for their lives.
* [[High Altitude Interrogation]]: Suge Knight of Death Row Records implied to Van Winkle that Knight would have his thugs throw him over a balcony unless Van Winkle signed over the rights to "Ice, Ice Baby." Tabloid rumors suggested that Knight ''did'' this, rather than simply implied it.
* [[Hip Hop]]
Line 34:
* [[Identical Stranger]]: Rob and [[Limp Bizkit|Fred Durst]].
** They're [http://twitter.com/#!/vanillaice/status/62226301737648128 fans of each other].
* [[Juggalo]]: Frequently seen wearing the Hatchetman charm, he finally signed with [[Psychopathic Records]] in 2011, after years of rumors. He also delivered the [[Insane Clown Posse (Music)/Funny|Crowning Moment Of Funny]] at the end of ICP's ''Bizaar''; ICP appear on his song "Insane Killas" (from his ''Bi-Polar'' album), and he appears on "Swallow This Nut", which was released on ICP's ''Forgotten Freshness Vol. 4''. It's... quite something to hear him match Violent J [[Cluster F -Bomb]] to Cluster F Bomb...
* [[Metal Scream]]
* [[New Sound Album]]:
Line 45:
* [[Pretty Fly for A White Guy]] /TastesLikeDiabetes /AmbiguouslyGay: At least his early 1990s incarnation. The picture shows he's gotten better.
* <s>[[Rap Rock]]</s> <s>[[Rap Metal]]</s> <s>[[Punk Rap]]</s> <s>[[Nu Metal]]</s> [[Neoclassical Punk Zydeco Rockabilly|Metal Molten Hip Hop]].
* [[Sex, Drugs and Rock And Roll]]
* [[Shrouded in Myth]]: He was very secretive about his personal life, with the intention of protecting his family. In an attempt to rectify this, his former label wrote a fake biography in his name and tried to pass it off as his official life story without his knowledge, and ended up creating even more myths. Van Winkle's own account of his life is not as exciting as his label tried to make it out to be, the only truth to it being that he ''did'' grow up in a poor neighborhood.
* [[Signature Song]]: "Ice Ice Baby"
