Platinum Underground

Vanilla Ice

A gritty, self-referential collision of mid-aughts rap-rock and polished hip-hop. Ice revisits his legacy with distorted guitars and aggressive, modern production.

Find on Amazon

It's the Ninja Rap guy but with 2005 nu-metal guitars and a serious chip on his shoulder.

A gritty and aggressive reclamation of legacy through a lens of mid-2000s rap-metal.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring transition from a classic boom-bap beat into a distorted metal breakdown on track 1.
The updated synth-bass line in Ninja Rap 2 that attempts to modernize the cartoonish energy of the original.
The vulnerable, stripped-back vocal delivery during the final minute of track 25.
