I got caught up on drugs for a few years, I'm off it, I'm very happy, got two kids and a family and everything. And like I said I'm making the underground music, and keeping it real.

Ice came in when my friends would say cold as ice -- if you could rap and battle people you'd say Dude, that was ice cold. It had nothing to do with jewelry. Back then, it was like Your cold, dawg. Vanilla Ice -- that's cold.

What makes critics dictate what is cool and what is not. What gives them the pass to say that their opinion on music or movies or anything is what should be cool and what shouldn't. I don't think it should be up to one person.

I've been playing concerts for many years, and it's still as exciting as it was the first time. I hope that shows when I'm performing.

No way! Let me tell you, I'm no Elvis. Elvis had his time. I'm Vanilla Ice, and it's my turn now.

The most valuable lesson I've ever learned in my life is that life is about family and friends, not about material things or any of that. It's about enjoying your life. If you have no family, no friends to enjoy it with, it don't matter how much you have, how much success you have, how much fame you have, how much money you have, it doesn't matter.

I'm a random guy. I shake a hand and make a friend. I don't do egotistical things.

It wasn't until '94 when I tried to commit suicide that I realized that it wasn't about the money.

Another car is not going to help me out, a nicer car, I've already got it. A bigger house ain't gonna do anything for me, and you know, a yacht, it's not going to do anything for me anymore. So how can I find happiness?

Listen, if you don't talk big game, you never get anywhere. If you don't think big, you don't get big. Some people call it egotistical, some people call it high hopes, some people call it confidence. It's all in how you want to dissect it.

Rap is from the streets and I'm from the streets. That's why a lot of people accept me.
Vanilla Ice
Image
One thing I didn't understand in life was that I had $100,000,000 in the bank and I couldn't buy happiness. I had everything: mansions, yachts, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, but I was depressed. I didn't know where I fitted in. But then I found family and friends and I learned the value of life.

It doesn't sound anything like 'Under Pressure.'

To be truthful, Jay-Z wouldn't have a quarter of the records sold today if it wasn't for the white people buying his records.

A lot of people don't remember anything since 'Ice Ice Baby,' but I've got 3 records out since then and they're all successes - but not commercially.

I don't harp on what I could change about the past, because I can't go back and change it. But definitely a lot of things I would change.

I don't have any reason to hate anybody I believe in good karma and spreading good energy.

My mom raised me to be clean, so it's in my nature. I have two little girls and I'm married but we've got a nanny and a maid.

I have a very broad demographic, from the 8-year-old who knows every word to 'Ice Ice Baby' and the college kid who grew up on 'Ninja Rap' to the soccer mom and grandparent.

Act smarter than you are and always know where your exit is in case you get into too much trouble.
