More quotes by Vanilla Ice
I don't have any reason to hate anybody I believe in good karma and spreading good energy.
Vanilla Ice
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.
Vanilla Ice
And all the zig-zags and lines in my hair? I used to do that myself. I just thought it was cool that you could actually do that with your hair.
Vanilla Ice
I'm a random guy. I shake a hand and make a friend. I don't do egotistical things.
Vanilla Ice
To the extreme I rock a mike like a vandal.
Vanilla Ice
It doesn't sound anything like 'Under Pressure.'
Vanilla Ice
For three years between 16 and 19 I was the opening-act-for-the-opening-act-for-the-opening-act, you know? And then I was on tour with Ice-T, Stetsasonic, EPMD, Sir Mix-a-Lot--legends--and went on to sell 160 million records. It still baffles me.
Vanilla Ice
Even in a bad market, location, location, location is a way to still buy and sell property.

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.
Vanilla Ice
I just kind of shoot the finger to the critics. I don't give sh - what a critic says. To me a critic is some loser who has no idea... someone with an opinion. We all have opinions.
Vanilla Ice
My sound has changed. It's still hiphop, but it's more of like a rock/hip-hop show. It's high energy, stage diving, pyrotechnics, girls showing their breasts. It's crazy party atmosphere.
Vanilla Ice
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.
Vanilla Ice
I like Jay-Z, 50 Cent and Common. But I like the underground stuff like Young Jeezy, Black Rob and Shine. I also love heavy metal like Slipknot and Pantera, It's very intense stuff.
Vanilla Ice
Honestly, a lot of people thought that I was on top of the world selling so many millions of records, and that this is the life that everybody would want, but I never got to enjoy any of my success.
Vanilla Ice
A lot of people think I was an overnight success, but I was an opening act for three or four years, and then I signed my contract with EMI. Then it kind of blew up overnight.
Vanilla Ice
I own a mortgage company and a real estate company funded by the music. Florida is a kinda gold mine.
Vanilla Ice
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.
Vanilla Ice
No way! Let me tell you, I'm no Elvis. Elvis had his time. I'm Vanilla Ice, and it's my turn now.
Vanilla Ice
I was born in Dallas, Texas, but I was raised in south Florida. Ice Ice Baby is about that area.
Vanilla Ice
I just kept it real and had the freedom to do what I want. It's not designed for any age group. It's not made for radio. There are no edits. The whole album contains explicit lyrics but that's because you need it.
