I use the music to vent, and a lot of the stuff that I am writing about or was writing about contained a lot of anger and anxiety, stress and depression, so that's how the album came out so dark.

I used the music kind of as therapy, and it's just amazing that I feel so free after doing that. I feel like I had it trapped inside of me and now I feel free. So it's been a very good therapy session for me as well.

Be yourself and enjoy yourself. Show me a smile and I'll show you one back. Karma: Believe in it. It's real. It comes back to you.

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

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

I didn't end up going bankrupt... I made some great investments and I held on to my money, which also enables me to have the freedom to do what I want now. But it's not about finances. No matter what, it's about keeping it real.

I turned a lot of people in white America - and not just white America, but middle-class America - into hip-hoppers, you know?

Stop, collaborate and listen.

If you look at the statistics, people spend most of their time in the kitchen. Aside from the backyard, it's one of my favorite places to renovate.

I will not say anything about my father. Period. I don't have a dad.
Vanilla Ice

I don't know all the certain words to word it.

Rap is from the streets and I'm from the streets. That's why a lot of people accept me.

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'm the kind of guy who really likes a challenge. It's more rewarding.

When 'Ice Ice Baby' was selling a million records a day, I bought several properties: a home next to Michael J. Fox in L.A., a palace in Miami and a mountain cabin in Utah. Then, a few years later, I took a break from touring, saw that my properties had cobwebs, so I sold them, and - to my surprise - I made a huge profit!

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.
