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.

More quotes by Vanilla Ice
Rap is from the streets and I'm from the streets. That's why a lot of people accept me.
Vanilla Ice
Act smarter than you are and always know where your exit is in case you get into too much trouble.
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
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!
Vanilla Ice
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.
Vanilla Ice
Anything less than the best is a felony.
Vanilla Ice
With the mega-fame came the mega-downfall - you know, with the press and everything - and at a young age, it was very stressful to me.
Vanilla Ice
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.
Vanilla Ice
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.
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 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.
Vanilla Ice
I'm a Christian, but I don't believe in religion or anything like that.
Vanilla Ice
It wasn't until '94 when I tried to commit suicide that I realized that it wasn't about the money.
Vanilla Ice
My breakdancing crew used to go to the mall and squat a piece of cardboard there we had our jam box, and I'd spin on my head and make about forty bucks a day, which was pretty good back then. I was only 14 years old, so I would chase the girls around the mall and eat some pizza and have some change left over.
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
Negativity spreads faster than any Justin Bieber song.
Vanilla Ice
I like Cleveland. I like the Cavaliers. Nothing wrong with Cleveland. I have lots of friends there.
Vanilla Ice
I didn't want the public in my personal life at all - I thought that people might perceive me as too normal, and I'd lose that larger-than-life rock star persona. You've got to protect that!
Vanilla Ice
I have been known to hang out and party back in the day. I had a weekend that lasted a few years.
Vanilla Ice
I've never left music behind, but I've had success in television.
