Nah. I get what you're saying, if Vanilla Ice got forced out the paint for the fakery and corn, Drake should have also, but he does not make (cultivate*) better music.Only a cac would disagree.
Hammer brought that shyt on himself. Between coming in dissing Run-DMC, LL, and others, and his corny antics (ridiculous pants, sequin outfits, backup dancer with that nut ass hairdo). On top of being like 80% wack.The MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice hate was some contrived, forced, tryhard foolishness.
He came up legit performing for black crowds with a black crew
Ice ice baby definitely a classic, cant front..
I think the rest of his music being trash is the biggest thing that did him in. Like if he had a dozen ice ice baby type hits (like drake) we'd probably look at his run a lot different.
Also he shouldve taken his security much more seriously.
Paul Wall > Vanilla Ice
Paul Wall is a honorary black man.![]()
His flow was patterned after Kane. The idea of it being a good or bad imitation is irrelevant. I’m certain Kane would have been much tighter delivery wise but it still doesn’t take away from the fact that you can tell Kane was an influence on him
“To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal...”
The way he put those bars together while the beat stopped is something totally out of Kane’s playbook.
It’s clear he admired Kane as a rapper.
Wait so Jay is trash but you respect Vanilla Ice ?Somebody nominate @KnickstapeCity for the WOAT award
Paul Wall > Vanilla Ice
What’s that supposed to mean? Paul Wall is that nikka.
Facts, breh.
Cooking MCs like a pound of bacon.

“Gunshots, rang out like a bell, I grab my 9, all I heard was shells,” is more believable than “You gon’ make me catch a body like that.”
Do Aubrey bust his gun? Don’t think so.
Swizz is still ruining your favorite rapper’s songs with “zone zone zone,” “showtime,” and them wack ass beats after calling him a p*ssy and threatening his life.
But White boy was bout it bout it.

Yea I slept on his skills, he’s pretty dope.Paul Wall has impressed me with how smooth he can be on the mic at times.
