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.

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.

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.

I live off a motto that says, 'yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery'. I have goals and agendas. Where ever I'll be tomorrow, that's where I'll be.

If you grew up in my generation, you're going to be influenced by Run DMC, the Beastie Boys and also listen to Metallica - it wasn't segregated anymore.
