"See, their song goes 'ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding/ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding', and mine goes 'ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding/DING-ding-ding-ding da-da ding-ding'. It's totally different."

I wanna see a double blind study on what percentage of people can accurately distinguish between ice ice baby and under pressure in the first few seconds.

Are they working alone, or do you envision groups who can stop, collaborate, and listen?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They only stop when it is time for the hammer. ✋️🔨⏰️.

He didn't leave, he just went on to invent metal.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Everyone knows Nickelback was the true creator of metal music.

Pretty sure Mmm Bop is credited with inventing scat music, which eventually caught on in jazz a bit.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Hmm... you might be onto something!

Guys like Bob Vila walk the path Ice paved.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Red Green salted the Iced path, at least he's handy.

Using his own completely unique music/melody as well. A true visionary.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Tbf plenty of rap was sampled at that time.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There was a problem and, yo, he solved it

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Before he left, he turned out the lights and glowed

And never seemed to be under pressure to return

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

No. No. He wasn't under pressure, he was under pressure. Totally different.

Multiverse Eminem

I don’t recognize him either, but from the references in the other comments I’m assuming it’s vanilla ice

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

I've self diagnosed with face blindness, but I tentatively recognized his hair lift.

The references confirmed it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

The actually useful answer. Thanks

The white MC Hammer.

"Bloodhound Gang and Rob van Winkle: Together on this track."

He genuinely could flow. He just was too caught up in trying to market himself (his rap / metal fusion album was a good example of lyrics trying to package a look).
