He isn't an actual pop star either, he's a rapper lol. Anyone can switch over to whatever genre they want, if they can pull it off well is a whole nother thing.

lmfao catchin strays left and right, I was nearly lynched when I revealed I liked 1-800, even though most of the reason was for the other singer on the track (forgot her name because when I tried to look into her the music was too bland for me)
I kinda liked COADM, I thought most of the album was really good but I agree that some tracks are bland and lifeless, and especially in the middle the album completely falls apart with some of the most atrocious songs I've ever heard
I can listen to some of those tracks if I just turn my brain off but holy shit, clickbait, bobby and especially that Will Smith song are nearly unlistenable.
Vanilla ice still tours and has an extremely dedicated fan base, he’s well known to be an absolutely insanely down to earth and nice guy, i wish he had been more successful as he really deserves the support
That kid Cudi tape may have failed commercially, but he made a really good punk rock album. That thing just oozed 90s I don’t care what anybody says. The Beavis and Butthead interludes we’re nothing short of * chefs kiss moment*
@@kabelosejake322 I think the problem is he did a punk rock album too well and his hip hop fans were thrown. That shit is solid. I have a former co worker and friend who love metal and punk, that dude immediately downloaded it and was shocked Cudi was a rapper.
I really liked Rebirth and Speedin Bullet 2 Heaven, even have them on rotation to this day. I was disappointed to find out in the recent years that people never liked them.
Vanilla Ice is a damn good motocrosser and at one time was the #3 ranked JetSki racer in FL. Due may not be able to play metal but he is definitely metal on two wheels
As a huge nirvana/Kurt cobain fan, you can tell speeding bullet was heavily influenced from albums like bleach and incesticide. I like the album, it’s dark and different
Ice didn't fail because he switched genres. People had already treated Ice as a joke and he tried to self remove by the time the dust settled on Mind Blowin', so really, releasing a rock album was more of a having nothing to lose kind of thing. It wasn't about charting. It was about doing something in life so that people didn't automatically laugh at and hit him with things for being a phony. Remember, he was accused of switching genres already, from hip-hop to pop. THAT is what effected him so much. Ice has talked about just how important some of the songs on Hard to Swallow, "Scars" in particular, were to his own healing process.
Call me a super Wayne stan but I actually enjoyed Rebirth 🤷🏻♂️ I vividly remember playing “Prom queen” and “Da da da” a lot as a kid. That sample on “On fire” was straight 🔥 too
This is what I mean when I say Wayne is one of the greats. Dude put out an album of a different genre, and STILL managed to pull 176K first week. Just goes to show how big he really was 15 years ago. Lol.
Back then you bought the album before you listened to it, so obviously he's gonna have good sales cos you trust a legend like Wayne to make a good album and you buy it. But you're thinking modern day.
Just glad MGK still puts out rap from time to time. I’m a punk rock/metal/hip hop head till I die but that boy belongs in rap. Idk what anybody says. He can spit.
@@rell4219 I agree with that to a certain extent. I don’t think he was tryna be a lil peep as their sounds are nothing alike, in my opinion anyway. When I hear any of peeps musical groups like GBC/Scheemaposse or any of peeps library at all for that matter, the last thing that I would compare it to is MGKs shitty wannabe emo/pop/punk.

Great vid. Just wanted to note for the last note for Vanilla Ice is that Vanilla Ice in JoJo is the Stand User; the Stand he uses is actually called Cream (like the band from the 60s).
@@mattyballzFun fact: the Japanese voice actor for vanilla ice in jojo is possibly a more successful rapper than the actual vanilla ice He voices a very important character in a bizarre yet extremely popular Japanese rap battle multimedia project I just think that's really funny
Just a minor correction: Vanilla Ice's "To The Extreme" was not Vanilla Ice's debut album, he had one in 1989 before it called "Hooked" which barely sold and was not on a major label (he re-recorded and reworked most of the songs for "To The Extreme"). Great video by the way, huge fan of your work. I also think the critics were too hard on "Speeding Bullet to Heaven" as I really enjoyed it!
@@mattyballz Yeah, that's probably fair (maybe "major label debut" would fit? I dunno). I'm really nitpicking, I get it.

I also own a copy of his nu metal albums, and good god are they a trainwreck. Thanks for taking the time answer me!

Uh, no. My life was a black hole when I heard that album and it was still pure shit. There's so many other albums I turn to for that, so much music that succeeds in all the ways Speeding Bullet just falls flat. Plus, the Beavis and Butthead skits obliterate any possibility of gleaning any meaningful experience from it. Like, WTF?
Lil Wayne might not have reached the heights he would've liked switching to Rock but we wouldn't have had Drop The World, On Fire, & yes Prom Queen surprisingly grows on you maybe Knockout, even as a Wayne fan I can't really listen to the rest but Ima give it another try thanks to this Video 👌🏽
Was introduced to MGK back in 2010 when i was 15 via the song 'Cleveland' and i immediately became a massive massive fan......fast forward to when i was 19 and i get a tattoo on my chest that is heavily inspired by MGK's own tattoo...2 years later and MGK disses Em setting in motion a speed run in self Sabotage resulting in MGK changing genres... when i found this out i died inside and was seriously upset because when i invisioned MGK and all the things about his music I loved I saw drugs, girls, ghettos and a skinny whiteboy covered in tatts pissed off at the world cruising the city with his crew of mixed mates spitting fast well balanced rhymes that flawlessly gunned him Down to dockers
Im so confused why the dude said Confessions of a dangerous mind was his worst album. It’s his best!! Like what? Some of his top songs are in that album: Icy, Homicide, On fire, Keanu reaves, etc.
@@gwentomologistI love Logic and COADM has some good tracks and one of my favorites (lost in translation), but it also has songs like Bobby and Don't be afraid to be different.
Vanilla Ice had a couple TV shows in the mid 2000s, where he would flip McMansions down in Florida. I'm pretty sure this was pre-2008, so that probably didn't end well for him.
It’s wild bc I really did like Everybody by Logic… but I also completely understand why everyone was clowning on him for constantly talking about being mixed. Some of his best songs were on that album imo … and some of his worst lmao. That album is supposed to be listened to front to back though, when certain songs are isolated it can be very cringe
SBTH isn’t even that bad of an album, yeah it has a lot of unpleasant sounds but if you have a taste in music that doesn’t cater to only rap and hip hop i believe you’d like at least a couple songs. the album is dark, emotional and full of passion and it’s so much more real than what most artists convey in their music and for that i appreciate this album far more than the general audience does. its gotten me through some tough shit due to its grittiness and how unapologetic it is, cudi really put his demons on display and i could relate to that. unpopular opinion but it doesn’t deserve the hate it gets
@@justinarzola4584 sounds like you didn’t even listen to it at all, it obviously has a lot of energy and ebbs and flows like any other musical production
Logic has NEVER been criticized for his bi--racialness. He's been criticized endlessly for bringing it up constantly, but never for being bi-racial. It's not racism directed at Logic, it's exhaustion.
I loved Speedin Bullet. It feels like a manic episode the whole time. Weird voices lurking around your brain that don’t sound like you anymore, but are in fact you. You try to escape the demonic noises of them but end up trapped. And there are some, what feel like good moments between the dark. And maybe the good moments are just acceptance of your lived reality. Trauma gives that sensual feel but yells discomfort. CONFUSED! Is one of my favorites, the excited clashing of instruments, yet the dark lyrics of, “I might go losing it and drive off a cliff.” Very well put together. There was still some nuance too. Adventures to me was old Cudi, but also a foreshadowing into Passion Pain and DS.
This best describes this album. Those who are going thru their shit find solace that someone else has similar feels about their life in that current moment.
As it pertains to logic I felt like Bohemian Trapsody was an unexpectedly good song. I didn’t mind his switch up especially considering his track record of overused lyrics.
I actually once opened for a band that on another occasion opened for Vanilla Ice's Metal band. I basically met the man that met Andy Griffith #bawoosh
Speedin bullet to heaven is one of my favorite rock albums. The songs were real and raw. He held nothing back, and I feel like the Beavis and butthead sketches were the comic relief of the album due to all the dark vibes and lyrics. It was so different that it's off-putting but if you listen you'll find something you like about it. Also didn't help that apple music listed it as a hip-hop album without cudis consent so a bunch of people were tricked into buying it
Lil Wayne really did try different things during that era. I mean between his major projects Carter III and Carter IV he had Drought 3, No ceilings, We are young money, Rebirth, Sorry 4 the wait and during those years something like 80 features. I mean he probably needed to keep things interesting for himself. Probably for most fans it's just a sideproject that brought Drop the world and that song with Nicki Minaj
Vanilla Ice also came back in the UK during the 2000's. He teamed up with the Irish pop duo Jedward do a mash up cover of Ice Ice Baby and Under Pressure.
I left a comment on a video a couple days ago or maybe several, but I’ve watched another 10 videos from you. Keep these coming sorry I’m late to the show!
Really depends on the fan of the artist. I love kid cudi and I got into metal, punk and rock before hip hop. I liked speedin bullet to heaven. It’s not the best but it’s punk rock for sure
Kid cudi album is one that will be one that ages like whiskey. I argue that SBTH is better than Entergalactic. 90% of cudi lyrics are dark even when theyre meant to be happy lol. His persona is literally MOTM. Dark side of the moon come on. He expresses the ingenuity in the world and how his pure intentions are tested by a darker force. If youre looking for more insight of how that force behaves for him as a fan that album is a necessity.
Rebirth went gold had hits and had the biggest cultural impact on the new gen it’s definitely a success f the critics who mad Wayne side missioned their genre
Lil Wayne was probably on drugs when he did Rebirth. But I still rocked with it, tracks was slamming. Especially the one he did with Nicki on a rock verse
"Too cold" actually isn't terrible, and the weird thing is that Vanilla Ice somehow managed to get atleast a bit relevant again, mainly because of 90s nostalgia shows.
conceptually i love speedin bullet 2 heaven. it’s a genuine expression of pain, with no attempt at compromising its sound for a commercial audience. as an art snob, that’s right up my alley. it sucks that the music on it is just not enjoyable to me at all, because i honestly have a lot of respect for it
I guess the general population is perfectly okay with supporting a scumbag who makes mid music and sings like he's 13 when he's a fucking 33 year old man

Plus, the Beavis and Butthead skits obliterate any possibility of gleaning any meaningful experience from it. Like, WTF?
Lil Wayne might not have reached the heights he would've liked switching to Rock but we wouldn't have had Drop The World, On Fire, & yes Prom Queen surprisingly grows on you maybe Knockout, even as a Wayne fan I can't really listen to the rest but Ima give it another try thanks to this Video 👌🏽
Holy Fuck I slept on Rebirth I'm on Da Da Da got instant goosebumps halfway through, 4 tracks in and not a skip yet
Matty i really appreciate the MGK explanation at the start . As much hate as MGK gets he did not fail switching genres and the numbers prove that.
Tha Carter being right behind the High school musical 2 soundtrack is hilarious 1:50
Was introduced to MGK back in 2010 when i was 15 via the song 'Cleveland' and i immediately became a massive massive fan......fast forward to when i was 19 and i get a tattoo on my chest that is heavily inspired by MGK's own tattoo...2 years later and MGK disses Em setting in motion a speed run in self Sabotage resulting in MGK changing genres... when i found this out i died inside and was seriously upset because when i invisioned MGK and all the things about his music I loved I saw drugs, girls, ghettos and a skinny whiteboy covered in tatts pissed off at the world cruising the city with his crew of mixed mates spitting fast well balanced rhymes that flawlessly gunned him Down to dockers
I liked what Logic did and he’s improved so much
i didn’t even mind it all that much but yeah it got ripped apart by most folks
For real his last few albums have been top tier too
Im so confused why the dude said Confessions of a dangerous mind was his worst album. It’s his best!! Like what? Some of his top songs are in that album: Icy, Homicide, On fire, Keanu reaves, etc.
@@gwentomologist nah his best songs are from 2013-2015 those are just his most popular but generic ones
@@gwentomologistI love Logic and COADM has some good tracks and one of my favorites (lost in translation), but it also has songs like Bobby and Don't be afraid to be different.
The thing about MGK is he already had fans from the rock genre so it wasn’t really that hard for them to get around his new phase
Yeah. He wasn't a hardcore rapper, he had always made rock songs, people who rocked with him then didn't feel the difference
Prom queen, drop the world, and knockout were pretty big hits. They were played on the radio a lot when that album was released, I remember it
Speeding Bullet 2 Heaven was a Seance with Kurt Cobain ,it's fire,literally listen to it from top to bottom once a month
You wrong for letting us hear those secondes of logic music, didnt have to do us like that, that was cold man
Vanilla Ice had a couple TV shows in the mid 2000s, where he would flip McMansions down in Florida. I'm pretty sure this was pre-2008, so that probably didn't end well for him.
It’s wild bc I really did like Everybody by Logic… but I also completely understand why everyone was clowning on him for constantly talking about being mixed.
Some of his best songs were on that album imo … and some of his worst lmao. That album is supposed to be listened to front to back though, when certain songs are isolated it can be very cringe
Lil Wayne's rebirth was not a fail it went gold
SBTH isn’t even that bad of an album, yeah it has a lot of unpleasant sounds but if you have a taste in music that doesn’t cater to only rap and hip hop i believe you’d like at least a couple songs. the album is dark, emotional and full of passion and it’s so much more real than what most artists convey in their music and for that i appreciate this album far more than the general audience does. its gotten me through some tough shit due to its grittiness and how unapologetic it is, cudi really put his demons on display and i could relate to that. unpopular opinion but it doesn’t deserve the hate it gets
It's a very boring and slow album,no energy to it.
@@justinarzola4584 sounds like you didn’t even listen to it at all, it obviously has a lot of energy and ebbs and flows like any other musical production
@@MrDerpCentral it's very boring when you compare it to other grunge rock albums Cudi tried to emulate.
Keep up the good work, love you content man 🙏💪
Logic has NEVER been criticized for his bi--racialness. He's been criticized endlessly for bringing it up constantly, but never for being bi-racial. It's not racism directed at Logic, it's exhaustion.
I literally came here to see if you'd mention MGK, so to see that you acknowledge the fact that he's actually doing insanely well was nice to see
Akon. He switched to dance/afrobeats and failed miserably
I loved Speedin Bullet. It feels like a manic episode the whole time. Weird voices lurking around your brain that don’t sound like you anymore, but are in fact you. You try to escape the demonic noises of them but end up trapped. And there are some, what feel like good moments between the dark. And maybe the good moments are just acceptance of your lived reality. Trauma gives that sensual feel but yells discomfort. CONFUSED! Is one of my favorites, the excited clashing of instruments, yet the dark lyrics of, “I might go losing it and drive off a cliff.” Very well put together. There was still some nuance too. Adventures to me was old Cudi, but also a foreshadowing into Passion Pain and DS.
This best describes this album. Those who are going thru their shit find solace that someone else has similar feels about their life in that current moment.
Sb2h is one of kid cudi’s best idc what anyone says
@@fernandovillagomez6382 exactly. Until you go thru the shit, you wouldn’t understand the album
Edge of the earth is such a good song.
Uh.... Nah, yo.
Matty finally said something about Weezer and ofc its about Can't Stop Partying 💀
When I was in high school I listened to lil Wayne everyday and I still listen to lil Wayne to this day
As it pertains to logic I felt like Bohemian Trapsody was an unexpectedly good song. I didn’t mind his switch up especially considering his track record of overused lyrics.
Keep up the great work and don't let anyone stop you
I genuinely think Supermarket was a great album. One of my favorites.
I agree. When I'm not in the mood for rap I put it on. Nothing on there will ever be a number one, but all the tracks are solid.
I wonder how bad the audience retention slipped when you took off the subway surfers gameplay ☠️
I kind of liked Rebirth when I was younger, but it's been a while since I've heard it
Logic never switched genres he just did something different
I honestly think speeding bullet to heaven was amazing!
There's a lot of you in the comments. I just don't get it, and I can't.
I actually once opened for a band that on another occasion opened for Vanilla Ice's Metal band. I basically met the man that met Andy Griffith #bawoosh
It’s hard to call Vanilla Ice a failure when he is still more wealthy than most respected rappers today
Just stumbled upon your videos a couple of days ago... love the content and had to subscribe 🔥🔥🔥🔥
the family guy n subway surfer clips 😭
Stating that lil Wayne failed to go rock is crazy.
The amount of rappers who think making a rock album when they have never listened to rock music is a good idea is wild
L he listens to nirvana & Green Day 😂 ect
It works most the time
@@EgoMotionZ ok, he is just incapable of making it sound like he’s heard any then due to lack of talent 🤷♂️
@@Kumquat57 like when?
@@nicholassimon1419 kid cudi, lil wayne, lil uzi vert, and pharell williams
Speedin bullet to heaven is one of my favorite rock albums. The songs were real and raw. He held nothing back, and I feel like the Beavis and butthead sketches were the comic relief of the album due to all the dark vibes and lyrics. It was so different that it's off-putting but if you listen you'll find something you like about it. Also didn't help that apple music listed it as a hip-hop album without cudis consent so a bunch of people were tricked into buying it
Lil Wayne Rebirth is one of his greatest albums of all time.
people dont say mgk failed because he switched genres they say he switched genres because he failed at rapping
Lil Wayne really did try different things during that era. I mean between his major projects Carter III and Carter IV he had Drought 3, No ceilings, We are young money, Rebirth, Sorry 4 the wait and during those years something like 80 features. I mean he probably needed to keep things interesting for himself. Probably for most fans it's just a sideproject that brought Drop the world and that song with Nicki Minaj
Vanilla Ice also came back in the UK during the 2000's. He teamed up with the Irish pop duo Jedward do a mash up cover of Ice Ice Baby and Under Pressure.
MGK went hard in both genres. I like both but I fuck heavy with his newer music but I do miss his rapping
Vanilla ice hard to swallow is pretty good if you like that type. I thought it was better then most of the rock bands coming out at that time.
I just discovered it from this video and holy shit. Defintely an album I'm gonna need to add to my collection
I left a comment on a video a couple days ago or maybe several, but I’ve watched another 10 videos from you. Keep these coming sorry I’m late to the show!
honestly huge respect for wayne for trying something new like that back then and while being at the top
Really depends on the fan of the artist. I love kid cudi and I got into metal, punk and rock before hip hop. I liked speedin bullet to heaven. It’s not the best but it’s punk rock for sure
Kid cudi album is one that will be one that ages like whiskey. I argue that SBTH is better than Entergalactic. 90% of cudi lyrics are dark even when theyre meant to be happy lol. His persona is literally MOTM. Dark side of the moon come on. He expresses the ingenuity in the world and how his pure intentions are tested by a darker force. If youre looking for more insight of how that force behaves for him as a fan that album is a necessity.
I was watching ur content since 1 year and now u have 160k shit crazy
Happy for ya dawg
ty bro 🙏🙏
Lil Wayne prom queen had me in a choke hold😭😂
Rebirth went gold had hits and had the biggest cultural impact on the new gen it’s definitely a success f the critics who mad Wayne side missioned their genre
Lil Wayne was probably on drugs when he did Rebirth. But I still rocked with it, tracks was slamming. Especially the one he did with Nicki on a rock verse
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
"Too cold" actually isn't terrible, and the weird thing is that Vanilla Ice somehow managed to get atleast a bit relevant again, mainly because of 90s nostalgia shows.
Now I feel you gotta make a video on artists that switched genres and had a huge success lmaooo
Rebirth wasnt successful?! Lies. It inspired a whole genre of rappers who felt comfortable experimenting in other genres. And the album went platinum
I love how happy Lil Wayne looked at the end of that shitty guitar solo. It’s just the cherry on top lmfao
😂
Idk I like a lot of songs from logic’s supermarket. It’s such a vibe for me.
one of my favorite youtubers!! keep it up bro!!
Rebirth wasn't Wayne's best project but it was mos Def a 'good album ' appreciate ya Matty ✌️♥️♠️
I would listen to rebirth every day for months after it came out and have been going back to it lately. Such a cool sound.
conceptually i love speedin bullet 2 heaven. it’s a genuine expression of pain, with no attempt at compromising its sound for a commercial audience. as an art snob, that’s right up my alley. it sucks that the music on it is just not enjoyable to me at all, because i honestly have a lot of respect for it
Good coverage here! Good vid, brother!
Thank you for bringing up MGK, his numbers r better than ever
I guess the general population is perfectly okay with supporting a scumbag who makes mid music and sings like he's 13 when he's a fucking 33 year old man
