    Failure or not, i actually like when artists try to expand their sound. Switching genres, even just for one album. It’s a huge risk for many reasons. It may not be good, but it’s experimental and I like that.

    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.

    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!

    Lil Wayne really did try different things during that era.

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

If youre looking for more insight of how that force behaves for him as a fan that album is a necessity.
