I had this performance on VHS as a kid in 1990. I watched it 100s of times and learned the moves to bust at the school dance!!! It inspired my music career that spanned two decades and 5 albums!
This was the first hip hop number 1 in the pop charts EVER. And he done it in multiple countries. Every time he performs it he never uses a backing track. He's by no means my favourite rapper, but you gotta respect the guy
Vanilla ice is one of a kind! He grew up generations and was way ahead of his time.. His choreography from another planet and his beauty and dressing throughout time until now. A legend
I'm sorry I love some vanilla ice... He look like he was having fun... He was doing it... Back then I think blacks were upset with not getting as much credit as other artists so they took it out on him.... He was dope to me.
He is still performing. I went and saw him live two nights ago. February 4th 2023. And he still dances his butt off while performing. He's a very down to earth guy too. Love me some Vanilla Ice
I was 16 years old and I was at that event and I see it now here on RUclips and it fills me with nostalgia that 30 years have already passed, greetings from Guadalajara Mexico
So no offense but how are you still alive?? I mean Guadalajara literally is like a playground of guns and shit of people fighting. Your a legend for surviving that long
Holy crap! The guy is out there dancing up a storm and somehow rapping too without sounding out of breath at all. He must have been hitting the gym for cardio every day to keep that up. So impressive and ahead of his time for this!
@@electrictroy2010 he had more than one hit and he can freestyle. I just saw him in concert two nights ago. February 4th 2023 he started freestyling and talked about paving the way for Eminem. It was freaking awesome! You keep posting the same comment under different people. Your jealousy is pathetic.
I was a 15 white boy trying to be a rapper as well. No doubt this jam was hot when it dropped. It bummed me out when for some reason it became popular to diss him. I was thrilled to see him as an adult being interviewed and seeing what a great and happy man he is now. Rob - congratulations. You did well. Also the Arsenio interview backfired in his face and you are the one who got the last laugh!

It’s hilarious a white guy can come out and do the MC Hammer exact same thing but less talented and get the props he got. Very telling. I went to see Hammer as a kid and this guy was opening for him on tour. Because white America strongly supported him to the level of getting him to 160 million in sales he’s held today as >Hammer. America is a wild place. White people can literally take from black people and profit off their creations to astronomical scales. There’s white kids on Tik Tok currently doing vids of black kid created dances and making millions and don’t even give the black kids any credit whatsoever. The cycle continues. SMH.

One of the greatest reasons he was and still is awesome as a rapper is that he doesnt use vulgar or foul language on his music. He keeps it pretty clean yall!❤

Cannot believe I actually remember seeing this on TV back then. I was just 11yo, or 12yo, back in 1991 when this aired. Where has the time gone to? Everything was better back then, and not just because I was younger, but because everything actually was. Really miss those times back then, especially without all of this bickering everyone does now, and the silliness going around in schools, and being taught to everyone. Seems like being on another planet now, compared to back then.
Same show where New Kids On The Block performed “No More Games” with a dance troupe led by Jennifer Lopez and also Flavor Flav just popped out in the middle of the song. AND, MC Hammer performed on this show, too.
I've done this on Karaoke night with the dance, and I know damn well what a cardio workout it is. You must have been legit in shape to do a whole damn concert.
MC Hammer did this x1000 but the white guy is the pinnacle? Strange I saw him open up for Hammer on tour as a kid. But I guess if a lot of white people buy your music it makes you better than the artist that did it 1st. Smh. It’s crazy how much people take from us and profit. They’ll even claim it as their own creation at some point.

@@brandonbyes7344 he bought a lot of mainstream to hip hop so did MC Hammer and they spoke out against them calling them sell outs and the truth is he out sold them.

Lots of top 100 hits too
This song is a classic!!
Brasilll
He's a talentless hack fam
He was the TOTAL package that's why he was mocked. The haters are going to hate. He was a great performer! Period.
He was. He could dance, rap, wrote his own stuff, and looked fly doing it.
He's the greatest rapper who has ever lived! Also the greatest dancer of all-time!
Freedom Williams in C&C music factory had more hits. So did Hammer… and Eminem. Etc.
I hate that dude tank top though
@@shapursasan9019 his 1 song? thats all it takes?
