Notes: Calling an album GANGSTA RAP might seem like an absurd platitude coming from any rapper other than Ice-T, the undisputed originator of the genre. Ice takes time off from his acting gig on LAW & ORDER: SVU to douse listeners with a potent shot of classic ghetto storytelling and explicit recaps of O.G. sexcapades. With a host of guests (including wife Coco) and a solid boom-bap production style dusted with the requisite g-funk flourishes, Ice-T takes the nearly-self-parodying thug posturing...

All songs written by Ice-T except "Intro" (Ice-T/Dave Storrs).

With his hit single "Ice Ice Baby" and its accompanying album, To the Extreme, Vanilla Ice became the second white rapper to top the charts. Unlike the Beastie Boys, he didn't have any street credibility, so the Miami-born rapper decided to invent some of his own, claiming he had a seriously violent gangster past. Nevertheless, "Ice Ice Baby" became a number one hit late in 1990, thanks to the pulsating bass riff from David Bowie and Queen's "Under Pressure." To the Extreme also went to the top of...

i know there has been a few of us talking about getting one for a couple years now, and since i misplaced mine, when i moved(it needed a new stylus anyways) thought i'd go for it, it can be hooked up like a regular turntable as well, i'll probably give it a go tonight, ill post, a link to the mp3's for everyone to hear...... i know the old reggae records won't sound too shit hot, but that's to be expected.

Notes: Personnel: Ice-T (vocals); Afrika Islam, Bilal Bashir (programming). As riveting as Rhyme Pays was, Ice-T did hold back a little and avoided being too consistently sociopolitical. But with the outstanding Power, the gloves came all the way off, and Ice didn't hesitate to speak his mind about the harsh realities of inner-city life. On "Drama," "Soul on Ice" (an homage to his idol Iceberg Slim), "High Rollers," and other gangsta rap gems, Ice embraces a first-person format and raps with brutal...

One MC and one DJ - it remains the most elemental group set up in hip-hop. Together, these two are known as Brother Reade and this debut full-length for Record Collection is the fruit of their labor. " Rap Music is a welcome change from most of the blunts/bitches/ice braggadocio dominating commercial airwaves, while still having the beat and swagger to keep its legendary house parties going until four in the morning" - Urb Magazine

Vanilla Ice - Hot Sex [PA] in Music: Rap
Though he is arguably pop music's most notorious punchline, former rap star Vanilla Ice remains one of the best-selling MCs of all time, thanks entirely to his 1990 Jive Records debut TO THE EXTREME and its notorious single "Ice Ice Baby." Due to dubious street credentials and equally dubious mic skills, Ice suffered one of the most brutal backlashes ever in the entertainment biz, causing his star to fall as quickly as it rose. Nonetheless, several image makeovers through the years (one as a pothead...

Vanilla Ice - Best Of Vanilla Ice - Ten Best Series in Music: Rap
Notes: Vanilla Ice is one of those artists whose best moments are widely considered indefensible, and many listeners will be satisfied with having "Ice Ice Baby" on a various-artists compilation for the nostalgia and/or kitsch value. For those who want a bigger extract (ha!) of Vanilla's career, The Best of Vanilla Ice offers ten tracks that summarize things pretty effectively. There's one major selection drawback, namely that the hit version of "Play That Funky Music" is replaced by a live performance...

Notes: Personnel: Rayfield "Ray Ray" Holloman (acoustic guitar); Kenneth Wright (bass guitar). Recording information: Endtyme Studios, Philadelphia, PA. After having garnered fame for his appearances on Def Poetry Jam, spoken-word artist and slam poet Black Ice breaks new ground on his debut, 2006's THE DEATH OF WILLIE LYNCH. Over beats by producer Eric "Booty" Greene, Ice has created a concept album and a sound not often heard in hip-hop, a sound that should appeal to fans of the genre's roots....

Notes: Additional personnel: Dr. Dre, Ice-T, K-Dee, Mack 10, Master P, Mr. Short Khop, Ms. Toi, Paul Oakenfold (rap vocals). As a founding member of N.W.A., Ice Cube earned his rep as one of the most controversial hip-hop artists of the late 1980s and early '90s. As such, it was hard to imagine that after a string of grimly titled solo albums (AMERIKKKA'S MOST WANTED, DEATH CERTIFICATE, THE PREDATOR, LETHAL INJECTION), Cube would successfully cross over into Hollywood as an actor, screenwriter, and...

Notes: Personnel: MC Hammer (rap vocals); Vanilla Ice (rap vocals); Naomi Campbell (vocals). MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice are a great pairing for a Back 2 Back Hits disc. Both artists were the personification of pop-rap in the late '80s/early '90s, and they unexpectedly became million-selling artists on the strength of just a handful of singles. MC Hammer's five songs do an excellent job of gathering his best material, as all of his biggest hits -- "U Can't Touch This," "Addams Groove," "2 Legit 2 Quit...

Notes: The best thing about Vanilla Ice is his fearlessness to try new things, fall flat on his face every time in public, not care about what other people think, and then move on to the next exploitable trend. When we last left our hero, he was dealing with other people gasping for their last breath of fame's air on VH1's reality show The Surreal Life and unleashing Hot Sex upon an unsuspecting (if uncaring) public. Fast forward two years later and you find him at it again with Platinum Underground...
