Vanilla Ice apologizes for his music

He says he was manipulated, presumably by record labels, but the apology is a marketing gig for a record label: http://rightmusicwrongs.org/

But it's a funny one, and I for one want to see Michael Bolton apologize next.

Now he's older and has hundreds of millions of dollars. That makes the apology easier.

@NickFun,
Nah, he was nearly bankrupt very shortly after his success, and now has to do apologies like this to make money.

@Robert Gentel,
Why's he apologizing - first of all - I loved that song and secondly without Vanilla Ice - we'd never had had the opportunity for stuff like this:


He's enriched the world in his own special way.

@aidan,
Thanks Aidan - I think I've gained new respect for Jim Carey (but none for VI)

@Dorothy Parker,
I wanted to say something witty and derogatory, Wildean if you will. But all I could come up with your namesake's 'You can lead a horticulture, but you can't make her think'

I just liked the song it samples so much (in all it's overwrought angst) that some white dude rapping over it to tell me what a great rapper he was was unconscionable, back then. Now I accept it. Maybe one day Madonna's version of 'American Pie' will also be acceptable. Well if there can be peace in Ireland...
