Icing On Vanilla (pt.3)

I told you it would be concluded...

Yeah, yeah... I haven't written anything for months now, but I'm back, and, this time, I'm seriously back. Now, why haven't I written for so long? Well, I guess I didn't seem to care about the blog, just like Darth Icey didn't seem to care for the cover on Platinum Underground.


Just for the hell of it, let's analyze this shopped load of meh:

-He is still convinced that his fanbase is stupid (which may or may not be true), and won't be able to understand it's Uncle V just by the logo, so he also puts his name in the most cheesy font imaginable;

-The cover seems to scream "LOOK AT MY TATTOOES LOL!!!111!", one of them claiming he is a quality product of the States (does America REALLY want everyone to be a patriot?);

-He makes a good decision by recommending parents to be informed of what lyrics their kids are listening to (the poor things will miss those dead brain cells);


"Ninja, ninja, RAP! Ninja, ninja, RAP! Ninja, ninja, RAP!
GO GO GO GO
Go ninja, go ninja, GO; Go ninja, go ninja, GO!
Go ninja, go ninja, GO; Go ninja, go ninja, GO!
GO GO GO GO"
is a really inspired chorus...


-He also puts some random, unneeded crap;



-...And a lunar eclypse with bats, for good measure.


All of this is, of course, completely useless, and he realizes that. He himself states WTF on his soon to be released new album...

Need an extinguisher there?

... Which leads us to the final part of Icing On Vanilla:

You'd think that, by now, his fanbase would consist of him, Vanilla Ice, and V-Ice. Think again. If you took the time to check that link, you might have noticed all the 5-star ratings there. That means he has a rather big fanbase that is devoted to him like if being a fan of Vanilla Ice were a religion...

Above: God

And that makes you think: This guy sucks ass, but he tries time and again, doesn't give up, and keeps sucking ass. Yet, he still smiles (stupidly, but at least he does...). He knows he sucks, but he does music because he likes to. He doesn't get recognition because he doesn't deserve it. He is not a sellout. He has experienced fame, and has turned away from it, and there are people who understand him and support him no matter what. Isn't that all a musician wishes for, when you're in it for the music? Sometimes, it's good to follow the example of an idiot...
