Vanilla Ice Dislikes Rap Song for New TMNT Movie

[synobal]

Just listening to the song I think it sounds terrible.

I'm pretty sure he just said that to get some headlines again. I mean, he hasn't been in any news for years. When was the last rime you heard of anything recent from vanilla fucking ice?
That said I do prefer the old classic "go ninja go" song. At least that one is memorable with some personality to it. The new one is just boring splurge. So there is some truth to what he says.

 

[Something Amyss]

Out of the two "ninja" songs, I definitely go with Vanilla Ice song always!

That said, the new song is so bland and boring it's perfect for Bay Turtles. This is the guy who managed to make big stompy transforming robots boring.

The last time he was actively sought out for this sort of thing.

Which is what happened here.

I never can understand why people accuse folks who were actively sought out (and usually paid) to make a statement of "just doing it for attention." He didn't start a Twitter war, he was asked by freaking GQ.

Ah, didn't know that. Can't blame him for that then, and I do agree with him. The new one is pretty bad... Just like the movie (probably)

Rap...

Ninja Turtles...

"Shellshocked"...

Official Song...

Ty Dolla $ign...

Rap...

WHAT THE BLOODY HECK IS GOING ON!?!?

Singing a corporate sponsored song about giant mutated CGI turtles. Yeah that's gangsta.

 

[Kaimax]

Kryme >>>> Vanilla Ice>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> this new shit
and this is actually my first time hearing the 2 older songs.

 

[Riot3000]

I personally like the song not the greatest musically achievement in human history but light catchy and fun and corny in the right way. Ah the go ninja song that was some good nostalgia.

In my my opinion it goes Turtle Power, Shell Shocked, Go Ninja Go.

 

[Scorpid]

Lol Vanilla Ice is right. But both songs stink but his is at least catchy. The other is just another pop rap song that just happens to involve turtles. I dispise the sort of community that lets Lil Wayne thrive.

 

[RJ Dalton]

He says it sounds artificial. Well, it does have Wiz Khalifa in it.
On the other hand, Vanilla Ice doesn't exactly have great cred, so this is, what? The pot calling the kettle black?

 

[zelda2fanboy]

Here's something I never thought I'd think "I agree with Vanilla Ice."

 

[LobsterFeng]

Ty Dolla $ign? Jesus Christ that would be the perfect parody name if it wasn't actually used seriously by someone. Either way I can't stop laughing.

 

[SonOfVoorhees]

Kids cant be kids anymore. Everything has to be aggressive. Nothing can ever be fun and catchy for the kids. Im 37, still can sing along to Turtle Power. That song is awesome.

 

[SonOfVoorhees]

Ty Dolla $ign? Jesus Christ that would be the perfect parody name if it wasn't actually used seriously by someone. Either way I can't stop laughing.

Imagine a rapper version of scrabble. No combination of letters would ever be wrong if you add enough dollar signs to it.

This is the second time that I've listened to this now (I believe the first was also an embedded video in a news article on this website) and, while I still wouldn't be particularly fond of it, I think if you were to remove 00:31~00:58 it would be much more bearable.

I can't say I know who any of these people are (and, going by other's comments, that's apparently lucky) but whomever that bearded twonk is, his lyrical 'ability' sucks spuds.

Ice's comments are quite ironic considering he was unaware of the Ninja Turtles before his involvement in the second film and that involvement was the result of a decision by "a bunch of executives in the corporate world".

 

[FPLOON]

Why hasn't Kryme and Vanilla Ice made a rap single together? (That Cool As Ice soundtrack only had them together on the same album... and I don't count that at all... )

OT: Between that new song and Vanilla's Go Ninja Go song, in terms of Ninja Turtles movie theme songs... I'll stick with either Kryme's version or Gym Class Heroes' version, thank you very much...

Other that that... I agree with Vanilla Ice on this one... and yet, I still want an instrumental version of that "Shell Shock" "song" for "some reason"...

 

[nightmare_gorilla]

this may be my favorite news story ever, it's certainly the best one about the new turtles movie.

I agree. And at least he didn't force the TMNT theme in the song, and it had the word "ninja" in the freaking lyrics ("Bandanna on my face like a gangsta" *facepalm*)
