Rollin' In My 5.0
"Rollin' in my 5.0" is a hip hop song written by American rapper Vanilla Ice. The song samples ''"Fly Like an Eagle"'' by the Steve Miller Band. The studio version of the song was only found on the single as it was originally intended to be featured on '' Mind Blowin''. It is about Vanilla Ice's 5.0 Liter Foxbody Mustang ( Ford Mustang (third generation)). Lyrics The name is a reference to a part in " Ice Ice Baby". The song is a rap ballad following Ice's adventures cruising around Miami with the V.I.P. Posse, looking for girls while competing in illegal street racing. Ice also thanks his fans for buying his last album.

Born in South Dallas, and raised in Texas and South Florida, Ice released his debut album, ''Hooked'', in 1989 on Ichiban Records, before signing a contract with SBK Records, a record label of the EMI Group, which released a reformatted version of the album in 1990 under the title ''To the Extreme'' which became the fastest-selling hip hop album of all time and contained Ice's best-known hits: "Ice Ice Baby" and a cover of "Play That Funky Music".

Songs contain various song form, forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections.

Vanilla Ice Songs
Vanilla is a spice derived from orchids of the genus ''Vanilla'', primarily obtained from pods of the Mexican species, flat-leaved vanilla ('' V. planifolia''). Pollination is required to make the plants produce the fruit from which the vanilla spice is obtained. In 1837, Belgian botanist Charles François Antoine Morren discovered this fact and pioneered a method of artificially pollinating the plant. The method proved financially unworkable and was not deployed commercially. In 1841, Edmond Albius, a 12-year-old enslaved child who lived on the French island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean, discovered that the plant could be hand-pollinated. Hand-pollination allowed global cultivation of the plant. Noted French botanist and plant collector Jean Michel Claude Richard falsely claimed to have discovered the technique three or four years earlier. By the end of the 20th century, Albius was considered the true discoverer. Three major species of vanilla currently are grown ...

Platinum Underground
''Platinum Underground'' is the fifth studio album by American rapper Vanilla Ice. Released on August 16, 2005, it is the rapper's third independent release, after ''Hooked'' and '' Bi-Polar''. Allmusic reviewer Rob Theakston panned the album, writing that it "has more bad spots in it than most unless you are a diehard fan". The title alludes to Ice's current tours playing to fans of underground music, in contrast to his history as an RIAA certified platinum artist. He followed up the album with 2011's '' W.T.F.''. Production ''Platinum Underground'' was the first Vanilla Ice album with original content released by Ultrax since 1994. Van Winkle was interested in using all the different genres he had experiences with in earlier albums, not focusing on marketing or trying to attract a certain audience. Songs like "Trailer Park Mullet Wars" and "Step Up or Shut Up" were a hybrid mix of different heavy metal sounds, while "Say Goodbye" and "Bounce" were new school hip hop. The res ...
