Furthermore alongside MC Hammer, Vanilla was one of several pop-rappers to help mainstream the then burgeoning genre, and in a sense paved the way for the genre's future success.

Joined by the industrial-grade snark of Matt Fanale (Caustic / Klack) the three of them discover that some nostalgia simply cannot be reckoned with, as they face Vanilla Ice head on by listening to his mega-selling full-length debut To The Extreme.
