Vanilla Ice x Virgin Mobile. It’s been a long time since Robert Van Winkle (AKA Vanilla Ice) has had any type of commercial endorsement deal. Nineteen years after the success of “Ice, Ice, Baby,” Van Winkle is featured in these internet Virgin Mobile ads apologizing for the song and for his past success. Watch the video and then go to their official viral site RightMusicWrongs for more details. Via: ProHipHop

Yeti says: You know the money is coming short when Van Winkle has to diss his own songs to pay the bills. Maybe that has to deal with the fact that Van Winkle sold the rights to his first album for a measly $300K back in the day with limited royalties.
