Description: Watch the full interview now as a VladTV Youtube Member - https://www.youtube.com/vladtv/join Part 4: https://youtu.be/XSB1T2gh-8M Part 6: https://youtu.be/PT39ZIuXKjM Part 1: https://youtu.be/HKaAZbCdMDo -------- In this clip, Vanilla Ice discussed how signing away his publishing rights for around $4 million acted as seed money for the formation of Death Row Records. The infamous incident involved Suge Knight, who Vanilla Ice alluded had applied strong-arm tactics to secure the money. The clip also touched on accusations that "Chocolate" had written some of Vanilla Ice's biggest hits. Chocolate, managed by Knight, produced lyric sheets as proof and claimed credit on earlier records. This led to a $400,000 advance being given to Chocolate to secure a publishing deal, much of which went to Knight. Despite the history, Vanilla Ice refused to comment on Knight's recent prison sentence, suggesting that the truth was more complex than public narratives suggest.
