Vanilla Ice, Remodeled

Soundcheck | Jan 26, 2012

"The Vanilla Ice Project" recently kicked off its second season on the DIY Network. Today, we get a lesson in home improvement from the rapper behind the '90s hit "Ice Ice Baby" -- Vanilla Ice, aka Rob Van Winkle.

Plus: Our Supercollectors series gets an early start, when we talk with Brent Birnbaum - a Brooklyn-based supercollector who owns more than 300 pieces of Vanilla Ice memorabilia. Seriously. Check out his collection in our Supercollectors gallery (it's photo #6).
