It fits their brand perfectly and ticks all the youth marketing buzz words:
- Irreverence (tick)
- Music (tick)
- Interactivity (tick)
- Humour (tick)
It centres around the 'Vanilla Ice Says Sorry' video - which contains spliced footage from the Vanilla Ice VH1 doco from a few years ago.
As part of the site, you can read the case for why Vanilla Ice is guilty or innocent of creating a music 'wrong' :
FOR: He wrote 'Ice Ice Baby' when he was just 16. And 20 years on it's still the biggest selling Rap record of all time
AGAINST: He wrote one song (and that beat was allegedly borrowed from someone with real talent)

You can also vote for what you think is the worst thing to happen to music. I personally don't think it is Vanilla Ice. I've been guilty of singing along (and I recently discovered that I subconsciously know all the words to the first 60 seconds or so...)
At the moment, Milli Vanilli is winning, with The Hoff not far behind.
You can vote yourself here and also report your own music wrong... look out Eiffel65 ("I'm blue da ba dee da be dee") and Aqua's Barbie Girl!
