Production, Release and Reception
The album was first released as a digital download on November 4, 2008, and on compact disc on November 11, 2008. According to Vanilla Ice, he did not have creative control over the production of the album, but he chose most of the songs. IGN reviewer Spence D. wrote "From uninspired rap/rock interpretations to thin voiced funk interpretations on down to the poor synth break beats, is an embarrassing endeavor that sounds like it should have stayed locked inside Ice's studio (or at the very least leaked on YouTube and passed off as a piss take)."
The cover is based on Elvis Presley's 10th studio album: Elvis Is Back!.

Famous quotes containing the words release and/or reception:
“The steel decks rock with the lightning shock, and shake with the
great recoil,
And the sea grows red with the blood of the dead and reaches for his spoil—
But not till the foe has gone below or turns his prow and runs,
Shall the voice of peace bring sweet release to the men behind the
guns!”
—John Jerome Rooney (1866–1934)
“But in the reception of metaphysical formula, all depends, as regards their actual and ulterior result, on the pre-existent qualities of that soil of human nature into which they fall—the company they find already present there, on their admission into the house of thought.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
