Of course, this all begs the question of whether or not anybody should care about icon status, as clearly, it's not necessarily related to talent.

Rhythm f*ckin Nation! >_<
Everybody who knows Vanilla ice knows that song as well.
Even if that one hit by Vanilla ice was bigger than any of hers she has always been a mainstream artist and most ppl can name at least one song from her because she actually had a career not just a one hit single.
But even if ppl can't name one of her songs they at least know she was a musician were as Vanilla ice is mostly remembered as a joke from the 90's.
