Platinum Underground is the seventh studio album by Vanilla Ice. Released on August 16, 2005, the album's insert contains the photographs from the original Bi-Polar CD case.

The album includes a remake of his Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze song "Ninja Rap", called "Ninja Rap 2", the new version dedicated to the Juggalos rather than the Turtles. "Ice Ice Baby" is re-recorded again for this album. "Survivor" is a pseudo-cover of the Destiny's Child song "Survivor". Track 11: "Bounce" heavily samples Ace Frehley's version of New York Groove, from his KISS Solo Album. Tracks 16 through 24 are answering machine messages and phone conversations from various people including Tammy Faye Messner (whom he had recently co-stared with in the reality television show The Surreal Life). Vanilla Ice had similar answering machine tracks at the end of his previous album Bi-Polar. Track 25 is a music box like instrumental song.
