Ice'n'Green is a 1994 album by British, Italy based Eurodance artist ICE MC. It was his third album and produced three successful singles. It includes two versions for each of two of his greatest hits, "It's a Rainy Day" and "Think About the Way". Later, the album was re-released with remixed versions and was re-entitled Ice'n'Green (The Remix Album). Roberto Zanetti, well known under his pseudonym of Robyx, wrote and produced all tracks.

The album achieved success in France, where it peaked at #5 for two weeks in January 1995. It remained in the top 50 for twenty weeks and eventually earned a gold disc. It was briefly ranked for a sole week in Austria, three weeks in Sweden, six weeks in Switzerland and nine weeks in Germany, but was unable to reach the top 30 in these countries. The album passed almost unnoticed in the U.S. and was not charted in the UK.

Generally, the album received positive reviews from critics. Allmusic stated : "Like many dance albums, this has too many tracks that sound alike, but Ice'n'Green is a lot of fun and consistently enjoyable."[2]
