Coming at No. 11, Ice Spice rose to prominence in late 2022 with her hit song “Munch (Feelin’ U),” swiftly gaining recognition in the rap scene. However, it was her collaboration with Drake, who played “Munch (Feelin’ U)” on his Sirius XM radio station, that truly propelled her into the spotlight.
Furthermore, she garnered the interest of Young Money and collaborated with rap icon Nicki Minaj for their song “Princess Diana,” reaching No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 in April 2023. The track, featuring the Queen of Rap, was released under the “Super Freaky Girl” rapper’s recently established label, Heavy On It, indicating Minaj’s signing of Ice Spice in a partnership agreement.
But Ice Spice didn’t stop there. On May 24, 2023, she joined forces with pop superstar Taylor Swift for their song “Karma,” remixing the already chart-topping hit. The collaboration soared to number two on the Hot 100, further solidifying her status as an artist to watch. Meanwhile, Ice Spice’s EP titled Like…? surpassed 1 billion streams on Spotify, and her collaboration with Nicki Minaj on “Barbie World” earned her a Grammy nomination, showcasing her far-reaching success across genres.
While Ice Spice has faced some controversies, including an alleged leaked sex tape, she has persevered and remained focused on her music career.
As Ice Spice continues her meteoric rise in the music industry, another talented artist, Sexyy Red, is also making waves in the hip-hop world. Like the Bronx rapper, Sexyy Red has captivated listeners with her unapologetic music and distinctive style.
