Today, Bronx phenom Ice Spice drops her explosive, wildly anticipated official debut album, Y2K!, out now via 10K Projects/Capitol Records. The Grammy-nominated rapper and pop culture sensation rang in the occasion from the top of the Empire State Building last night, lighting the tower up orange. Earlier in the day, Rolling Stone debuted their Ice Spice cover (on stands September 1) and she continues her victory lap tonight, bringing white hot single “Did It First” to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
Y2K! pulls no punches, knocking down the door with “Phat Butt” as Ice spits over earthquaking bass, “Rap bitch on a pop chart, toastin’ bitches like Pop-Tarts / You’s a flop, bitch, knock it off, where the champagne? I’ma pop it off.” Fans have been celebrating, too, since Ice confirmed features from Travis Scott (“Oh Shhh…”), Gunna (“Bitch I’m Packin’”), and Central Cee on the fast rising “Did It First.” The video for that infidelity anthem (watch HERE) has racked up over 13M views, while the song hit new peaks on Spotify’s US (#34) and Global (#41) charts, became the #1 most added on Rhythm Radio, fueled more than 100,000 TikTok creates, and amassed more than 1 billion views across short form via various social platforms.
Ice’s first LP comes stacked with hits, including the Sean Paul-sampling “Gimmie A Light” and hater-dismissing “Think U The Shit (Fart),” which she recently brought to the BET Awards 2024. View HERE. Y2K! endlessly demonstrates what Pitchfork has hailed as Ice’s “diabolical knack for hooks,” pairing her precise no-frills delivery with bass-heavy beats from her go-to producer RiotUSA.
