In a delightful exchange of admiration, Ice Spice, the rising rap sensation, received a birthday surprise from Playboi Carti with the release of their collaborative track “BACKR00MS,” featuring Travis Scott.
The song, dropping on January 1, coincided perfectly with Ice Spice’s 24th birthday, and the “Princess Diana” rapper took to social media to express her approval.
Ice Spice shared her excitement by posting the title of the song on her X profile, indicating her gratitude for the shout-out in Carti’s lyrics.
The collaboration didn’t stop there, as Carti further showcased his fondness for Ice Spice by sharing an NSFW image of the four-time Grammy Award nominee on his Instagram Stories.
Carti’s affection for Ice Spice is evident in the lyrics of “BACKR00MS,” where he raps, “I think I need me an Ice Spice, yeah, I want me a munch.”
The reference adds to the list of accolades for Ice Spice, who has been recognized in various songs by prominent artists. Notably, Lil Uzi Vert mentioned her in the Pink Tape track “Spin Again,” and NLE Choppa dedicated an entire song to her in the past.
