Ice Spice has revealed plans to drop her debut album titled Y2K later this year and teased a “crazy” feature on the project.
Fresh off the release of her new single, “Think U The S### (Fart),” the Bronx-bred artist is giving her fans something to look forward to. On Tuesday (January 30), Ice Spice announced her first full-length offering during an appearance on NBC’s morning news show Today.
“Yes, there’s going to be an album,” she told hosts Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager. ”This year. I’m so excited,” she told hosts Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager. “It’s called ‘Y2K’, it’s almost finished, so I’m really excited.”
Ice Spice confirmed the Y2K title is a reference to her birthday (January 1, 2000), and teased a feature although she gave little else away.
“I have a crazy collaboration that just got locked in, like two days ago,” Ice Spice confirmed.
The flame-haired singer has already worked with some heavyweight artists, teaming up with Taylor Swift and scoring a No. 2 on the Billboard 100 chart with “Karma.” Ice also teamed up with fellow NYC rapper Nicki Minaj. The pair partnered on two tracks, “Princess Diana” and “Barbie World,” earning Ice Spice another pair of Top. 10 hits.
Ice Spice could snag the coveted Best New Artist award at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards this weekend (February 4). She also has the chance to win another three awards at this year’s ceremony. She is nominated for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance alongside Taylor Swift for the “Karma” collab.
Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj’s “Barbie World” made it into the Best Rap Song and Best Song Written for Visual Media categories.
