Ice Spice, the blossoming rap sensation, in a recent interview about her very legendary relationship with Nicki Minaj, talked to Rolling Stone about her personal and professional connections that have highly influenced her career. Mentioning personal and professional connections that have hugely influenced her career, one could feel the young artist’s excitement.
The duo of Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj gave birth to a few hits, one of the most famous being “Princess Diana (Remix)” and the other one “Barbie World,” which was included in the soundtrack of the movie Barbie. Apart from generating both a stir and hysteria among fans, these two pieces had one more common point; both of them were received with positive critical reception, with the remix of “Princess Diana” going all the way up to first place in the U.S. iTunes chart. It is, therefore not by accident or sheer luck that such has occurred between the above two artists. The two styles have met and resulted in amazing music.
It was very emotional when Ice Spice met Nicki Minaj for the first time. She related how she had been so nervous but those were tears of joy when Nicki gave her a warm reception, her morale booster in that emerging career.
“I was so nervous, but when Nicki hugged me, it felt like everything I had worked for was finally real,”
revealed Ice Spice. She clearly admired Nicki, relating just how huge that moment was for her, both personally and professionally.
Essentially, respect is mutual between Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj. If they are not very good friends, there is certainly a certain level of professionalism and mutual admiration between the two.
Ice Spice insisted that Nicki’s mentorship has been invaluable, more than anything, guiding and advising her through every process of growth in the artistry.
“Nicki’s advice is like gold to me. She’s been through it all, and having her perspective is incredibly rewarding,”
noted Ice Spice.
Their professional relationship further cements with Nicki Minaj’s label, Heavy On It. Although Ice Spice has not yet signed onto the label, she often works closely with Nicki in music-based activities. This has so far been helpful in making their joint effort very well received and topping charts. In other words, what is so nice about the rapport between Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj is an example of mutual respect and professional working together.
