Ice Spice recently took the stage at the BET Awards, delivering electrifying performances of her tracks “Phat Butt” and “Think U the Sht (Fart).” The Bronx native, known for her bold and unapologetic style, captivated the audience with her dynamic presence and confident lyrics.
In the “Phat Butt” music video, which Ice Spice directed herself, she stands in front of a graffiti-painted garage door, embodying the song’s title with artwork depicting a thong-sporting rear end. The video showcases her unique style and self-assured attitude, as she raps, “Got these bi**hes copying my pose/ Got these bi**hes biting all my flows/ Like ballerinas, keep ’em on they toes/ And I really write, like f**k a ghost.”
The song “Phat Butt” has been generating buzz on social media, with fans drawing comparisons between Ice Spice and rap veteran Nicki Minaj. From the bangs she sports in the video to her quick flow, the Gen-Z star is making waves in the rap scene. This track follows her previous releases “Think U the Sht (Fart)” and “Gimmie A Light,” all of which are expected to be part of her upcoming debut album, Y2K.
Ice Spice has described Y2K as a drill album, but she promises a variety of beats that her fans haven’t heard from her before. In an interview with TODAY.com, she expressed her excitement about the new sounds and her eagerness to see how her fans will react to them.
In addition to her new music, Ice Spice is gearing up for her first-ever global headline tour, the Y2K! WORLD TOUR. The tour will take her across Europe, the UK, and North America, with festival dates including Roskilde Festival in Denmark, Rolling Loud Europe in Austria, and Wireless Festival in London. The 24-date tour will kick off in Europe and then move to North America, with stops in major cities like Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, New York, Toronto, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, Oakland, Atlanta, and Miami.
Ice Spice shared her love for performing at festivals, describing them as her favorite type of performance because of the excited and vibrant atmosphere. She enjoys the energy of the crowd and the outdoor setting, which she finds more enjoyable than indoor performances.
The North American leg of her tour will feature special guests RIOTUSA and Cash Cobain, who will join her on all dates. Fans can look forward to an unforgettable experience as Ice Spice brings her unique style and energy to the stage.
The “Phat Butt” music video has been well-received, with fans praising Ice Spice’s creativity and confidence. The video features her lip-synching and dancing in front of a graffitied wall with a massive booty, perfectly capturing the essence of the song. In the bridge of the song, she takes aim at other female rappers who have copied her style, rapping, “Got these bi**hes copying my pose/ Got these bi**hes biting all my flows/ Like ballerinas, keep ’em on they toes/ And I really write, like f**k a ghost.”
Ice Spice encouraged her fans to join in the fun by sharing photos of their own behinds on social media, starting a “phat butt thread” on X. This interactive approach has further endeared her to her fanbase, who appreciate her authenticity and engagement.
“Phat Butt” is set to open her upcoming album Y2K!, which is scheduled for release on July 26. The album will include her previous tracks “Gimmie a Light,” “Think U the Sht (Fart),” and “Pretty Girl” featuring Rema. Her last project, Like..?, released in 2023, featured popular tracks such as “Princess Diana” with Nicki Minaj, “Deli,” and “In Ha Mood.”
As Ice Spice prepares to hit the road for her Y2K! WORLD TOUR, fans are eagerly anticipating the chance to see her perform live. With her bold style, confident lyrics, and dynamic stage presence, she is sure to deliver an unforgettable experience.
