In an exclusive reveal, breakout rap sensation Ice Spice names Beyoncé as her ultimate dream collaborator while opening up about her first voice acting role in ‘The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants,’ her favorite comfort foods, and the moment she was truly starstruck meeting Nicki Minaj.
Ice Spice has collaborated with music royalty including Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj, but the Bronx native has revealed there’s one iconic artist still on her collaboration wishlist: Beyoncé.
The 25-year-old rapper made the revelation in Us Weekly‘s latest 25 Things You Don’t Know About Me feature, stating “I’d like to make a song with Beyoncé” and acknowledging that she looked up to the global superstar as a child. This declaration comes as Spice continues her meteoric rise in the music industry, having already worked with some of the biggest names in entertainment.
From Music to Animation: Spice’s Voice Acting Debut
While a Beyoncé collaboration remains in the dream phase, Ice Spice is celebrating another career milestone: her first voice acting role in the animated comedy The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants. The film, currently in theaters, follows the beloved Nickelodeon character on a new adventure.
“Filming The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants was like nothing I’ve ever done before,” Spice shared. “It was my first time voice acting, so I was just excited.” This expansion into animation demonstrates the rapper’s growing influence beyond the music industry and her appeal to broader audiences.
Inside Ice Spice’s Personal Preferences
The exclusive feature provided rare insight into the personal life and preferences of the notoriously private artist. Among the revelations:
- Her current favorite song from her own catalog is “In Ha Mood” because “I’m feeling sexy”
- She’s a self-described “night owl” who stays up late due to her “lifestyle and newfound love for partying”
- Her go-to comfort meal is gluten-free Oreos
- She can’t leave home without her purse, sunglasses, and lip gloss
- Her most valuable possessions are her purse collection
Starstruck Moments and Career Highlights
Despite her own celebrity status, Ice Spice still experiences moments of being starstruck. She identified meeting Nicki Minaj as particularly memorable, stating “Not gonna lie, meeting Nicki was crazy.” This revelation is especially significant given that Spice has since collaborated with Minaj on the hit “Barbie World” for the Barbie movie soundtrack.
Among her career highlights, Spice noted that winning a VMA was “one of the proudest moments of my career.” She also cherished the experience of being brought on stage by Taylor Swift at MetLife Stadium, particularly because “I was able to bring my little sister.”
The Beyoncé Collaboration Potential
Ice Spice’s expressed desire to collaborate with Beyoncé represents more than just a personal dream—it signals her artistic ambitions to work with music’s most influential figures. Beyoncé has historically been selective about collaborations, making this potential partnership particularly significant within the industry.
The rapper’s acknowledgment that she looked up to artists like Beyoncé as a child adds emotional weight to this aspiration, connecting her current success to the inspiration drawn from childhood idols.
Cultural Connections and Nostalgia
Spice’s feature also highlighted her connections to New York City culture and musical nostalgia. She expressed fondness for visiting pizzerias after school in NYC because “that’s where everyone would be, just chilling.” Musically, she identified Alicia Keys songs as particularly nostalgic, noting they “remind me of a simpler time.”
She also mentioned playing PartyNextDoor and Drake’s “Somebody Loves Me” at least twice daily, demonstrating her ongoing engagement with contemporary R&B alongside her rap career.
Looking Forward
As Ice Spice continues to expand her career into new areas like voice acting while maintaining her music momentum, the possibility of a Beyoncé collaboration remains a tantalizing prospect for fans. Her openness about this dream collaboration suggests ongoing ambition to reach new heights in her career.
