Ice Spice Unveils Star-Studded “Y2K!” Album Tracklist – Fans React with Mixed Emotions
Ice Spice has finally dropped the tracklist for her much-anticipated debut studio album, Y2K! The album boasts star-studded collaborations with heavyweights like Travis Scott, Gunna, and her rumored beau, Central Cee. Fans have already gotten a taste of the album with singles like “Phat Butt,” “Did it First,” and the cheekily titled “Think U The Sh*t (Fart).”
However, the tracklist reveal on Instagram sparked a wave of mixed reactions from fans. While some are hyped about the collaborations, others are disappointed with how many songs have already been released. “10 songs??? Gorl you done put out half the album already boo,” one user commented. Another fan expressed frustration, saying, “Tf is this? Girl u had 1 chance to show everyone you actually got some talent and this is what u do. Most of your album is already out and sounds exactly the same.”
Ice Spice has been hyping up Y2K! for months, currently thrilling fans on the Y2K! World Tour alongside Cash Cobain, with performances scheduled across North America until the end of August. The album officially drops on Friday, July 26th.
But that’s not all – Ice Spice is also set to make her big-screen debut with Denzel Washington in Spike Lee’s remake of Akira Kurosawa’s High & Low. Keep an eye on Honk Magazine for all the latest updates on Ice Spice and her upcoming projects!

François Marius pushes lips to feet on the dance-ready on latest release “What You Gonna Do (Radio Edit)”
François Marius‘ latest release, “What You Gonna Do (Radio Edit),” asks a heartfelt question, the difference between saying you love someone and showing it. The song is built on a catchy dance beat and guitars with an energetic feel and emotional message about trust, commitment and openness that comes with giving someone your heart.
The song questions the uncertainty of loving someone and if they’ll stick around when the going gets tough. The song straddles the line of intimacy and fear of a broken heart. It’s relatable because it’s not about saying love, it’s about showing love. François Marius’ “Radio Edit” is a relationship-centered offering, providing sincerity in an upbeat musical setting. The guitars are textured and the dance beat keeps the song interesting.
“What You Gonna Do” challenges listeners to look past statements and consider what real commitment looks like in action. This is a song for people who believe that love should be heard not just in the words of a person but in the actions they are willing to take.

Metaphoric Mind unveils dark intensity and catchy rhythms on latest release “Jaws”
Metaphoric Mind delivers a hard-hitting, energetic sound on “Jaws” built on dark themes, razor-sharp guitars and a driving instrumental base. I love how the song opens up with a strong attack, fast synths and drums and the lead guitar gives a compelling edge to the momentum of the song. The result is a powerful record with a darker mood, but also rhythmic pull that gives the track an energy that is both urgent and captivating.
The lyrics of the song go back to the idea of trying again and making things right, reinforcing the determined mood. That sentiment is echoed throughout, a persistence thread beneath the dark tone of “Jaws,” a willingness to confront the mistake rather than leave it unresolved.
The dark feel gives the song a unique character and the syncopation between the drums and lead guitar make the song accessible and engaging. “Jaws” is an intense listen and a striking addition to Metaphoric Mind’s sound for fans of music that mixes weight and urgency with memorable instrumental interplay.
