Ice Spice Fires Back, “Latto’s Feud is Just a Dragged-Out Joke”

Ice Spice

In a candid interview with Rolling Stone ahead of her highly anticipated debut album Y2K, Ice Spice opened up about her rapid rise in the rap industry, her budding friendship with Taylor Swift, and her ongoing feud with Latto. Despite both artists’ flourishing careers, the tension between them remains a hot topic among fans.

The drama reportedly started when Ice Spice’s single “Think U The Sh*t” was rumored to take shots at Latto. Ice Spice confirmed the speculation, calling out a “weak-ass snippet” Latto shared on TikTok, which featured footage from an Ice Spice music video. Latto’s response? Filming her next music video in Ice Spice’s hometown, The Bronx. The back-and-forth has continued ever since, with each artist throwing subtle digs at the other.

“I can understand a friendly competition, but I feel like at this point it’s a joke that she’s just dragged out, and it’s not even funny,” Ice Spice told Rolling Stone, directly addressing the feud. Meanwhile, Latto has downplayed the conflict, asserting they operate in different lanes and expressing no interest in furthering the drama.

Despite their differences, both rappers are enjoying significant success. Latto’s feature on Jung Kook’s track “Seven” recently went platinum and topped the Billboard Hot 100. Ice Spice has had major hits with Nicki Minaj, including “Princess Diana” and “Barbie World,” and her viral collaboration “Boy’s A Liar, Pt. 2” with PinkPantheress. She also came close to a #1 single with Taylor Swift on the “Karma” remix.

With her debut album Y2K dropping on July 26, all eyes are on Ice Spice to see what she does next in both her career and this ongoing saga with Latto.

DatYunginG5 breathes fire and feeling into “Suffocate”

H

In DatYunginG5’s new single “Suffocate,” he moves beyond the desperation to reveal the chilling cycle of love that won’t release its grip. All over a darkened blend of moody pop and synthy flashbacks, “Suffocate” reads like a rough draft at 2 a.m., too honest to stow away, too raw to ignore. Crafted with razor-sharp precision by Austin Weller, the song fuses spacey production with cutting lyricism. The beat shimmers like a dream but strikes like a memory you’ve tried to bury.

There’s a quiet tension between the down-beat melodies and low-key rap flow, reflecting the emotional tussle that underlines the song. “Suffocate” is a song about the love we can’t shake once it’s grown old and stale when a toxic presence keeps seeping into our lives, reopening scars we thought were healed. DatYunginG5 cuts right to that unsettling feeling with surgical emotional precision and pointedly reminds us that sometimes, it’s not the love you miss; it’s the chaos you grew accustomed to. The story he’s telling is every bit as gripping as his delivery. Each line hits hard, awash in regrets and reflection yet remaining defiantly open. He is not merely singing about being wounded he’s allowing you to feel it with him.

If you’re in the midst of your heartbreak or still licking your emotional wounds, then “Suffocate” deserves a place on your playlist. It’s the sound of every message you never sent, every memory you attempted to erase, and every breath you found impossible to take when love started to suffocate you. On “Suffocate,” however, DatYunginG5 makes it clear he cannot be seen as an artist, but a storyteller, and his story cuts clean. This is the most beautifully written emotional unraveling, in which pain sounds almost poetic.
