Ice Spice Shuts Down Kai Cenat’s Cheeky Move on Livestream – Fans Go Wild!

Ice Spice

On Thursday night, rising rap star Ice Spice took to a livestream with popular content creator Kai Cenat to promote her debut album, Y2K. Known for his influential platform where new artists often showcase their music, Cenat has streamed with Ice Spice before, but this session quickly went viral for an unexpected reason.

During the stream, Cenat attempted to smack Ice Spice’s butt, only to be caught red-handed. His awkward and stumbling explanation didn’t help his case, prompting a flurry of online jokes. One X user quipped that Ice Spice had “eyes in the back of her head,” while others questioned his motives. Ice Spice, embodying her New York City roots, responded with biting sarcasm, dismissing his feeble excuse.

This stream marked the end of Ice Spice’s promotional tour for Y2K, which dropped at midnight on Friday. The week had been a whirlwind for the rapper, featuring a cover story in Rolling Stone where she opened up about her relationships with Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift, handling negativity, and her so-called “feud” with Latto. In contrast to the high-stakes media, Cenat’s livestream offered a more relaxed environment, as seen in his past streams with celebrities like Kevin Hart and Druski. Ice Spice and Cenat, both hailing from The Bronx, have often bonded over their shared roots.

Y2K has generated significant buzz among fans, with Ice Spice being dubbed “Hip-Hop’s New Princess” by The New York Times in early 2023. She’s collaborated with major names like Taylor Swift, featuring on a remix of Swift’s track “Karma.” However, there’s skepticism about her ability to sustain interest over a full album. Her previous EP, Like..?, received mixed reviews, and the early reception of Y2K is similarly polarized. Despite releasing nearly half the album as singles, none have achieved the viral success of her previous collaborations with PinkPantheress and Nicki Minaj.

As the internet buzzes with reactions to her stream with Cenat, Ice Spice hopes this publicity will give her album the boost it needs.

Peter Wilson breathes melody into Utah Phillips’ legacy with haunting new single “Old Man”

Peter Wilson

“Old Man,” Peter Wilson’s newest song, is a raw intergenerational dialogue steeped in empathy and aching humanity. Written in collaboration with the now-deceased Utah Phillips, a legendary folk musician known as the “Golden Voice of the Great Southwest,” this song presents a moving narration through the eyes of someone society too often neglects.

With lyrics by Phillips and music by Wilson, “Old Man” unites two poets in time. The effect is a gorgeously stripped-down folk ballad that comes across less like a performance than a moment of authentic listening, like a man on a park bench finally telling you the truth about his life, and you can’t help but lean in. Wilson’s acoustic music is spare and stark, letting the story do the heavy lifting. Every chord sounds intentional, as if he’s allowing room for the words to breathe, not speeding them up, just allowing them to speak. His tone is steady and gentle, almost reverent, echoing and channeling the spirit of Phillips’ storytelling. Every note carries the respect you can hear.

However, what makes “Old Man” land so much harder is its unvarnished honesty. There’s no fancy version of homelessness here. No over-dramatization or overproduction. Just quiet, contemplative music that puts you in someone else’s frayed shoes. It’s the kind of song rarely written, inviting you to rest momentarily contemplate. The track feels timeless, rooted in classic folk, and has fresh emotional resonance. It resonates with today’s audience as incisively as it may have decades ago, reminding us that tales like this still play out on every street corner daily.

By combining Utah Phillips’ words with his musical setting, Peter Wilson has created more than a song. He’s made a vessel for compassion, memory, and our oneness as humans. “Old Man” has no interest in working for your attention. It quietly earns it.
