Ice Spice Spills the Tea, “Nicki and I Aren’t the Closest” After Leaked Texts Drama
It’s no secret that Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj are a match made in heaven musically, but according to the “Phat Butt” rapper, they’re not exactly the best of friends when they aren’t collaborating. During a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Ice Spice opened up about her and Nicki’s bond. She said that while they’re not on bad terms, they’re not the closest either, despite making multiple hits together.
“We don’t have the closest relationship, you know? But we’re definitely good,” she explained. “We’re mutuals. We had smash records together. I love us together. I think the world does too.” Ice Spice continued, sharing her thoughts on some text messages leaked by an ex-friend of hers, Baby Storme. In the texts, Ice Spice seemingly expressed her frustrations with Nicki, calling her “ungrateful and delusional.”
She appeared to confirm that these were real in her chat with the outlet, though she said this doesn’t change her overall feelings towards Nicki. “I don’t really think she cares about sh*t like that coming from a random girl,” she explained. “But what I said in those texts was just in a moment of frustration around contract negotiations. I could have chosen different words. But at the end of the day, regardless of how I felt in that moment, [Nicki] is still somebody I respect as an artist, and I’m always going to admire everything she’s done for me and the culture.”

Eylsia explores courage, identity and the unknown on latest release “What Will Become of Me”
Eylsia’s latest release, “What Will Become of Me,” is a cool pop starter that is built on catchy piano chords and synths. The song’s real strength lies in its honest questions about identity, courage, and what might lie beneath the surface. It is a dialogue with yourself, asking what happens when you stop looking outside and start looking inside.
Eylsia sings about finding courage within herself, a little light on her own, more than any mirror shows. It’s nice not to know, to feel like all the answers don’t have to be figured out today. The song isn’t seeking an ending or trying to resolve the question it is based on.
“What Will Become of Me” centers on the emotional core of self-discovery. The song has a very personal sense of independence, with lyrics about leaving a frame on the wall and not letting anyone else paint the answers in the sky. But Eylsia delivers a contemplative pop moment, with catchy musical elements and a message that leaves the listener with a question that could linger long after the song ends, and the courage at its heart to face the unknown.

Little Quirks expose perfectly timed romance on “Game Boy”
If every move is timed perfectly, romance can feel believable. Shiny charm comes from Little Quirks’ new single, “Game Boy,” which makes it a little more playful and a little more edgy. This is a rock-pop song for the smooth-talking romantic, the one who has all the moves down pat, from flowers on cue to moments that feel a little too cinematic.
This tension fuels the “Gameboy,” and Little Quirks balances an immediate hook with a darker undercurrent. That restlessness is key to the song’s appeal, and it gives the release a sense of constant movement, making its playful attitude active rather than passive. Beneath that happy surface is a smart doubt about romantic performances that are clearly designed to attract people.
“Game Boy” also clearly indicates an artistic shift for the New South Wales band. The track offers another glimpse into a bolder, darker chapter and a glimpse of their upcoming album, “She’s Wild.” Little Quirks never loses sight of the accessible qualities that make pop and rock so immediate, and it expresses the desirable ease of someone who always seems to know what to say or do.
The result is a release built on distinction, playful but pointed, catchy, energetic, and more questioning. “Game Boy” suggests Little Quirks is crafting a space between upbeat musical energy and downbeat emotional concepts. This new music comes from a band that is in a more confident, restless phase of their creative life.
