Ice Spice Spills the Tea on Drake Friendship and Toronto Fly-Out, “Like, Gag”

Ice Spice

Ice Spice has quickly become a favorite in the music industry, rubbing elbows with the likes of Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift. One standout moment in her rise to fame was meeting Drake, though she admits they never got too close. In a recent Rolling Stone interview, the “Deli” rapper reminisced about Drake flying her out to Toronto for OVO Fest.

“We was on the jet like, ‘Wait, Drake’s flying us out? Like, gag,” she shared. “When we saw him, I was like, ‘Nah, this is cr*zy.’ He’s just casually there. There’s mad random people around, and he’s just, like, blending in somehow.”

Despite not being besties, Ice Spice hopes for a future collaboration with Drake. “We talk, but we never really was on some bestie sh*t,” she said, adding that Drake is excited about her upcoming album, Y2K!. She also weighed in on his feud with Kendrick Lamar, appreciating the rap battle as a fan of the sport.

Their friendship had a rocky moment in 2022 when Drake seemingly dissed her on “BackOutsideBoyz” with Lil Yachty. However, Ice Spice confirmed they patched things up and are “cool” now.

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.
