Soulja Boy recently revealed in an interview on The Bootleg Kev Podcast that he was in talks with Ice Spice before she blew up. He also shared that he enjoyed seeing the “Munch (Feelin’ U)” rapper's career take off. Soulja later went on to discuss a possible collaboration with Ice Spice.

Soulja Boy said, “I like Ice Spice, I ain’t gonna cap.” "They gonna be like, ‘He picked a girl,’ but yeah, she new, she popping, I like what she doing. On gang, I found out about her before she got popping off," he added. He then revealed, “I was talking to her and her shit just took off. I like seeing shit like that, like a muthafucka just be under the radar and then just take off. I like seeing shit like that.” When Bootleg Kev asked whether he would consider working alongside Ice Spice, he responded, “Hell yeah!" Revealing that, "We already talked. I be talking to her. Shout out to Ice Spice, she cool. I like what she doing, for sure.”

Soulja Boy Wants To Collab With Ice Spice

In her April cover story for Paper, Ice Spice revealed that her father, a fellow rapper, played a big role in her career. “He definitely inspired me to want to record,” she said. “I remember being in the studio with him. I was a toddler, probably. And I remember little flashes. Of course, not every detail, but small things like that being shown to you at such a young age make an impression on you.” She went on, saying, “Subconsciously, I ended up becoming an artist because I saw my father be one first. He’s a music lover himself. He’s a true Hip Hop head, beyond me, honestly. He knows everything. He’s always educating me on Hip Hop and shit like that.”

Earlier today, it was alleged that a fan who slid into Ice Spice's DMs got cooked by the "Princess Diana" rapper. She shot the thirsty fan down quickly, simply responding with, "small ass dreads and no Nike tech.” Last week, Ice Spice was also seen in the streets of New York shooting a new music video.
