4 time Grammy nominated and self proclaimed ‘Princess Of New York’ Ice Spice is back with a new song and making waves with it. Marking the singers first time speaking Spanish on a track she has teamed up with fellow Spanish artist Tokishcha for ‘Thootie’.
The video was shot in the Dominican Republic, authentically capturing the colorful, vibrant, upbeat energy and culture of the island.
When asked about the track Ice stated,”This was a fun record for me. It’s the first-time people are actually hearing me speak or rap in Spanish and it was fun to show another side of who I am, and it’s even more special that I got to do it with Toki. We went to the Dominican Republic to shoot the video last month and it was a vibe. I definitely felt at home.”
“I’m so happy we finally got to make a song. It’s been a while since we’ve wanted to. When she sent me ‘Thootie’ it was instant. I gotta give it to the producers, they did a great job with the beat, not everyone who didn’t grow up in the DR can make a dembow hot like that. I loved working with Ice, she’s a sweetheart and a genuinely fun girl. I’m so proud of the video, and her coming to the DR after so long was very special to honor and respect the ‘bajo mundo culture’” says Tokischa.
