According to Ice Spice, she simply called Nicki “ungrateful and delusional” out of frustration.
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 and 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 chose 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.”
