Who is Ice Spice?
Ice Spice is a rising American rapper from the Bronx, New York City. Born to a Dominican mother and African-American father who divorced when she was two. She grew up with her grandparents and cousins due to her parents’ busy work schedules.
Ice Spice attended Sacred Heart High School in Yonkers and was drawn to hip hop at the age of seven, inspired by rappers like Lil’ Kim and Nicki Minaj. She began writing poetry and freestyle raps in elementary school, typing out lyrics on her iPhone and rapping out loud to hip-hop instrumentals.
She played back row on her college volleyball team while studying communications at the State University of New York at Purchase. However, she dropped out in her sophomore year due to feeling out of place and the strenuous commute. She worked as a cashier at Wendy’s and The Gap to support herself and considered herself the protector of her five younger siblings.

According to an interview with Elle magazine, Ice Spice chose her stage name because it rhymed and because she loves spicy food and puts hot sauce on everything. So, the combination of “ice” and “spice” seemed fitting for her as a rapper.
