The 24-year-old rapper from the Bronx became a global superstar in less than a year after his song, “Munch (Feelin’ U)” went viral in August 2022. Since then, he has released many other hit songs and collaborated with several famous singers.
With more than 25 million listeners on Spotify every month, he has attracted the attention of many music lovers. And now as the face of the Alexander Wang Spring 2024 collection campaign, she is sure to draw attention from the fashion world.
The S24 collection, named Nocturna, combines fashion and rap and captures the essence of Wang’s strong and powerful alpha female.
For the campaign, Ice Spice showcased ready-to-wear pieces including leather, hotfix denim and the latest in the Dome program.

As native New Yorkers, Ice Spice and Wang are inspired by New York City culture, which helps shape their unique perspective on fashion.
Wang, an American fashion designer known for his striking, urban-inspired designs that he describes as “off-duty models,” moved to New York at age 18 to attend Parsons School of Design. She eventually quit her job in her second year to start her own label and launched with a unisex cashmere knitwear collection.
His designs have been seen on many celebrities from The Weeknd to Travis Scott to Zoe Kravitz and many more.
This exciting partnership is not Ice Spice’s first modeling campaign. The rapper has been asked to represent Ivy Park’s collaboration with Adidas and has been offered a collaboration with Beyonce through Ivy Park. She is also a Skims model for the Kim Kardashian brand, and a brand ambassador for Marc Jacobs.

This week has been in the headlines for the rapper and model.
On Tuesday, Ice Spice shared the news that he had finished recording his highly anticipated debut album, “Y2K” on Instagram.
On Wednesday night, she was honored with the Hitmaker award at Billboard’s Women in Music 2024 event. And then on Thursday, news broke that she was the face of Alexander Wang’s Spring 2024 collection.
Speaking about his album, “Y2K,” which was inspired by his birthday, January 1, 2000, he told Billboard, “I think it’s some of my best work” and “it’s not going to be too long — it’s going to be sweet and to the point.”
The “In Ha Mood” rapper has four top 10 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2023, so of course, he’s looking to add more with his debut album.
“There are a lot of different types of hits,” he said. “But my favorites are the ones that are just, like, culturally significant.”

On the eve of accepting Billboard’s “Hitmaker” award on Wednesday night, Ice Spice opened up to Billboard about the songwriting advice that pop star Taylor Swift once gave her.
“When I was in the studio with Taylor, I’ll never forget it,” he said. “He told me, ‘No matter what, keep making music and everything will be fine.'”
In May 2023, Ice Spice and Swift joined together for the remix of “Karma”. And Ice Spice was a special guest at Swift’s three shows at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, where they debuted a music video they made together.
Past “Hitmaker” award winners include Charli XCX and Dolly Parton, who Ice Spice shouted out when asked who her favorite “hitmaker” of all time was. Swift, of course, made the list, as well as Lana Del Rey, Nicki Minaj and Rihanna.
Congratulations to Ice Spice on receiving the “hitmaker” award and your new partnership with Alexander Wang!
