Ice Spice recalls 'hysterically crying' after Taylor Swift asked her to appear on Karma remix

Ice Spice has recalled "hysterically crying" after Taylor Swift asked her to appear on the remix of Karma.

The rapper has recalled her reaction to when the Love Story hitmaker invited her to appear on the remix of her 2022 song Karma, which was released in May 2023.

"I was living in my first apartment in Jersey, and (producer) Riot was there recording me," Ice recalled of the moment during a new interview with Rolling Stone. "And I remember my manager called me, and he usually texts, but he called, and he's like, 'You ready for this one?' And I'm thinking it's going to be some bad news or something."

She continued, "He's like, 'Taylor Swift has a record for you to get on from her album.' I'm playing it cool on the phone. I'm like, 'Oh, that's cool. Super cool.' And then I hang up the phone and I'm hysterically crying."

The 24-year-old revealed that she was in her walk-in closet when she received the call.

"I'm in my walk-in closet, and I'm like, 'Bro, this is not real life,'" the Barbie World rapper recalled. "Riot definitely filmed it. That'll probably be in a documentary one day."

In the interview, Taylor - who Ice calls her "closest celebrity friend" - gushed about the rapper's work ethic.

"I love when I meet a new artist who takes a keen interest in not just the music, but the music industry and how it works," Taylor told the publication. "I've seen how our industry tries to convince artists that they're better off just being creative and making music and letting the labels and the management do the rest."

"Seeing Ice lean into the strategic, financial, and business aspects of her career is really exciting for me," the Cruel Summer hitmaker continued. "The more artists learn about the inner workings of the music industry, the more power they can have in their creative world."
