Ice Spice Teases New Collaboration With Dunkin’ Donuts
Ice Spice and Dunkin’ Donuts have something in the works for fans to “Munch” on their way to work.
Over the weekend, the burgeoning rap star tantalized fans with a sugary post on X (formerly known as Twitter) with her tweet reading, “america runs on MUNCHKINS.” The photo displayed a puffy munchkin wearing a diamond necklace Princess chain, illustrating the newly minted collaboration between the two parties. Dunkin’ doubled down on Instagram and shared a post with the same photo, but with a different caption, playing off the name of the “Princess Diana” rapper. “Putting the ice in pumpkin spice,” said the Instagram caption. Both parties further tantalized customers by teasing the date Sept. 13.
This isn’t the first time this year that the doughnut and coffee chain has worked with a musician. In February, Jennifer Lopez made a surprise cameo in husband Ben Affleck’s ad for Dunkin’ that aired during the Super Bowl.
2023 has proven to be a banner year for Ice Spice, as she’s netted four songs in the top 10 of the Hot 100, including collaborations with Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj. Spice’s torrid streak earned her the Billboard R&B / Hip-Hop Rookie of the Year award in August.
“I have put in so much hard work, and it means a lot to be recognized for it and have more than just plaques to show for it,” she told Billboard at the time. “I hope to push the genre forward in whatever ways I can, but I know I’ll have a huge impact on the youngins coming up now.”
Last week, Spice continued to stockpile her wins when she received the inaugural BMI Impact Award at the 2023 R&B/Hip-Hop Awards, where Lil Wayne also won the BMI Icon Award.
