Ice Spice returns with Big Guy, her latest drop from The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants, and she does it without switching up the formula that made her a star. Even with the cartoon tie in, Ice stays true to herself. She keeps the flirt filled lines, the laid back confidence, and the smooth drill influenced flow that put her on top.
Fans were expecting a club banger after months of teasers, but Big Guy takes things in a fun new direction. The production is bright and bouncy, giving a small nod to SpongeBob’s world while still sounding like something only Ice would rap over. It never feels childish. It just feels playful.
The song is quick, catchy, and loaded with the kind of quotable lines that get stuck in your head and land on social media instantly. Short story, Ice Spice didn’t bend to the movie. She made it fit her.
