Ice Spice Faces Rocky Start to 2025: Low Album Sales and Festival Controversy

Hip Hop Podcast Spate Radio

Ice Spice ended 2024 with the release of the deluxe version of her July album, Y2K!: I'm Just A Girl, but it seems the timing may have worked against her. Reports indicate the project sold just 4,800 units in its first week, a surprisingly low figure even in an industry now dominated by streaming. While some fans have mocked the numbers or speculated about a decline in her momentum, there are a few factors that might explain the performance.For one, the reported sales could primarily reflect the handful of new tracks included in the deluxe edition, as many of the singles were released earlier. Additionally, dropping the project on Christmas Day likely impacted its commercial success, as the holiday season typically isn’t ideal for new music releases. Without a detailed breakdown of the numbers, it’s hard to draw concrete conclusions. For instance, whether the total includes tracks like "Hannah Montana," featuring NLE Choppa and DaBaby, remains unclear.
