Ice Spice performed at Fanatics Super Bowl Bash, and it drew commentary from Michael Blackson, who took to social media to share his unenthused take on the Bronx rapper's performance.
During Michael Rubin's star-studded Fanatics Super Bowl celebration, Ice Spice's stage presence caught attention, but not all were impressed, including comedian Michael Blackson.
Via Instagram, Blackson expressed his disinterest with a touch of humor:
"Inform the icy Spice Girl to cease her serenade; I possess a dashiki more aged than her existence," alongside a clip showcasing Spice's performance, punctuated by his own bewildered look.
The internet's response mirrored this sentiment, with critiques ranging from dismissive comparisons to a "stripper with a microphone" to blunt assessments of her music necessitating visual distractions to compensate for quality.
"So she’s a stripper with a microphone. Got it," one person said.
"Imagine your music being so trash you have to show your nakedness so we can forget that your music is trash ?️," another joined in.
The lineup boasted other acts like Travis Scott and Quavo, setting the scene for an eventful night leading up to Super Bowl LVIII, where the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers were slated for a showdown.
The unveiling of Starry's Super Bowl commercial featuring Ice Spice marked a memorable moment, presenting her amidst animated mascots until an "ex-boyfriend" appears, only to be rebuffed and meet a comically exaggerated demise.
Ice Spice's venture into the world of food and beverage endorsements isn't new.
Prior to her Super Bowl commercial fame, she graced Dunkin' ads and collaborated with Ben Affleck for a signature drink promotion, showcasing a playful dynamic in their commercial that aired during the VMAs, with Affleck dialing up his Boston accent against Spice's composed demeanor.
This series of partnerships underscores her growing influence beyond music, cementing her status in both entertainment and marketing spheres.
Guess that azz shakin' is good for something?
