Ice Spice & Cleotrapa’s Beef, Explained: Here’s How Their Friendship Turned Sour On Social Media
In the short time Ice Spice has been in the spotlight, her career has seen huge successes thanks to hits like “Munch” and “Barbie World” and plenty of friction thanks to supposed beef with Cardi B and Latto. While she’s resolved both of those, it looks like there’s a new one on the burner — and this time, it’s with one of her Y2K Tour tourmates.
Cleotrapa is a New York-based artist who has seen moderate success over the past year with her songs “Rockstar” and “Von Dutch.” Apparently, she was well-enough acquainted with Ice Spice for the “Think U The Sh*t” rapper to add Cleo to her tour. However, it seems their relationship soured while on the road, as Cleo posted a video to her social channels disparaging Ice Spice as a “fake friend” who only brought her along to do damage control after allegedly falling out with Nicki Minaj.
In the video, Cleo says she wasn’t given enough time to prepare for the tour, wasn’t paid for her performances, and had to pay for her own room and board after being assured by Ice that she would be taken care of.

Ice responded during a chat with fans on Twitter Spaces, saying, “The scary part of fame honestly is the moment that somebody feels like they can no longer use your platform or like they’re not getting exactly what they want out of a situation the way that they want it … That’s when they decide to crash out every single time. I’m noticing a pattern.”

So, in summary, the two friends appear to have fallen out because either A) Ice Spice mistreated Cleo on the tour, or B) Cleo had big expectations, that weren’t met. Either way, they seem to be more interested in hashing it out in public than in private, so don’t be surprised if we see this thing escalate.
Cardi B Promises Her Sophomore Album Is Finally Coming In Latest Update
Cardi B says that she’s going to “stop playing” and finally release her long-awaited sophomore album.

She shared a post noting that she’s moved over 500,000 total equivalent album units in 2024 despite not dropping a project since 2018. “Album still sellin like good quality p*ssy,” she responded. “OKAY OKAY let me stop playing and drop this second album.”
In response to the post, fans joked about how long they’ve had to wait to hear a new full-length project from Cardi. “That announcement better be this month girl or I’m starting a rumour about whipshots giving me monkey pox,” one user wrote. Another added: “Album going strong and we’re here for it! But hey, don’t tease us drop that second album already! We’re ready for more hits!”

Cardi has been promising to drop her sophomore album in 2024 at several points throughout the year. Back in April, she reflected on the six-year anniversary of her debut project and admitted she’s nervous to follow up on the critically acclaimed effort. “6 years ago I released my first album and it broke so many records GAH LEE!! 6 years later I’m preparing to drop the next one this year.. it’s so different from what everyone is expecting and I’m sooo excited. Love you guys and thank you for the support! I’ll talk to ya soon I been so busy these last few days.” In another post, she added: “Yeup!!! I’m a little nervous. But I don’t care! I’m liking doing things that my ears want to listen to and reflecting the moods I been in. It feels good.”
Cardi B Teases Her Second Album
It still remains unclear when exactly Cardi will be dropping the next project. She recently shared a video of herself in the studio, although she didn’t seem too excited to be there.

Playboi Carti Gives Hopeful Progress Update On His Eagerly Awaited “I Am Music” Album
Saying that Playboi Carti fans are ready for I Am Music would be a massive understatement. The influential Atlanta, Georgia MC has been teasing his third studio album for quite a while, with a lot of it happening at the beginning of this year. The 28-year-old put out several tracks on his YouTube and Instagram accounts such as “EVILJ0RDAN”, “BACKR00MS”, “Ketamine”, “2024”, and more. Despite a lack of new singles or any news for that matter, Carti has been keeping busy in the features department.
He’s worked with the likes of Metro Boomin and Future, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign, Camila Cabello, Drake and more. A few of his contributions have led to some high charting success, so at least he’s active and staying relevant. However, we would be lying if we said that this was enough. Thankfully, we are finally getting some more news surrounding I Am Music and it’s good. Billboard released a revealing feature on the mysterious rager that was conducted right before Lyrical Lemonade’s Summer Smash in June.

Playboi Carti Is A “Meticulous” Creator
View this post on Instagram
In the article, he reveals that the album is still in the works and is still slated for a 2024 release. Throughout the piece, Carti is described as “meticulous”. The “Magnolia” hitmaker was frustrated with the creative losses during the recording of Whole Lotta Red thanks to leaks. It’s maybe why he’s taking an even more precautious approach to I Am Music, making sure that the art remains hidden, for the most part. Carti’s manager and Opium CEO, Erin Larsen, perhaps described it best when it comes to how he views his craft. “He’s giving people his absolute best, things that he wants to put his stamp on. It delays the process. You don’t want to see the Mona Lisa in an art museum before it is a finished piece of work”. While this might anger some, we are even more excited to hear what’s in store for us.
What are your thoughts on Playboi Carti saying that I Am Music is going to be releasing this year? Do you think everything will go according to plan, why or why not? Does this feature with Billboard reveal a lot to you about who Carti is? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Playboi Carti. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Earlier this summer, Cardi B filed for divorce from her husband Offset. According to TMZ, the pending divorce is not associated with anyone cheating and “is a long time in coming.”
Additional notes reveal Cardi and Offset have been growing apart and are “just disconnected from each other.”
An insider close to TMZ highlights a December social media post reading, “You know when you just out grow relationships … I’m tired of protecting peoples feelings … I GOTTA PUT MYSELF FIRST!”
After a year of attempting to stay together, the two have agreed to the “amicable” split with Cardi requesting primary custody of their children.
Earlier this week, Cardi B saw parts of the Internet as praying about the downfall of her marriage, but she isn’t having it. Cardi responded to a Page Six article stating she was “fighting to make payments” on her Georgia mansion to dodge foreclosure.
“LMAOOO You bum bitches wish,” Cardi wrote online. “Me and Offset bought that house in 2019 for 5 million now it’s worth 7.
“Check the Atlanta market. And no, we not selling it… and if I ever sold it I would just sell my part to Offset since he loves Atlanta. Throwing salt on my home? Hating bad.”

Ice Spice Highlights Workout Routine: ‘We Beatin Them Allegations’
Ice Spice is noticeably slimmer than when we were first introduced to the star. Social media users wondered was it a result of Ozempic. Spie wants you to know that she is hard at work in the gym.
Hitting Instagram, Ice Spice dropped off a workout video. Captioning it, “We beatin them allegations bae.” You can see the post below.
Previously, Ice Spice went in on rumors suggesting she might be using the diabetes drug Ozempic, which has gained popularity as a weight-loss tool.
In her defense, why does it have to be the Big-O just because you look different? Actors scale down AND up in weight all the time in a short period for roles; why can’t others make body changes, especially with all the resources they have?
Anyway, during an X Spaces session on August 19, she expressed frustration with these rumors, emphasizing that her weight loss is due to her active lifestyle, including her current Y2K! World Tour, healthy eating, and regular gym visits. She dismissed the idea of using Ozempic, questioning, “What even is Ozempic? What the f*ck is that?”
Get this: Ice Spice also mentioned that her busy schedule, which includes touring and preparing for future music projects, has contributed to her physical changes.
On the business front, she recently launched her Y2K! World Tour and released her Y2K! album. Moreover, she hinted that she’s already eager to start working on her next album, though she noted she doesn’t want to start teasing it just yet.
Good for her, across the board.
