Ice Spice’s Brother Claims Opponents Taunt Him With Rapper’s Lyrics During Football Games

by

Joey Gaston, the younger brother of Ice Spice, has revealed to Complex that opposing players and fans often taunt him with his sister’s lyrics during football games. “Defensive ends, they sack me, and they like, ‘You thought I was feeling you?’ I was playing in the semifinals of the playoffs. Second half we’re getting ready to go on the field. I hear the student section like, ‘all right, he’s coming, he’s coming.’ They start clapping and saying ‘we love Ice Spice’ clap clap ‘we love Ice Spice. Next drive, I threw a touchdown and I went to the sidelines and I started clapping,” Gaston told the outlet.

Gaston plays for Iona Prep High School in New Rochelle, NY. A dual-threat QB, Gaston is considered one of the top players in the state but does not appear on ESPN‘s Top 300 recruiting list for his class (2025). HotNewHipHop was unable to find any evidence that Gaston has received any scholarship offers at this time. However, he has reportedly garnered interest from USC.

Is Ice Spice Poised To Take Over The Rap Game In 2024?

Meanwhile, Ice Spice appears to be ramping up towards a huge 2024. On Christmas Eve 2023, the rapper’s flag (a modified American flag in pink with an image of Spice) was spotted flying over the headquarters of Capitol Records. While the meaning of the flag was unclear, fans hoped it meant that Spice would be dropping her full-length debut in 2024. This comes after hints from her long-time producer, RIOTUSA, that the album might be coming this year.

Of course, a massive 2024 would be the logistical next step for Spice, who enjoyed a major breakout year in 2023. This included getting her own drink at Dunkin Donuts. The first ad for the Ice Spice Munchkins Drink dropped during the VMAs on September 12. In something of a meta advertisement, Spice and certified Boston Boy Ben Affleck try to come up with names for her signature drink. It’s a fun little spot with Affleck turning his Southie accent up to 11. Furthermore, an unimpressed Spice serves as his straight woman.

Ice Spice isn’t the only talent in her family. Her brother, Joey Gaston, is one of the most-watched high school football players in the state of New York. Gaston is a running back at Iona Prep, and is set to graduate in 2025. Over the course of the past two years, both Ice and Gaston have risen to fame in tandem.

In an interview with Complex Sports, Gaston revealed that since his connection with Ice was uncovered by fans, opponents from rivaling schools will often use his sister’s lyrics to troll him while he’s playing.

“Defensive ends, they sack me, and they like, ‘You thought I was feeling you?’,” said Gaston, in reference to Ice’s hit single, “Munch.” Gaston seems to be a good sport about it though. Elsewhere in the interview, he shared that fans often join in on the fun.

“I was playing in the semifinals of the playoffs, second half we’re getting ready to go on the field,” Gaston says. “I hear the student section like, ‘all right, he’s coming, he’s coming.’ They start clapping and saying ‘we love Ice Spice’ *clap clap* ‘we love Ice Spice. Next drive, I threw a touchdown and I went to the sidelines and I started clapping.”

Ice Spice is killing the rap game right now. With three Billboard Hot 100 top 10s to her credit, as well as a partnership with Dunkin’ under her belt, Ice, whose real name is Isis Gaston, is quickly becoming a household name. But she’s not the only talented person in her family. While Ice is becoming a mainstay in music, her younger brother is also showing his talent in the realm of sports.

Who is Ice Spice’s little brother?

Ice’s younger brother, Joey Gaston, was discovered by Ice’s fan base at a high school quarterback at Iona Prep in New York, according to Yahoo.

Further research showed that Joey runs a 4.5 on the field and a 40-yard dash, as shown on OvertimeHeroics.

NCSA Sports, a platform which allows high school athletes to share their stats and career goals, shows that Joey is 16 years old, and will graduate from Iona Prep in 2025.

“I’m confident that 4 years at this level of competition will prepare me for the collegiate stage,” he wrote in a letter on the platform. “I’m fearless, I’m competitive, I lead by example, and I will never let anyone outwork me. I was molded into this type of athlete because I have been overlooked and doubted all my life. I’m not as big as the other QBs, so I have had to prove people wrong at every level of my sports career. I have had to work twice as hard for the opportunity to show them that I give the team the best chance to win. Football keeps me motivated to be the best student I can be, the best teammate I can be, and the best person I can be. My goal is to graduate high school with honors and attend a college that will not only help me compete at the highest level but also help me become successful in life after football.”
