The Deluxe edition of "Like..?" follows on the heels of back-to-back smash collaborations with rap trailblazer Nicki Minaj, including Barbie World (with Aqua) [From Barbie The Album] and Princess Diana (with Nicki Minaj), which became the biggest female hip-hop debut of 2023. Ice recently appeared on a remix of Taylor Swift's iconic song "Karma" and played live with the legend at New Jersey's MetLife Stadium. This success should come as no surprise, considering "Like..?" has 879M+ cumulative global EP streams and was packed with viral singles like Munch (Feelin U), which gained universal acclaim and places on multiple "Best Song of the Year" lists from publications like The New York Times, Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, Billboard, NPR and The Washington Post among others. These achievements landed Ice on the covers of Billboard's 40 Under 40 Issue, Teen Vogue, and Paper Magazine.
