Someone random person on the internet sparked up the conversation, and from there, many people chimed in. The idea of Colorism in music came up in the online discussion. The artist Flo Milli came up as the comparison to Ice Spice, as some believe that Flo Milli should be where Ice Spice is, but because of colorism, she isn’t. Do you think this is a golden example of colorism, something else, or a mix of all of the above? Do you think Ice Spice is only popping because of the work of Colorism only? RECORDED May 21st, 2023.
