AceShowbiz - Taylor Swift has finally released her collaborative single with Ice Spice. On Friday, May 26, the Grammy winner unleashed "Karma" remix ft. the "Princess Diana" raptress as a part of the "Midnights (Til Dawn Edition)".
On the new tune, Ice Spice adds in her verse, "Karma is your chеck's 'boutta bounce (Damn)/ Karma is the fire in your house (Grrah)." She goes on, "And she 'boutta pop up unannounced (Like)/ And she never leavin' you alone (Damn)."
Rumors of Taylor and Ice Spice's collaboration emerged in early May. At that time, music executive Shawn Barron, who serves as president of EZMNY Records, said in an interview, "I heard that she's on Taylor Swift's next single or something like that."
It was not until recently that Taylor confirmed the speculation. Sharing the cover art of the track on Instagram, the 33-year-old declared, "Um. SO much to tell you. I'm a massive fan of this brilliant artist and after getting to know her I can confirm: she is THE ONE to watch."
"So delighted to say that Karma Featuring the incredible @icespice will be out TOMORROW night at MIDNIGHT ET as a part of the new Midnights (Til Dawn Edition) deluxe album that you can pre-order now at store.taylorswift.com!" the "Red" artist further noted, adding that the project also includes a new, extended take on "Snow on the Beach" ft. Lana Del Rey.
While some fans were excited to listen to the new joint single, others were not impressed considering Matty Healy's past comments about Ice Spice. Matty, who has been rumored to be dating Taylor, previously sparked backlash for laughing at jokes that "The Adam Friedland Show" hosts Adam and Nick Mullen made about Ice Spice's ethnicity. He, however, has apologized for the remarks.
