She is not Nigerian

[edit]

Her being Nigerian was a Twitter joke likely the product of an Ancestry test that showed she had Nigerian ancestry as many African-Americans do. Her father is a black American who himself was a rapper who used to be around DJ Doowop. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DTHEBOSS (talkcontribs) 18:10, 22 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, if she can't name which specific family member is supposedly "Nigerian" and she can't name a specific tribe then this is likely bullshit. Helioz9 (talk) 02:52, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Likely error

[edit]

'Ice Spice attended State University of New York at Purchase on a full athletic scholarship for volleyball and studied communications.'

SUNY Purchase is a div III school, and div III schools cannot give athletic scholarships of any kind. Amrapp (talk) 16:03, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I attribute that citation to The Source, but it appears you're right. I removed the scholarship mention but I think we can at least say she played volleyball at Purchase.The lorax (talk) 16:45, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please remove her birthday as it is not reliably sourced. 2600:100C:A202:5967:8996:E07C:9224:FC05 (talk) 12:07, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: Sourced in Early life section. AnnaMankad (talk) 12:14, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

None of those sources are reliable. This is the most reliable source I can find for this matter.2600:100C:A202:5967:1957:7022:ABD5:C092 (talk) 01:33, 28 May 2023 (UTC) https://www.dazeddigital.com/music/article/58390/1/ice-spice-dazed-spring-2023-interview?amp=1[reply]

Just to point out specifics, the phrase in the early life section with her birthdate is apparently sourced from the Sportskeeda article. Neither the NYT nor Rolling Stone articles provide her birthdate; they only report where she was born. I'm not sure how reliable Sportskeeda is for this, especially given that other reliable sources conspicuously omit her birthdate when reporting her birth location. --Pinchme123 (talk) 03:40, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done. Sportskeeda is unreliable per Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources, but the interview linked above quotes Ice Spice talking about her own birthday, which seems fairly definitive. Have swapped out the Sportskeeda reference for the Dazed Digital one. -- Euryalus (talk) 10:22, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I think in the label section Dolo Entertainment should be added because all of her songs have "Dolo Entertainment Inc." as the copyright holder and when looking up that company on OpenCorporates it says it is owned by her. 2603:6000:F200:2A81:FCB3:F8DB:589:EE97 (talk) 20:20, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Appearance as musical guest on Saturday Night Live

[edit]

Shouldn't we add the fact that Ice Spice appeared as the musical guest on the October 14, 2023 episode of Saturday Night Live (the premiere of the show's 49th season)? 76.190.213.189 (talk) 05:15, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
