ICE (MA)

The Moroccan rapper ICE has a mythical status within the Dutch hip hop scene and lasts longer than you might have realized. With a feature on Murda's single "Pistola" and a guest appearance in Lange's 101Barz session, the Netherlands was able to get a sneak peak from this superstar in the making. ICE, short for "Iceman", owes its street name to its father, who still sells the tastiest ice cream in Rotterdam and the surrounding area. ICE possesses the persuasiveness of a fanatic market vendor and has the special ability to conquer a place in everyone's heart within thirty minutes with its black humor, controversial stories and engaging personality. With this ICE put himself in the spotlight with Ali B who signed him with his record label TRIFECTA. The rapper says he makes music for "people who recklessly take roundabouts, shie a crazy fine and do it again tomorrow". Hip hop with autobiographical texts, often with a light undertone, always genuine. The official launch of the ICE career took place with debut single Smith & Wesson. Meanwhile, there is a stack of rock-solid tracks ready with which ICE is ready to tilt the entire game. Everything here is barkie.
