Ice Spice and Taylor Swift might be tight after collaborating on “Karma,” but the rapper won’t be calling up the Reputation artist just to shoot the breeze.
Ice and Latto appeared on Kai Cenat’s stream on Thursday (Sept. 4) after dropping their surprise collaboration “Gyatt,” ending speculation that the two rappers were feuding.
On the stream, Ice and Latto talked college, pizza, and whether they’d charge Cenat if he asked them to feature on a hypothetical album.
Around an hour and seven minutes into the stream, seen above, Cenat brought up another Ice collaborator, the recently engaged Swift.
The streamer asked if Ice could jump on FaceTime with the pop icon.
She seemed to consider for a moment before deciding, “No, ‘cause if she don’t answer, I’mma lose aura.”
Cenat doubled down, insisting that sometimes it’s good to “test aura.”
“You peer pressuring me into calling my best contact,” Ice said as Cenat enthusiastically suggested doing “prank calls.”
Latto asked what Ice would say if she were to call Swift out of the blue.
“I don’t know, just say hi,” Cenat suggested. “You might as well just do it … they want you to,” he added, referencing the chat messages egging Ice on.
Latto took Ice’s side, noting it was late in the day for a random phone call.
“Don’t bother that lady,” the “Big Energy” rapper said. “That’s a engaged woman.”
Cenat still wouldn’t give up, saying, “What if you call her to say ‘congratulations’? Come on. Think about it. If it go through, your aura will go through the roof. Your aura don’t mess up.”
But whether to protect her aura or to avoid alienating her most famous friend, Ice didn’t budge.
After featuring on Swift’s Midnights, Ice shared the advice she received from the 14-time Grammy winner, who she also called "the funniest person ever."
“When I was in the studio with Taylor, like, I’ll never forget,” Ice told Billboard. “She told me, ‘No matter what, just keep making music and everything’s going to be fine.’”
