Dancehall act, Spice is all about ‘female empowerment’ as she readies to recruit Nicki Mina and Rihanna for a mega collabo soon.
Spice made this known while speaking with Charisma Deberry during an Instagram Live interview with Essence Magazine. Deberry is the magazine’s Social Media Director.
She gave a glimpse of who she would like to work with, and as she stated, her list is long.
“So I would like to collab with a lot of females. You know my dream collab is Rihanna, Beyonce, Nicki Minaj, you name it. My list is very tall,” she said. Spice also praised women holding it down in the music industry, across all genres.
“Once upon a time there was only Lil Kim, that was reigning and doing good. But now, I could tell you: I would love to collab with Nicki Minaj, I would love to collab with Cardi B, I would love to collab with Megan Thee Stallion. So I mean the rappers are doing good,” she said.
She added: “That’s what the focus should be, ab out the amount of women that’s doing well in both genres at the moment. Because back in the days, it wasn’t like that. I remember times when it was just me.
A lot of the females that’s out now, they weren’t there. It was just Spice. And once upon a time it was just Lady Saw. So right now the focus should be woman empowerment,” she continued.
Her inspiration behind wanting to do the track is her genuine love of music and her belief that collaboration can help put dancehall further on the world map.
“I’m a fan of music. Even now I want to highlight to people that so many female rappers are doing extremely well and it wasn’t like that in the past. Just like for me, in Dancehall genre as well, there’s so many females that’s out now — whether they want to show me the respect — you know, it wasn’t like that like a couple years ago. So we all have to embrace each other and you know, we have to give dues,” she added.
Such a track would do well to showcase female empowerment, she continued. “A lot of people are tearing down each other but we need to do just like our women who are stepping up to the plate right now and all of us are doing good.”
