In 2002, Sean Paul released "Gimme the Light," which quickly became one of the most popular songs nationwide, particularly in the Bronx. At the time, Ice Spice, now a leading figure in New York's rap scene, was just two years old. Her latest single, "Gimme a Light," reinterprets the original track, capturing the spirit of the borough where she was born.
"Off the liquor, we be gettin' nasty/Ghetto, fabulous and fancy/She gettin' loud but nobody moved (Word)/Talk of the town, I'm makin' the news," Ice Spice raps on the track. "Pretty-ass face and some pretty-ass boobs/Pretty-ass bitch, I be shakin' the room/Stank-ass bitch tryna grill me/She actin' lost, but of course she in tune."
In the newly-released "Gimme a Light" music video, Ice Spice cruises through New York, twerking in the backseat of a hot pink Range Rover with a crew of bikers trailing behind. Clouds of smoke from her blunt fill the air and pour from the windows, even as she navigates through a crowded party later in the clip. Ice Spice directed the visual alongside Frederick Buford and George Buford.
