Things are getting extra messy between Ice Spice and her former tourmate CleoTrapa. Currently, Ice Spice is doing her thing on the Y2K tour, but the drama behind the scenes is spilling all over social media. Both of them took to their pages to throw some serious shade, accusing each other of some shady behavior.
It all popped off when CleoTrapa hit TikTok with her side of the story, breaking down her time on tour with Ice Spice. She didn’t hold back, calling the Bronx-bred star “calculated” and claiming the only reason she was even on the tour was to help clean up Ice Spice’s image after those texts talking wild about Nicki Minaj leaked.

“Cuz we never chilled on some like chill sh*t bro,” CleoTrapa shared, according to AllHipHop. “It was always in the blogs the next day and the song is dropping, too.”

She kept it rolling, saying, “You actually have one time to show me that you are jealous, intimidated, untrustworthy, fake, disloyal, ingenuine, manipulative, and calculated.” In her 5-part TikTok series, CleoTrapa claimed she only got one day to prep for the tour, got left out of the official promo, and was treated like she didn’t even matter. She says she had to change clothes in public bathrooms, pay for her own hotel rooms, and wasn’t even getting paid.
Of course, the internet added fuel to the fire and Ice Spice wasn’t staying quiet. She clapped back on her IG, talking about how sad it is to see people “crashing out.”
“Crashing out is sad you guys,” Ice Spice posted. “The scary part of fame honestly is the moment that somebody feels like they can no longer use your platform or like they’re not getting exactly what they want out of a situation the way that they want it… That’s when they decide to crash out every single time. I’m noticing a pattern.”
Then she added some more sprinkles with “You got less than 10,000 listeners and I’m sharing my stage with you. And you feeling so entitled.”
Baby Storme, the same friend who leaked the iMessages where Ice Spice called Nicki Minaj “delusional,” jumped into the conversation, too. She had her own words for CleoTrapa, saying she had tried to warn her about all this.
“I tried to warn you & you just threatened to beat me up,” Storme shared, along with an old message she had sent CleoTrapa. “Nevertheless, I’m sorry that happened to you.”
CleoTrapa wasn’t feeling that and responded, “Oh I threatened to beat you up cause you was doing all that cause was mad at ice,” she said. “It didn’t give you had any respect for me boo You really could’ve dm’d me from the jump with that whole situation if you was on some real bi**h sh*t word but thank you.”
This whole situation just shows what life on the road can really be like, especially for an up-and-coming artist. It’s not all glamour and flashing lights—sometimes it’s grimy, grinding your way from the bottom, getting treated like an afterthought, and still trying to make your mark. Starting from the bottom builds character, though. It’s tough out there, but paying your dues is how you get your stripes in this game.
