Ice Spice is catching some heat after releasing the music video for her single “Deli.”
The music video of the Bronx rapper features the presence of the popular TikToker, Aya Tanjali, appearing in several scenes. However, fans noticed that Tanjali was on all fours twerking on a countertop, which sparked some controversy. In its efforts to provide proper context to users, Twitter added a cautionary message to Ice Spice’s tweet that was promoting the visual.
“Viewers should be warned this video features a minor dancing in a sexually provocative manner, which may violate state and federal laws,” the message reads. “One of the dancers in this video is 16 years old, a fact likely known to Ice Spice, as the two follow one another on Instagram.”
While Ice Spice has yet to address the video, the deluxe edition of “Like..?” was released last Friday, featuring five new tracks. These tracks are “How High?,” “Butterfly Ku,” “Deli,” the remix of “Princess Diana” featuring Nicki Minaj, and Ice Spice’s freestyle on “On The Radar” hosted by Gabe P.

Ice Spice ain’t said nothin about that 16 year old being in her video yet??? like you’re essentially okaying the sexualization and exploitation of minors while you navigate the very industry known for such???? I can’t support that.

So you mean to tell me not a SINGLE PERSON on the set of Ice Spice’s music video thought to themselves “Maybe having a 16-year-old girl twerking isn’t such a good idea”
Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with y’all?? pic.twitter.com/Q8596QqoRw

The argument over the 16 yr old twerking in ice spice video is going over some of yalls heads. Yea she CAN do whatever she wants with her life but ice spice putting a minor in HER video twerking on top a table is weird and anyone saying different is also weird.

‼️ Ice Spice has been owned by community notes for having a 16 year old twerking in her music video.
Why would her parents allow this? pic.twitter.com/lgG172GlfW
