Ep. 6 | Ice Tha One rocks the mic like a Monstar

Ice Tha One is like an ace of spades. She play her cards with swift, sharp wisdom.

Whether on the mic, or the basketball court, it’s a big team huddle with community before her musical projects are shared with the world.

Born in Newfoundland and raised in Toronto’s Moss Park, Ice affectionately loves the East End and represents it with unparalleled pride. While tuff tough in the booth and on stage, the gifted MC is far from cold. Ice is one of the warmest humans around, and extends authentic compassion, support and collaboration with anyone she meets.

Ice is a true friend that I’m lucky to call one of mine, and let me tell you - no one can dim her shine. Our conversation delves into the layered influences Ice has curated, her professional work, sports career, latest project Monstar, with a hint at what’s on the way.

In this episode, you’ll hear music from:
The Controllers - Castles In The Sky
Tracy Chapman - The Promise
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme, Pt. 1 Acknowledgement
DMX - Ruff Ryders Anthem
