Ice Spice appears to have struck gold with her latest single, “Big Guy,” which is set to be featured in the much-anticipated “SpongeBob” movie releasing later this year. The Bronx rapper has quickly become a trending topic across social media platforms, and her new track is already making waves.
Released on November 14, “Big Guy” serves as the lead single for the soundtrack of “The SpongeBob Movie: Search For SquarePants,” hitting theaters on December 19. The infectious melody has already earned its place in the meme-making arena, reminiscent of previous viral hits. Critics and fans alike have taken to platforms like X (formerly Twitter) to share their humorous takes on the song, with many incorporating it into various memes. The song’s catchy nature has some listeners enamored, while others express their fatigue from its repeated plays.
Notably, music critic Jeff Ihaza of Rolling Stone described “Big Guy” as possessing the “wholesomeness of a Bronx drill Cocomelon,” highlighting its appeal to both children and adults. The song’s humorous lyrics and upbeat rhythm have inspired a plethora of memes, with fans creatively integrating the phrase “big guy” into their posts, often accompanied by the song.
For Ice Spice, contributing to the iconic “SpongeBob” franchise is a dream come true. In an interview with Rolling Stone, she shared her excitement, stating, “Being part of the SpongeBob soundtrack is such a full circle moment for me. It’s crazy to see my music in a movie that’s been part of so many people’s childhoods, including mine.” In addition to her musical contribution, Ice Spice will also lend her voice to a character in the film, portraying a fish at Bikini Bottom High School, as seen in the recently released music video.
This achievement marks another significant milestone in Ice Spice’s rising career, solidifying her status as a formidable force in the music industry.
