The Apple Music description also reveals that the track is a joint effort between Heavy On It, 10K Projects, and Capitol Records. While the latter two belong to Ice Spice, Nicki’s confirmation on Twitter practically confirms that Heavy On It is indeed her label.

Nicki has frequently used the phrase “Heavy on the Sleeze” in recent years, and she recently released a single called Red Ruby Da Sleeze at the start of 2023.
The original “Princess Diana” track featured on Spice’s Like..? EP, released in January. The remix includes some hot bars from Nicki and visuals. Check it out below:
Fans of the “Seeing Green” raptress will recall that she previously referred to the 23-year-old “Munch” rapper as “the people’s princess” in a retweet of Ice’s DAZED magazine cover:

Ice retweeted Nicki’s tweet and said, “ya heard da QUEEN.”
This led many to speculate that Ice Spice could be the next artist to sign with Nicki’s brand new record label. Take a listen to Nicki’s announcement below:
On the magazine front…
Ice Spice has been making waves with her unique musical style, and in a recent interview with Paper magazine, the Bronx native opened up about how she’s created a whole new avenue for herself.
When asked if she feels like she fits in with New York City’s drill scene, she refused to be boxed in by labels, instead explaining how her sound has birthed “a new lane.”
”I don’t know if I fit in. I think that’s what makes me so different,” she explained. “I feel like I’ve started something new, and now I’m hearing a lot of other artists that sound like they belong in my lane.”
Some Hip Hop fans are saying she’s shading her rap nemesis Latto.
