Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice have released their song for Greta Gerwig’s Barbie movie. The RiotUSA-produced single, “Barbie World,” interpolates and reinterprets Aqua’s “Barbie Girl.” It comes with a new music video directed by Hannah Lux Davis, too. In the very pink visual, the rappers—and their doll likenesses—hang out in their own sort of Barbie Dreamhouse. Watch below.
“Barbie World” is the fourth single from Barbie the Album, following Dua Lipa’s “Dance the Night,” Karol G’s “Watati,” and PinkPantheress’ “Angel.” The soundtrack and movie are out on Friday, July 21.
Nicki Minaj—who released “Barbie Tingz” in 2018 and whose fans are known as Barbz—previously collaborated with Ice Spice on “Princess Diana.” She is planning to release her Queen follow-up on October 20.
Ice Spice released her debut EP, Like..?, in January. She has had three top five hits in 2023: “Princess Diana,” “Boys a Liar, Pt. 2” (with PinkPantheress), and “Karma” (with Taylor Swift).
