Songfacts®:

  • "Deli" is one of four additional tracks from the deluxe edition of Ice Spice's debut EP Like..?. The rapper released it as a single on July 21, 2023, the same day she dropped the deluxe edition.
  • She a baddie, she showin' her panty
    She shake it like jelly
    Hunnit bands in Chanely
    But I'm still shakin' ass in the deli


    Ice Spice is a true boss, known for her sizzling style and blazing music. She rocks see-through threads and short skirts, stealing the spotlight with her provocative moves. This bad girl embraces her skimpy dressing, twerking like a pro, even at the deli! Yeah, she's got the paper, but she stays true to her roots, keeping it 'hood.
  • He want the WAP, but I just want the fetty
    And I'm baggin' his partner, I'm petty


    Ice's lyrics shout independence loud and clear. She's all about that "fetty" (money) not some guy drooling for her "WAP." Ice Spice isn't afraid to make moves, even if it means bagging someone else's partner. She's a tough-as-nails chick who lives by her own code.
  • Ice Spice wrote "Deli" with her regular collaborator, RiotUSA. Bronx-bred producer RiotUSA has created the beats for Ice since her first song, "Bully Freestyle."
  • The video for "Deli," directed by Ice Spice herself alongside George and Frederick Buford, was shot on July 14 and 15, 2023 at a New York bodega on 145th Street. Ice's producer, RiotUSA, and fellow New York rapper, Cleotrapa, make cameo appearances.

    In the "Deli" video, Spice and her friends showcase their dance moves, with lots of twerking. One of the twerking dancers is the 16-year-old TikToker Aya Tanjali, which sparked some controversy.
  • "Deli" plays in the 2024 Super Bowl commercial for Starry soda where Ice Spice gets an awkward visit from her ex-boyfriend, "Lemon Lime Soda."

    Spice was at the game alongside Taylor Swift as they cheered on Swift's boyfriend, Travis Kelce, who emerged victorious. His team, the Kansas City Chiefs, beat the San Francisco 49ers in overtime.
