Songfacts®:

  • The phrase "in the mood" (or as Ice Spice puts it "in da mood") typically refers to feeling a vibe to do something specific. The Bronx baddie is in the mood to enjoy herself partying, and her man wants to know why she's stopped coming by.
  • Spice also flaunts her popularity after she took off with her viral track "Munch (Feelin' U)."

    They like, 'Ice, how you always stay hot?'
    Oh, they mad 'cause I keep making bops


    Ice Spice is clearly in the mood to take the NYC hip-hop scene by storm.
  • RIOTUSA's infectious, rumbling beat takes sonic inspiration from the Jersey club scene. RIOTUSA previously produced the Bronx baddie's "Munch (Feelin' U)" and its follow-up single, "Bikini Bottom."
  • In the Oliver Cannon and Chris Villa-directed video, Spice cruises around New York City in a Jeep while rapping along to her bars. Rather than her typical ginger afro, she sports a smooth and straight hairstyle with bangs.
  • Brooklyn rapper/songwriter Duval "D.Chamberz" Chamberlain and his producer Kenley "Kass The Producer" Carmenate brought legal action against Ice Spice, claiming "In Ha Mood" copied their 2022 song "In That Mood."

    According to court documents filed on September 20, 2024, both parties in the lawsuit reached a settlement agreement. The terms of the deal remain confidential.
