Ice Spice's high school photos surface and many think that she looks like Lauren London.

Ice Spice is undoubtedly one of the most exciting new artists in hip-hop. Since the release of “Munch (Feelin’ U),” she began carving out her own lane in rap. She’s a product of the New York drill movement, and easily, one of the most compelling artists out of the subgenre. Songs like “Bikini Bottom” and “In Ha Mood” further catapulted her to stardom, and it appears that she’s accepted everything that comes along with fame, whether good or bad. For the most part, she seems unfazed at the attention she’s received. 

The thing is, Ice Spice seems like a relatively private person. Though she’s popped out a lot in recent times, she rarely reveals information about her personal life. It’s possible that she rather the music speak for herself, and use her future releases to tell her own story. However, Ice Spice’s generally reserved demeanor has undoubtedly led fans down rabbitholes to know more about her life. Fans previously uncovered a video of Ice Spice playing volleyball in her college days at Purchase College.

Ice Spice’s High School Yearbook Photo Surfaces

If you ever wanted to see what Ice Spice looked like in high school, take a look above. Earlier today, fans somehow found an old high school photo of the Bronx rapper from a yearbook. Many were taken aback by the photo, especially since she looks distinguishably different than she does now. Though that’s normal in the process of growing up, many people were shocked to see her without the orange afro or glammed up and ready to hit a red carpet event. 

She has yet to respond to the photo but it seems inevitable. She’s relatively active on Twitter these days, often chiming in on viral moments. Perhaps, she’ll end up catching the comparisons to Lauren London that spread across the timeline. “Ok I can see Ice Spice being in a movie with Lauren London playing as her sister,” one user wrote on Twitter. Though a few people compared their looks to each other, it seems that Ice Spice’s high school photo reinforced these comparisons even more. We’ll keep you posted if Ice Spice ends up responding.
