About a month ago, two rising stars, the British dance-pop singer PinkPantheress and the Bronx rapper Ice Spice, got together to release “Boy’s A Liar Pt. 2,” a new version of a PinkPantheress solo track that came out late last year. “Boy’s A Liar Pt. 2” was an immediate out-of-nowhere smash; it’s already by far […]
