What did PinkPantheress say about choosing Ice Spice to do the remix of Boy's a Liar Pt. 2

In February 2023, PinkPantheress sat for an interview with NME. During the conversation, the singer shed more light on the making of the popular track. PinkPantheress further recalled the moment when they decided that they would want to consider Ice Spice for the remix of the 2023 song. The British singer said,

"I saw that [Ice Spice] followed me because I was on Instagram, and I never go on Instagram. I thought it was cool because I didn’t think she even knew who I was. I popped in [the DMs] and said, 'Whenever you're in the UK, I'd love to meet.'"

PinkPantheress further claimed that Ice Spice told her that she was a big fan. The singer also claimed that apart from the music, Spice seemed to have a cool personality. In the interview, PinkPantheress further revealed that she wasn't someone who was very fond of doing remixes.

However, she made an exception for Boy's a Liar Pt. 2 and believed that Spice could do justice to the original song. She further believed that many singers found it difficult to work with the beats she chose, but Ice Spice reportedly seemed adept with them. PinkPatheress additionally mentioned,

"Even though Ice Spice does drill, her flows are super unique, and the beats she chooses are different."
