Meet Spice, the Jamaican queen of dancehall undergoing her own musical revolution

Alternative Press (2022)

Lately, every day has been a thrill for Spice. Jamaica’s very own dancehall queen celebrated her birthday, finished up an international tour… For Spice, aka Grace Hamilton, her unadulterated joy has been hard-won. But thanks to a new partnership with United Masters and Stealth Music Group — and the release of her new album Emancipated — Spice finally feels free.

"My whole career has been me doing whatever I wanted to do at that moment. I say at that moment because, you know, three years later, I may [not be interested in the same things.] I'm going to actually ramp up. Rest in peace, Virgil [Abloh]. Safest travels. [His passing made me realize] there is no time. I have to turn that lever up for myself. I have all these ideas, and [I'm going to go for them] all. Get it in the works. Fuck waiting. Time is the realest luxury ever and we've got that."
