"Ice Tray" is a song released by record label

Control the Streets, Vol. 1 (2017).[1]

Background

The song was initially released as the third track from

Control the Streets, Vol. 1,[2] before being released as the compilation album's fourth single.[1]

Controversy with Joe Budden

The song is notable for directly sending shots at rapper and media personality

Complex's Everyday Struggle.[6] Budden has had a history of conflicts with Lil Yachty, Quavo and Migos, from when he was bashing Lil Yachty on Everyday Struggle and most notably the incident at the BET Awards pre-show, where Budden walked off set of an interview conducted with his Everyday Struggle colleagues DJ Akademiks and Nadeska Alexis for the hip hop trio, causing a conflict that was momentarily caught on tape.[7]

Music video

The video features lookalikes of Joe Budden, DJ Akademiks and Nadeska Alexis, on a mock re-enactment episode of

Complex's Everyday Struggle, titled "Old Rappers Struggling". The video also features cameo appearances from Offset and Takeoff of Migos,[6][8] as well as jeweler Johnny Dang who has designed jewelry for many famed hip hop stars.[9]
