“Big guy, big guy, big-big guy, big guy.”
Word. The keyword, courtesy of Ice Spice, is BIG. Big: 5 Gems isn’t a big playlist – it’s bite-sized – but that doesn’t stop the songs from being B-I-G to the nth degree! With that said, there is no need to belabor things. Big: 5 Gems features songs by Ambrosia, Ice Spice, Latto, Lil Mabu, and SuS Records.  So, without further ado, put your big boy or girl pants on, and embrace the bigness!

1. Ice Spice, “Big Guy”

“Facin’ the world in a brand-new way / SpongeBob, big guy pants, okay.”
Okayyy! Grrah! Depending upon who you ask, Ice Spice (Isis Gaston, b. 2000) delivered one of the worst songs of 2025. “Big Guy” was panned by many.  It should be noted, however, that the song does hail from the soundtrack of a children’s movie, The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants. No, it’s no “Let It Go” or “We Don’t Talk About Bruno”, but is it as abysmal as “Friend of Mine”? Not by my estimations!

 

No, “Big Guy” is no tour de force, but did anyone expect it to be? This RiotUSA (“Stop playin’ with ‘em, RIOT”), Venny, and 1keep produced joint features striking, colorful, and rhythmic synths. The syncopated beat provides an anchor.  Ice Spice doesn’t sound brand-new, delivering a cool, low-energy performance with her familiar, tried-and-true flow.  The punch is minimal; however, you’ll find yourself unable to get the repetitive chorus of “Big Buy” unstuck from your head.

“Big guy, big guy, big-big guy, big guy
SpongeBob, big guy pants, okay (Grrah)
SpongeBob, big guy pants, okay (Grrah)
Big guy, big guy, big-big guy, big guy
SpongeBob, big guy pants, okay (Like)
SpongeBob, big guy pants, okay.”

Beyond the chorus, the lyrics reference the characters and happenings from SpongeBob SquarePants. Is there really much you can take away from “Tight fit, square hips / Doin’ a dance in my big guy pants,” or “Feel like that fish, so I’m pumpin’ my chest.” Nope, not really.  By my estimations, “Big Guy” by Ice Spice is what it is: a song from the soundtrack of a children’s movie.

2. Lil Mabu, “BIG DOG SH*T” (Ft. Lil RT)

YOUNG GENIUS » YOUNG GENIUS ACADEMY INC. » 2024

Lil Mabu, YOUNG GENIUS [📷: YOUNG GENIUS ACADEMY INC.]Lil Mabu (Matthew Peter DeLuca) is… something else.  A prime example of the unserious, affluent, white boy rapper being ‘something else’ is “BIG DOT SH*T”.  This sh*tty song appears on his album, YOUNG GENIUS.  That doesn’t feel like an accurate description of the rapping… Anyways, Mabu, who was pushing 19 when “BIG DOG SH*T” dropped, collaborated with then 9-year-old rapper, Lil RT – I SH*T you not! The result of the collaboration is nothing short of a hot mess! It begins with the chorus where Mabu asserts, “I’m a big dog, I do big dog shit / I fuck your bitch raw, I heard she been wantin’ the kid.”  Lil RT gets in on the action… at least some of it: “I’m a big dog, and I do big dog shit / In that big body whip like it’s PAW Patrol, bitch.” Oh, my! In the verse, the rappers trade ridiculous bars.  Mabu spits, “C ‘cause I’m a Crip, sike, bitch, suwoop,” later rapping, “I got young shooters ‘round me, found ‘em in the childhood / I gave his ass a lollipop when he do good.”  To that, Lil RT responds, “How many licks do it take to get the lolly popped?” RT also speaks about his ‘career’ in the bridge: “I know a lot of people got stuff to say about me / I’m just a kid from Atlanta … / Mabu told me a hundred times, it’s deeper than music.” Geez, Louise! “BIG DOT SH*T” reeks! A giant-ass pooper scooper is required to clean up this one!

3. Latto, “Big Mama”

Sugar Honey Iced Tea » Steamcut / RCA » 2025

“What you gon’ do for Big Mama, for real?”
That is a fascinating, mind-boggling question, Latto (Alyssa Stephens). The Grammy-nominated rapper released “Big Mama” as a single in 2024.  It modestly impacted the pop charts, spending one week on the Billboard Hot 100, where it peaked at number 92. It’s a bummer, but that doesn’t keep the second track from her 2025 album, Sugar Honey Iced Tea, from being a certified rap banger.  Oh, and by certified, I mean that the single received gold certification from the Recording Industry Association of America.  Not too shabby!  “Big Mama” features lots of writers, including Latto, and producers COUPE, OZ, and Kid Masterpiece. It samples the 1989 song, “Shadow Love”, by Jaya.

“Big Mama” is the tale of two songs.  Part one features cool, rhythmic production (the Jaya sample). You might describe it as a chill vibe. Still, Latto brings the heat, delivering a rhythmic, melodic cadence and flow. Even though the sound of the first part of the record is kinder and gentler, Latto is still profane and offers plenty of NSFW lyrics. “Can you give me some good dick ‘til I cum? (Cum for you),” she asks, and continues, “Then can you make me nut again, where’s your tongue?” Oo-wee! If that wasn’t enough, the second part of “Big Mama” goes harder. Latto rids of the pitch, dropping hard-nosed, unapologetic rhymes:

“Thought I told you bitches, I pull up in twenty Cadillacs (Skrrt), yeah

Money long, cheetah thong, thick as hell, Georgia Dome

Sharin’ niggas, sharin’ clothes, I don’t know what y’all be on.”

Holy shyt! Beyond the verse, you won’t be able to get the repeated “Big Mama(s)” unstuck from your head during the chorus.  “Big Mama” = banger, PERIOD!

4. SuS Records, “Your Dick Is Way Too Big”

“Your Dick Is Way Too Big” » James Werner » 2025

“You came back knockin’ on my backdoor / I told ya I don’t wanna see you anymore.”
Bummer! Backdoor, huh? It’s giving 🍑… The reason why she won’t allow ole boy back might surprise you, however.  According to SuS Records, simply put, “Your Dick Is Way Too Big” 😳.  So, for all of you size queens out there, in this instance, he’s packing too much! Another AI artist catching ears with outlandish and unapologetic music, Sus Records claims to be bringing back the songs that never were. Yup, I have no doubt this one never existed… In this self-described banned 1940s song, in a dirty blues/jazz style, the fit is not ideal.

Characteristic of dirty blues, the singer, Ms. Wilma Fingerdoo 😏, is accompanied by piano. She delivers assertive, dynamic, and robust vocals.  The lyrics are NOT SAFE WORK.  Outlandish, she’s brutally honest about the fact that he can’t fit.

“Your dick’s way too big, it’s never gonna fit

Your dick’s way too big, it’s gonna make me split

It’s not fitting in my mouth or in my back door

Your dick’s too big, so I can’t see you no more.”

Too much information, and yet, our dirty minds picture every filthy lyric.  By the way, that backdoor reference is clarified… 🍑.  Fingerdoo provides more eyebrow-raising moments.  In the second verse, she states, “You have a cock as big as two or three guys.” Hmm, I have questions… The bridge raises even more questions. “But the first six inches is only the tip,” she sings, and continues, “If you put the whole thing in, I’d have a heart attack / You’re the one who’s taller, lyin’ on their back.”Say what now?! A six-inch tip? If that is indeed the case, Wilma knows exactly what she’s talking about.  The risks for injury would be greatly increased given the massive size of such a D… Ultimately, Wilma Fingerdoo, SuS Records, and “Your Dick Is Way Too Big” should all be taken with an itty bitty grain of salt.

5. Ambrosia, “Biggest Part of Me”

One Eighty » Warner » 1980

“(Sunrise) There’s a new sun a-risin’ / (In your eyes) I can see a new horizon / (Realize) That will keep me realizin’ / You’re the biggest part of me.”
When mentioning Ambrosia, the first song that comes to mind, and the biggest hit of their career, is “Biggest Part of Me”, from the band’s 1980 gold-certified album, One Eighty. It was written by David Pack, who also sings lead vocals.  Ambrosia and Freddie Piro produced this love-oriented, blue-eyed soul/pop/R&B/soft-rock song. It was a success on the pop charts, peaking at number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earning gold certification.  The band also received a Grammy nomination at the 23rd Annual GRAMMY Awards for Best Pop Performance By A Duo or Group with Vocals.

“(Forever) Got a feeling that forever / (Together) We are gonna stay together / (Forever) From now until forever / You’re the biggest part of me.” “Biggest Part of Me” benefits from its lush production work, especially the warmth of the keys (electric with reverb). The bass line is robust, the rhythm guitar is buttery smooth, and the groove from the drums is groovy. Other instruments also make “Biggest Part of Me” the sugar honey iced tea.  The organ amplifies the soul vibes once it enters the mix.  The synths are idiomatic of the 1980s sound/aesthetic. Do you know what else is quintessential of the decade? A saxophone solo! Harmonically, the progression is another selling point, with its chromatic moments and chords that extend beyond I, IV, and V. Besides the terrific music, Pack brings the heat vocally.  His pipes are gorgeous and soulful, tailored to the blue-eyed soul, pop, and soft-rock vibes. Pack leads the charge with tuneful melodies throughout.  The lyrics capture L-O-V-E without a hitch:

“Hey, make a wish, baby (Wish and it will come true)

Well, and I will make it come true

Make a list, baby (Make a list of the things for you)

Of the things I’ll do for you

Ain’t no risk, now (Let it rain on you)

In lettin’ my love rain down on you

So, we could wash away the past (Wash)

So that we may start anew.”

Upping the ante are background vocals, in all their harmonious warmth! “Biggest Part of Me” speaks for itself in its celestial glory.
