Spice, real name Grace Hamilton, is an accomplished dancehall artist, having been in the Dancehall industry for over 20 years, but has been vocal about the challenges she has faced in trying to reach an international audience.
In 2018, Spice joined the cast of VH1's popular reality-drama TV show Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta. While many Jamaicans accused her of "selling out", the television show gave her a larger platform to showcase her talent.
In November 2018, she released her first full-length mixtape titled Captured. The mixtape, with its controversial lead single "Black Hypocrisy", debuted at number one on the Billboard Reggae Albums chart.
