Pinkpantheress has interpolated f(x)‘s track “Ice Cream” off their NU ABO album on her track “Another Life” off her debut album Heaven Knows. In case you didn’t catch it, she wanted to make sure everybody knew.
Considering the apparent impact she’s been having on K-pop’s sound of late, this is especially cool timing.

Granted, this isn’t close to the first time she’s done this with K-pop, as she’s also used f(x)’s “Sweet Witches” in a “I’m Just Dirt” snippet…
…had EXID‘s “Night Rather Than Day” in “Met You“…
…had NCT 127‘s “Knock On” in “Your Eyes“…
…and a bunch of others like Red Velvet‘s “Really Bad Boy” on a “I Haven’t Known Myself For Very Long” snippet, SHINee‘s “Don’t Stop“, Beenzino‘s “We Are Going To“, and TXT‘s “20cm“.
