Spice released the uncut promo for the second single from the album on Friday “Tape Measure” which feature​s​ a nude ​black ​​ ​man and a white​male ​ model.
The objectifying teaser which shows spice using a tape measure to calculate the length of his penis elicited several memes including from Miami based body surgeon who tweeted “When Spice drops a new video and your office phone starts ringing non-stop.”

Tech blogger Ingrin Riley tweeted, “Spice’s objectification of men is a joy to see. Yeah, you read that right. Have a fantastic and tape-measured weekend y’all.”
