"The Hip Hop Offspring of Love Jones NYC"

"... J-Harris announced IB to the stage and the crowd went wild, immediately jumping to the stage and filling any space that was left between them and the stage and with good reason. I was mesmerized as the Houston-native came on stage in her shirt that read: Sorry We’re Outchea.
Once again confirming the parental advisory she warned: Excuse me for cussing’ in advance but I cuss a lot.
This was IB’s first show as an unsigned artist in four years and together with J-Harris she’s been working on this show for the last four months and it was evident, as she said: If I die tomorrow I can finally get some sleep in. IB literally grew up in the shadows of Destiny’s Child and with hits like Outta My Mind, Spaceship, Lighters and Your Cups and Duckin’ You it’s clear that she will be in the shadows no longer. IB has taken the stage by storm and is the first female emcee in a long time that I’ve seen who will be able to bring back the reverence of female emcees..." - Sunny- lovealwayssunny.com blog review


"Unsigned Band of the Week: IB"

“ IB has a superb lyrical forte, witty one-liners, and an edgy, yet feminine delivery. She is a force in hip-hop to be reckoned with and quite simply...the hottest unsigned hip-hop artist that the world has yet to hear.”
- High Times Magazine - High Times Magazine Unsigned Band of the Week


"OurStage Hip Hop Habit: IB"

“Taming your jealousy of another person’s success becomes a lot easier when you keep in mind that everyone’s just trying to make it. Same goes for the world of musicians. The collection of artists here on OurStage consists of minnows and sharks with careers both static and mobile, perhaps the latter of which is best exemplified in female emcee IB. To be fair, this girl is connected. Like really, really well connected. From her familial ties to the Knowles family (yes, that would be the family of Beyoncé Knowles) to the star-studded guest spots in her OurStage catalog (Wale makes an appearance), it appears on paper that she’s off to the races. In reality that hasn’t happened yet, but if her fantastic output remains consistent, it will soon.”

"Making It In Bed-Stuy"

“Rapper Ingrid Burley doesn’t get much sleep. The 23-year-old Houston native rarely sleeps past six a.m. on a good day. She refuses to buy a bed – she doesn’t want to get too comfortable.”
- Joi-Marie Mckenzie & Cambrey Thomas - The Brooklyn Ink
