The song features a plethora of references to expensive name brands. This is clearly the rapper’s way of letting the audience know that he does in fact have it like that. Furthermore, it can even be theorized that the “ice” in the title serves as a metaphor for pricey jewelry, i.e. diamonds. 

What’s the meaning of “Put Em On Ice”?

As far as the titular term’s utilization in the chorus, it can be taken as perhaps Lil Durk’s indirect way of expressing his ideology of sharing the wealth. However, the second verse would further imply that he’s particularly dedicated to that case as far as his closest associates are concerned.

“Put her on ice, she play
Put on my ice, I’m safe
My lil’ brother, he carry a Drac’
And I told him ain’t nobody safe
And I told him ain’t nobody safe”
