Latto recently described herself as “a girl’s girl” when discussing why she doesn’t charge up-and-coming female rappers for features. Moreover, the statements came from the “Lottery” rapper’s recent interview with Billboard for their Women In Music photoshoot series. While the Columbus, Ohio-born artist is in a high industry echelon right now, she also reflected on her early beginnings with her breakout 2020 hit “B***h From Da Souf.” Also, she spoke on the early love she got from stars like Trina, City Girls, SZA, Queen Latifah, and many more. “I get a lot of love,” she said with a bright smile. “Real recognize real.”
Furthermore, she elaborated on why she doesn’t let money get in the way of her features for a rising female artist. “My No. 1 thing has been being a girl’s girl,” she expressed. “I utilize my power in uplifting others on my way up. When you see Latto do a feature with an upcoming female rapper, I don’t charge them. The label got to cover the glam, but I don’t profit off that.” Moreover, a lot of that industry love carried over as careers blossomed into superstardom. For example, she recently remixed SZA’s track “Smoking on my Ex Pack,” nodding one of her early supporters in the game.
