\t\t\t\t\tBig Mama\u2019s House: Latto Promises Her Album Will Catapult Her Into the Hip-Hop\u00a0Elite\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\n\t\u201cIf I was to do [a battle], it would have to be with somebody I feel like Imma go tit for tat with,\u201d Latto told Billboard<\/em> for her new cover story<\/a>. \u201cI really don\u2019t mean it as shade. Would she even want to do that?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBetween Megan Thee Stallion<\/a> and Nicki Minaj<\/a>\u2018s January back-and-forth<\/a>, Quavo<\/a> and Chris Brown<\/a>\u2018s beef<\/a>, and, of course, the culture-shifting Drizzy-K.Dot<\/a> showdown<\/a>, rap battles have been a big phenomenon across hip-hop this year. While each of those spats resulted in full-fledged diss tracks, Latto and Ice have been primarily concerned with sending subliminals to one another.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI feel like she\u2019s doing her in her lane. It\u2019s two different types of vibes,\u201d Latto continued. \u201cI don\u2019t even think she gives me like, \u2018Oh, she wants to engage in an actual rap beef.\u2019 Everybody gon\u2019 take their lil jabs in the music, and it\u2019s not even that serious to me; I feel like you should do that. Continue to! But as far as actual whole diss records to each other, I don\u2019t think she would even want to do that. I feel like \u2026 would it even make sense? It wouldn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn January\u2019s \u201cThink U the Shit,\u201d the Bronx rapper spit, \u201cI got my foot on they necks, I can\u2019t let up\/ She all on the floor, told her get up,\u201d a reference to Latto\u2019s 2023 Cardi B<\/a>-assisted hit \u201cPut It On Da Floor Again,\u201d which reached No. 13 on the Hot 100. Then two weeks later on Feb. 9, Latto tagged Ice back with \u201cSunday Service,\u201d which housed the bar, \u201cThink I\u2019m the s\u2013t? B\u2014h, I know it, h-\/ Jesus walked on water, I got ice boilin\u2019 though.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe tension goes all the way back to a Jan. 7 TikTok<\/a> in which Latto teased a snippet of \u201cSunday Service\u201d \u2014 which was not originally directed at the \u201cPrincess Diana\u201d rapper \u2014 while Ice and Rema<\/a>\u2018s \u201cPretty Girl\u201d music video played in the background. In an X Spaces session, Ice remarked<\/a> on the \u201cweak-ass snippet,\u201d saying, \u201cSo I was like, \u2018Wait a second \u2014 that\u2019s me?\u2019 So I\u2019m like, \u2018OK, since we\u2019re talking about me, let\u2019s talk about me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAlthough Latto clarified<\/a> that the \u201cPretty Girl\u201d video was not playing in the background on purpose, that didn\u2019t do much to put their friction to bed. The \u201cBig Energy\u201d rapper went on to film her \u201cSunday Service\u201d music video<\/a> in Ice\u2019s hometown of the Bronx, which spurred the ginger emcee to put up several billboards promoting \u201cThink U the Shit\u201d in Latto\u2019s hometown of Atlanta. Some of those billboards were later vandalized<\/a>, and Latto got her lick back during her history-making WHTA (Hot 107.9) Birthday Bash headlining set, which she celebrated by posting a picture<\/a> of a poop emoji-shaped cake<\/a> \u2014 that read \u201cHoly S\u2013t, You\u2019re Headlining\u201d underneath \u2014 with the caption \u201cThink I\u2019m the s\u2013t , b\u2014h?????\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAt the 2024 BET Awards<\/a> \u2014 where they directly competed in two categories, including best female hip-hop artist (Minaj won) \u2014 both ladies performed their shade-laden tracks during their respective medleys.<\/p>\n

\n\tWith Y2K<\/em>, Ice Spice\u2019s debut studio album, due July 26, and Latto\u2019s third studio album, Sugar Honey Iced Tea<\/em>, arriving in August, fans will see if the two Grammy-nominated stars continue to throw shots at each other as the year rolls on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
