Latto Recalls Bringing Loaded Glock 17 To LAX & Getting Locked Up

Latto is no stranger to getting flamed on social media, and while she certainly navigates the hate from internet trolls like a pro, it has to be exhausting being criticized so publicly and regularly. While she’s recently faced backlash for working with Dr. Luke on “Lottery,” seemingly twisting the truth about her willingness to work with other female artists for free, and wearing the same panties twice, the rap diva is now rightfully being slammed for bringing a loaded weapon to LAX with her. She shared the story on Twitter earlier this weekend, though many were quick to inform her it’s not exactly the flex she seems to think.

“Bitches PUSSC ain’t taking NUN!!!” the 24-year-old posted on Friday (March 17) afternoon. “I got [locked] up in da airport… GODDAMN forgot da gun,” a fan wrote in response, earning Latto’s attention. “True story!!!” she responded before further explaining the situation when another follower asked her to give “more insight” into her previous arrest ahead of a work trip. “Went to LAX [with] a loaded Glock 17 in my [Birkin],” her post began.

Latto’s LAX Nightmare

Apparently, Latto was locked up but let out after just a few hours. “Booked a $75K jet to my show in Alabama and still made it on time,” the Ohio-born rhymer flexed. “No cap in my rap TUH.” In another post, she confirmed that the LAX incident was different from another one in Atlanta when a female cop allegedly kept trying to make her “cough hard.” She told Twitter, “I was profiled for ‘looking like’ [some] bitch that robbed a n*gga… I’m not no robber man 😂. Jail is NOT for me btw 🥴.”

Unsurprisingly, haters almost instantly began ridiculing the 777 hitmaker for bragging about something so immature and potentially dangerous. “Why do you walk around w a Glock in your bag? Is that supposed to be cute?” someone asked Latto. “Why in the world would you need a loaded Glock, you are not hood and you have no opps,” another user pointed out.

Latto’s Cheetah Print Panties Return In New Twerking Video: Watch

While a life of fame sounds glamorous from the outside looking in, most celebrities actually receive near-constant criticism on social media. Some manage to mostly stay out of the ring of fire by laying it low and playing it safe, while others, with bigger and bolder personalities, never hesitate to cause a stir and create discourse. Lately, it’s been Latto who appears to be taking on the most backlash among the female rap stars, for a variety of reasons.

On her first single of 2023, the 777 hitmaker worked with producer Dr. Luke, whose reputation has been knowingly embattled. Of course, others like Saweetie and Nicki Minaj have worked with him in recent years, though they seemed to face far less criticism for their collaborations. Elsewhere in the internet space, an internet troll made fun of Latto for wearing the same pair of panties in two different thirst traps.

Latto Shamed for Underwear Repeating

In her usual fashion, the 24-year-old was quick to troll her hater, dubbing them the “panty police” before going on to list her used underwear for sale on eBay. The salacious garment had bidders willing to spend $100,000 just to own Latto’s worn thong, though the website eventually shut down the auction over health and safety concerns. Even if she didn’t actually get the money, seeing the bidding rise from $0.99 cents to six figures surely gave the recording artist an ego boost.

Since she couldn’t get rid of the infamous cheetah print bottoms, Latto opted to put them on display once again while filming the “Mouskatool (Remix)” music video. The song belongs to Chicago rapper Mello Buckzz, who brought the Ohio-born star on as a guest feature on the reimagined version of her hit single. In the forthcoming visual, Alyssa Stephens’ booty does nothing short of bounce while friends hype her and her exposed panties up. See the on-set antics for yourself below, and check back later for more hip-hop news updates.

Latto’s Infamous Cheetah Print Undies Were On Full Display As She Twerked On The Set Of ‘Mouskatool’ Video

Latto can’t help but be a constant topic across social media. Instead of fighting it, the “Lottery” rapper is learning to change the tide of the online chatter to fit her needs. Whether she’s putting her cooking skills on full display each and every Sunday evening for her Soul Food Sundays segment on TikTok or just taking a moment to chat with fans, the entertainer manages to fit in some time to browse online in between her recording sessions for her forthcoming projects.

Now, the musician is using her latest guest feature on Chicago rapper Mello Buckzz’s song “Mouskatool” to subtly clap back haters. Back in January, Latto went head-to-head with an online troll that accused her of wearing the same cheetah print panties. After recording a video of her intimates drawer, revealing her dozens of both washed and unopened leopard print undies, Latto took it a step further by listing the underwear she was photographed in on eBay. Before the listing was removed for violating the site’s used garment policy, it garnered over $100k in bids.

However, bringing the moment full circle, during the video shot for “Mouskatool,” proudly sports another cheetah print thong as her designer denim jeans sit halfway off of her voluptuous derriere. Although Latto doesn’t mention the panties directly, she holds nothing back as she twerks for the film crew, putting the article of clothing on full display.

A Posthumous Gangsta Boo Album Featuring Latto, Run The Jewels, And Juicy J Is Reportedly In The Works

It appears new music from Memphis rap legend Lola “Gangsta Boo” Mitchell is on the way. Today (March 11), TMZ reported that the late rapper’s estate is planning a posthumous album for a tentative release this summer.

According to the publication, former Three 6 Mafia members La Chat and Crunchy Black are set to appear on the album. The album will also reportedly feature collaborations from Run The Jewels, Skepta, and Latto. Before her death, Boo collaborated with Latto on “FTCU,” a track with GloRilla interpolating Boo’s Three 6 Mafia cut, “Tear Da Club Up.”

Fellow Three 6 Mafia members DJ Paul and Juicy J are reportedly planning to contribute to the album’s production, along with Metro Boomin’, BeatKing, and Nick Hook.

The album is apparently planned for release on Boo’s birthday, August 7.

Boo’s mother Veronica Mitchell told TMZ that while she is still mourning the loss of her daughter, it warms her heart to see that her music still lives on.

“My daughter Lola was my only baby girl. I was so proud when she would rap as a little girl. She became the Queen of Memphis and God brought her home to be with her daddy Cedric and her brother Derron,” she said. “I miss her but I know she’s happy with them.”

Latto Admits She’s “Still Finding My Sound”

Her reign isn’t letting up, as Latto is back with another stunning feature. The Georgia Peach has been on a wild ride the last few years, and things are only looking up. She’s amassed several awards, including her most recent honor from Billboard‘s Women in Music event. The 777 hitmaker has been the talk of Hip Hop—and while some of those conversations aren’t flattering, Latto doesn’t let the negativity get under her skin.

At 24 years old, it’s expected for Latto just to be getting her feet wet in the industry. However, she’s been beasting out bars since she was a young kid, even winning Jermaine Dupri’s The Rap Game reality series. After the Lifetime show ended, Latto opted out of receiving a contract with Dupri and instead went her own route. It is paying off—and continuing to do so. It’s no surprise, then, that Wonderland magazine tapped the “Big Energy” star as their cover girl, and as always, Latto served one look after another.

Latto Is Still Growing As An Artist

“I’m still finding my sound,” the rapper admitted to the outlet for its spring 2023 issue. “I think starting so young can be a blessing and a curse: the blessing is that I pretty much reinvent myself every few months. I feel like my music elevates as I mature as a woman.” And it is evolving, indeed. Latto is tearing up the pop culture charts with her Mariah Carey-assisted single as well as her smash hit, “Lottery.”

At Billboard‘s Women in Music event, Latto received the Powerhouse Award. “Megan Thee Stallion won this award, Doja Cat won this award,” she said. “It’s crazy because my peers, I’m fans of my peers, and they’re my peers. [The] Powerhouse award is not just for my team too. Teamwork makes the dream work.” It was a wonderful night for all, except for rumors of a dust-up backstage.

Before Latto accepted her honor, which was introduced by Chlöe, Doechii was given the Rising Star Award. She named several other women under the Rising Star umbrella, including Nicki Minaj. When Latto took to the mic, she gave a speech similar to Doechii, but because she didn’t name Minaj, people said she was shady. Latto called it a “reach” as rumors of an alleged confrontation with Doechii stormed the internet. Check out more photos from Latto’s Wonderland feature above.

What We Know About Latto & 21 Savage

For about two years now, Latto and 21 Savage have been a mystery to us all.  After countless clues and speculations, the Atlanta rappers continue to deny they are in a relationship.  The “Lottery” artist tries to keep her personal life private while the Slaughtergang CEO is never one to talk much.  Hence, who knows if they are together?  However, there’s plenty of evidence that shows at some point they were in each other’s lives.  

First, rumors started in December of 2020 when both artists posted pictures in what looked like the same location.  Neither party confirmed, but fans were adamant they were together.  Two years later, eyes are still on them, and they  both remain that they are not in a relationship.  Here’s what we know about Latto and 21 Savage during  the past few years.  

March 2021-21 Savage Deletes Post

21 Savage reposted a picture of Latto on his Instagram story.  In the photo, it looks like Latto just left the Hermes store as she is walking with a Hermes bag, throwing up the peace sign.  She is all smiles looking at the camera in a comfortable outfit.

The “a lot” rapper couldn’t keep his thoughts to himself as he wanted to express his admiration for her.  He posted the picture with the message: “No makeup [heart eyes emojis] dam u fine it’s only 1 way I can come bout you twin [crying laughing face emoji]”.  Immediately, Savage deleted the post, but it was too late as fans started to speculate.  Many accused them of lying about their relationship as both rappers continue to deny being together.

April 2021-Fans see 21 Savage’s shadow in Latto photo

Latto yet again hit the Gram up with a few alluring photos.  The Queen of Da Souf rapper posted the pictures with the caption, “He love it here.”  It’s interesting she uses the caption as there is clearly a man taking these photos.  In one of the pictures, you can see a shadow of the photographer.

Fans picked up on this and determined the photographer to be 21 Savage.  It is said to be the Atlanta rapper because of the silhouette’s hair.  Latto’s comments were flooded with fans saying it has to be 21.  Obviously, neither party confirmed the rumor.

July 2021-Latto addresses Dream Doll’s “Tryout”

Bronx rapper Dream Doll released a song titled, “Tryouts”.  In this song, she mentions and shows love to many female rappers in Hip Hop.  Latto was included on the list as she had a few lines for the “Big Energy” artist.  She raps, “And Mulatto, yeah, that’s my lil’ honey bun/Asked her how many times she came, she said, ’21 21’.”

Nice wordplay from Dream Doll as she puts together both rappers and also, ends it with Savage’s adlib.  Although Latto didn’t say much about the song, she had nothing but praises for Dream Doll.

“I think Dream Doll is dope, and I’m so proud of her elevation.  She comes from a reality TV show.  I come from a reality TV show so it’s like I’m rooting for her.”

21 Savage has not made a comment on the song either.  Honestly, either Dream Doll knows something, or it’s just rap.  You decide.

October 2021-Happy Birthday from Latto?

On his 29th birthday, 21 Savage received a special birthday cake.  Evidently, the NSFW cake was heart-shaped with a note that read, “Lemme suck that d***”.  Hence, once fans saw this, they immediately pointed the finger to Latto.  The “Bank Account” rapper also showed off his room which was decorated with red balloons and roses as well as lit candles spelling 21.

Per usual, Savage is tight-lipped and did not reveal who did this for him.  Fans are accusing Latto of this stating that the message on the note is something she would say.  The 777 rapper might be keeping this her little secret or maybe she didn’t do this at all.  We can only wonder.

December 2021: 21 Attends Latto Birthday Party

21 Savage attends Latto’s 23rd birthday party.   It was a celebration to say the least as the Clayco County rapper was gifted a brand new Richard Mille watch to go with a brand new Lambroghini.  Furthermore, a fireworks display was also a part of the night.

Fans assumed the “Jimmy Cooks” rapper put together the fireworks show and brought her the lavish gifts. Latto was overwhelmed with excitement as 21 looked on.  He attended the party in theme, dressed as a Cowboy.

March 2022: “Wheelie”

Latto collaborated with 21 Savage for their second song together, “Wheelie”.  They last collaborated on “Pull Up” off Latto’s debut album, Queen of Da Souf.  “Wheelie” comes with a video and is the second single off her sophomore project, 777.

October 2022: Freaknik for 21’s 30th

Even though she was on tour opening up for Lizzo, Latto still managed to attend 21 Savage’s 30th birthday party.  It was a “Freaknik” themed event with many stars in attendance.  After he attended her birthday party, Latto returns the favor.   

December 2022: 21 Savage Denies Relationship

 21 Savage speaks on his status in a conversation on Clubhouse.

“I’ve been hot for a long time.  I don’t do all the antics and s***.  I don’t got a celebrity girlfriend.”

You have to look at the key word here.  The 30 year old rapper said he doesn’t have a “celebrity” girlfriend.  That may mean he does have a girlfriend, but she isn’t famous.  Latto is one of the hottest artists out, so, maybe he isn’t in a relationship with her.  

January 2023: 21 Lil Harold Slips Up

Slaughtergang artist 21 Lil Harold sat down with Hot 107.9 where he got caught up in a sneaky question. He was asked if he has someone in his corner like 21 Savage has Latto.  The young artist somewhat agreed with the radio host before realizing what he did.  MiAsia, the host, continued to ask if 21 Lil Harold thought the rumored couple were cute, to which he agreed.

”They cute together, but….them folks, they single.  They friends.”

February 2023: Rhonnie Lee Confirms; “Sheyaa” tattoo

Celebrity stylist Rhonnie Lee confirmed that Latto and 21 Savage have been dating for years.  Lee has styled many artists and now styles Moneybagg Yo. On Instagram, one user questioned why the two rappers have admitted their relationship to the public.  Lee replied that they love each other.

“They’re together have been for years now! Not something I heard something I KNOW! This woman he loves her & Vice verse!”

She sure seems confident, but no one confirmed this to be true.

Recently, it looks like Latto has a new tattoo.  Behind her ear, she has the word “Sheyaa” tattooed.  21 Savage’s legal first name is Sheyaa.  This is all fans needed to see as they took to social media to discuss the tattoo.  

Let us know if you think Latto and 21 Savage are in a real relationship in the comments.  

Latto Explains Why She Keeps Her Private Life Secret

Not everyone wants to keep their life under wraps these days, but Latto is tight-lipped. It doesn’t seem like the hitmaker can catch a break, at least not on social media. Latto is inundated with harsh critiques, trolls, and mean-spirited naysayers who flood her mentions. This may be why she’s opted to keep her love life private, and during her chat with Extra TV, she explained balancing her public persona and home life.

Recently, there was yet another surge of questions about who Latto was dating. The rapper has curbed questions about her beau for years, only sharing that she’s happily in love. Latto won’t even hint at who it may be, but internet sleuths are doing their best to find out. People are convinced that she’s with 21 Savage, and Moneybagg Yo’s reported hairstylist even seemingly confirmed the information earlier this week.

Latto Is Grateful For Her Life

Latto looked stunning at the Billboard Women in Music Awards, where she was given the Powerhouse honor. While on the red carpet, she chatted with Lindsay about her private life. “I really be waking up like, ‘Is this really my life?’ I’m like, ‘Everybody’s healthy around me — I could buy them whatever they want,’” said the hitmaker. “It’s like, where I’m from, I already made it, baby. We already made it.”

The 777 star also dropped off some advice for women looking to reach similar success. “I would say stay focused,” said Latto. “Look to your peers because nobody understand us like each other. We all share a lot of the same experiences and ups and downs, you know what I’m saying? So I feel like look to each other for unity and just stay focused because, you know, these men being in our DMs or whatever, like, they be trying to you know throw us off our game, but, you know what I’m saying, I ain’t slipping on my pigeon.”

It’s Give & Take

She added, “You got to because everything else is, like ,so exposed to the world. If it’s real, cherish it, keep it close to you.” Check out more from Latto and Rachel Lindsay above.
