Latto Supports Sister Brooklyn Nikole’s Beauty Launch

by

Atlanta-based rapper Latto has yet another gig up her sleeve after venturing into the world of secondhand selling via eBay. To support her younger sister Brooklyn Nikole’s beauty launch, Latto modeled in lip glosses and liners to promote the release of the collection. Beauty by Brooklyn debuted its first line of products on February 14th.

Brooklyn Nikole is a model and influencer. At only 20 years old, she is now venturing into the entrepreneurial field. She first started modeling through her Instagram in November 2017. She gained further attention as an ambassador for My Pajama Boutique in August 2018. Beauty by Brooklyn offers vegan, cruelty-free makeup. Although the collection only includes 5 products, the prices are well worth it. For $55, the BBB Bundle Box contains each shade of lip gloss offered in the collection. The four shades include Bubble Bath, which is a cool pink shade that Latto can be seen modeling. The second gloss is Champagne which is a light nude shade. For a basic clear gloss, there is Glaze and finally, Mousse a beautiful deep brown shade. If you are only interested in just one gloss, they are individually priced at $16.

For now, the collection only offers one lip liner in the shade Hazel. The lip liner is priced at $11, confirming that the entire collection is super affordable. The four lip products offered are completely pairable with any skin tone, offering a super light nude shade to a dark brown hue. The brand packaging is minimal yet aesthetic, with touches of rose gold on the boxes and lip gloss handles. It is unclear whether the packaging is sustainably made, but since the products are vegan, we can speculate the same for the packaging.

Latto shared her support for the Beauty by Brooklyn brand on Instagram, giving us a look into her big sister nature. Latto celebrating her sister’s brand comes before the release of her new single “Lottery” featuring LU KALA. The song is a disco-infused pop melody that is sure to rise to the top of the charts. It is now available to stream via Spotify and Apple Music. Beauty by Brooklyn is available to shop now as well on BeautybyBrooklyn.com.

Latto & LU KALA Win The “Lottery” On Their First Collaborative Track: Stream

by

With so many female rap artists on the rise right now, it can be hard to stand out. With her latest release, 24-year-old Latto is certainly proving that she’s had no problem carving out her own lane. On the upbeat, “Lottery,” she works with Congolese-Canadian artist LU KALA over a disco-infused beat that’s sure to remain in rotation well into the summer months.

The Ohio-born starlet teased the track on Instagram a few weeks ago. At the time, she told followers that “pop Latto [is] loading,” and boy did she deliver. While the beat is a far departure from what the “Wheelie” hitmaker usually rhymes over, her lyrics are as raunchy as ever.

“Ooh, you lookin’ at a centrefold / Playboy bunny, wanna take me home?” she flirtatiously asks on the second verse. “Bad bitch from head to toe / Tryna fold me up and lick it like an envelope.” On the chorus, KALA’s voice shines as she sings about unwrapping in the sheets and revealing dirty fantasies.

“Lottery” marks Latto’s first release of the year, following a triumphant run throughout 2022. In December, she gave us “Another Nasty Song” – a previously unreleased title that fell victim to her massive leak. Prior to that, we heard her collaborate with GloRilla and the late Gangsta Boo on “FTCU” as well as Chlöe on “For the Night.”

The quick-witted rhymer is also approaching the one-year anniversary of her debut album. At this time, it remains unclear when her sophomore effort will arrive, but fans certainly hope to see a strong roster of collaborators again. On 777, she tapped the likes of 21 Savage, Lil Wayne, Childish Gambino, and more to aid her.

Stream Latto’s first release of 2023, “Lottery” on Spotify or Apple Music below. Afterward, let us know if you’ll be adding the single to your playlist or not in the comments. Make sure to check out HNHH again later for more song recommendations.

Quotable Lyrics:

You gotta work for this, can’t purchase this
Gotta prove yourself and show me what your purpose is
Show me that you’re really worthy of my services
I keep a n*gga on my arm where my purses is

Latto And Lu Kala Lay Down The Rules Of The Game On Their New Single, ‘Lottery’

by

Latto is back with another dance floor anthem. On her latest track, “Lottery,” she lays down the law with persistent men, reminding them that she only accepts advances with the stroke of luck.

Joined by singer Lu Kala as the two sing and rap over a groovy, disco-inspired beat, the pair display magical musical chemistry, while delivering an early contender for the song of summer.

“If I let you put your hands all over me / If I let you unwrap all this in the sheets / If I tell you all my dirty fantasies / You won the lottery, you won the lottery,” sings Lu Kala on the song’s chorus.

On the song, Latto delivers scorching verses, rife with lottery puns, spinning off the rules of the game.

“I need a real boss / Somebody who don’t care what the bill cost / Smooth skin, thick thighs, you can feel on / If he hit this then he hit the Mega Million / Play him like a scratch-off, if he gettin’ lucky / Jackpot, baby, if I ever let you touch me,” she raps.

While this continues a hot streak of bangers for Latto, Lu Kala, who has been putting out music since 2018, is looking forward to seeing where this inevitable hit takes her.

“Get ready to see this Black Pop Stars face everywhere!!!,” said Kala in a tweet ahead of the song’s release.

Remy Ma Avoids Question About Latto & Nicki Minaj Beefing Over Grammys

by

When Latto and Nicki Minaj were firing off tweets to one another, Remy Ma was a spectator like the rest of us. The rapper knows all too well what it is like beefing with the Queens star. These days, she’s putting that past tension behind her. Their animosity began sometime in the mid-2000s, and some believe it all stemmed from lyrics about who was the true “queen of Rap.” Whatever the case, things quickly unraveled, and Remy unleashed “ShEther,” a diss track that stunned Hip Hop.

Nicki and Remy are mothers and wives pushing forward in their careers. Although neither brings up their past rift, the “Lean Back” hitmaker often faces questions. This occurred more recently during her chat with The Jason Lee Show, where the host wanted to pick Remy’s brain.

Lee mentioned that Minaj and Latto’s fallout began over whether or not the Grammys would classify the legend’s song as Rap. Remy was asked if it mattered, and she told Lee he would have to ask one of the ladies involved. However, she did mention her nominations, stating that she lost out to The Black Eyed Peas and, later, Chance The Rapper. Remy also noted Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion, and (finally) Nas have Grammys, so The Recording Academy may be shifting.

Additionally, she said “it’s a voting system” that isn’t necessarily based on numbers or a more defined structure. “Once you get nominated, you’re a part of the committee. You can vote, but a lot of times, it seems like whoever is signed to the label with the most people that are on the board, that’s who usually wins. You’re obviously gonna vote for your artists.”

Latto Dubs Herself A ‘Swiftie’ As She Posts A Hilarious Selfie With Taylor Swift At The 2023 Grammys

Latto was nominated for Best New Artist and Best Melodic Rap Performance (“Big Energy (Live)”) at the 2023 Grammys over the weekend. While she didn’t take home a win this year, she clearly still had a blast interacting with other stars and musicians at the event.

One of which was Taylor Swift, who Latto recently uploaded a selfie with to Twitter. It’s also a silly one too, as Latto poses with her tongue out and Swift does a cheek kiss. “Swiftie,” Latto captioned the post with champagne glass and heart emojis.

As anyone who was watching the ceremony knows, the celebs were partying hard in full force during the event. Swift frequently drew attention from the camera as she danced and did a similar pose with Bad Bunny and did some other silly wine-mom-energy moves with Jack Antonoff. Oh yeah, and she sparked the internet after interacting with her ex, Harry Styles.

It’s technically not the first time Latto’s been associated with Swift either. In April of last year, a YouTuber mashed up the “Big Energy” instrumental with Taylor Swift’s “22” acapella. The downside is that it’s not Taylor’s re-recorded version, but it’s still a fun remix worth checking out.

Here’s hoping Latto has a chance of making it onto Reputation or 1989 (Taylor’s Versions) in the future.

Latto Heats Up 21 Savage Romance Rumours With Spicy New Tattoo

by

For several months now, Latto has let the world know that she’s happily seeing with a man. At the same time, she doesn’t want to share that part of her life with the public. Of course, that hasn’t stopped the rumour mill from turning. Specifically, several social media sleuths believe that the 777 artist is romancing with her “Big Wheelie” collaborator 21 Savage.

The two have known each other for several years now. “[21 Savage] is one of the male Atlanta artists running it. Then I’m the female running it, hands down,” the 24-year-old declared last March. At the same time, she recalled opening a concert for him when she was only 15 or 16 years old.

Since then, they’ve worked together musically in various capacities, and are often seen attending the same parties. Photos or videos of them turning up together have yet to surface online. Still, that hasn’t stopped fans from speculating about the possibility of their relationship. Latto has made it clear that she prefers to keep her love life private because it’s real, and not a PR stunt.

At the same time, the SAVAGE MODE II hitmaker denied having a “celebrity girlfriend” during a recent Clubhouse session. Both rappers are obviously playing coy about things. Over the weekend, however, the Ohio-based blonde revealed that she got some new ink seemingly dedicated to her beau.

Behind her ear, Latto looks to have added “Sheyaa,” or 21 Savage’s name to her collection of ink. Of course, neither party has officially confirmed that they’re locked in romantically. Still, this seems to be a strong indication we might see them go public in the near future.

Latto’s love life has her fans feeling undeniably curious. Seeing as she’s been holding them over with tons of new music lately though, they’ve held back their complaints about her private romance. Among the fashionista’s latest releases are her appearance on bLAck pARty’s “BOMB” remix and her own reimagining of SZA’s “Smoking On My Ex Pack.”

Additionally, her verses on GloRilla’s “FTCU” (also featuring the late Gangsta Boo) and Chlöe’s “For the Night” earned her plenty of flowers. As for solo titles, the last ones we’ve heard from Latto are “Another Nasty Song” at the end of 2022, and before that, “P*SSY” arrived last July. Listen to those here, and here, respectively and let us know what you think of the rapper’s new tattoo in the comments.

Latto Gets Candid About Her “Real Relationship,” Explains Why She Keeps It Private

by

When you reach celebrity status, little of your life remains private. In today’s digital age, famous faces can hear critiques of them on every social media platform loud and clear, which is why many of them choose to keep certain things to themselves. Specifically, romantic relationships seem to be an area of issue for many stars. Among them is Latto, who addressed how she handles this during a recent interview.

While chatting with Atlanta’s Hot 107.9, the “For the Night” collaborator broke down her decision to keep her love life out of the spotlight. “I’m smooth with it,” she said of being able to not dish about her beau to the media.

“This is gonna sound so cliche, but it’s the truth. Everything about my life is to be picked apart by social media,” Latto went on. “I gotta hear everybody’s two cents and opinions on something that don’t got nothing to do with them.”

She then assured listeners that her relationship is “real,” and “not like PR stunts.” Because of this, she’s even more serious about “[protecting] it.”

As AllHipHop notes, the rumour mill previously suggested that Latto and 21 Savage are dating. However, the Saint Laurent Don markedly denied having a celebrity girlfriend during a Clubhouse session last month. Of course, this doesn’t necessarily mean anything as he could simply be protecting their privacy too.

In the past, the artists have worked together on tracks like “Pull Up” and “Wheelie.” Additionally, the Ohio-born fashionista has publicly given her rumoured man his flowers on more than one occasion.

“[21 Savage] is one of the male Atlanta artists running it, and then I’m the female running it, hands down,” she braggadociously declared last March. “I think it’s just that Atlanta chemistry. I’ve opened up for 21 way back in the day. I was probably 15, 16, or something like that.”

Fans have always been curious about Latto’s relationship status. Lately, though, a particular few internet trolls have been digging through her thirst traps, and subsequently called the rap diva out for sporting the same pair of panties in two separate photos.

Read her reaction to the online drama here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.
