Latto Showboats And Pops A ‘Wheelie’ With 21 Savage In Their Boastful Video

by

It’s been a little over 18 months since Latto dropped her major-label debut album Queen Of Da Souf. The project arrived after she earned a spot on the 2020 XXL Freshman Class list. Altogether, Queen Of Da Souf helped push the Atlanta rapper into the spotlight and she’s absolutely made the most of it. Her 2021 single “Big Energy” has grown to be her most successful track so far. Now, Latto is looking to match the song’s success with her latest single, “Wheelie.” The track arrives with a guest verse from fellow Atlanta native 21 Savage and a thrilling new video.

The new visual is filled with motorbikes and luxury vehicles doing donuts which is fitting action for the new song. Elsewhere, Latto shows off her dance moves and later stands tall and confident with 21 Savage as they flex some muscle through boastful raps. The new track is not the duo’s first record together as Latto previously recruited 21 Savage for “Pull Up” from her Queen Of Da Souf album.

The new record comes after Latto delivered song strong guest verses over the last year. They include a remix of “Sorry Not Sorry,” her most recent effort with Atlanta rapper Omeretta The Great, as well as records with Toosii, Don Toliver, and Lil Durk. 21 Savage, on the other hand, has recently laid verses with JID, King Von, Rick Ross, and more.

Clayco native Latto is continuously earning her stripes in her industry as a heavy hitter in the game. The rapper’s consistency, rap flow, and originality have charted her on Billboard and won the rapper several awards.

As Latto is still beating the odds on the mic, the 23-year-old rapper hinted at a new collaboration in the works with a fellow emcee. According to her post on social media, the female lyricist explained that the guest on her single titled “Wheelie” is a parent, has attended the Met Gala, and has a diamond record.

Fans immediately swarmed the comments believing that the guest appearance on the track could be Cardi B. “Probs Cardi. Sounds like a beat she’d use. I can hear her chasing the beat already,” one fan wrote.

“She’s been interacting with Cardi alot and this sound like a Cardi-type beat,” another fan commented.

While some fans believe that the feature could be coming from Cardi, others speculate that the feature could be coming from Nicki Minaj. “We all know Latto a die-hard fan of Nicki and always wanted a collab with Nicki,” one fan wrote.

While many are excited about this upcoming collab, fans are missing that Latto never stated the rapper was a female. This also leaves the options open for a male emcee to hop on the collaboration.

Who do you think Latto is teaming up with for her upcoming single? We will all find out this upcoming Friday, March 11th.

Latto Explains Why Her ‘Sorry Not Sorry’ Verse Didn’t Diss 21 Savage, Ludacris Or Other Atlanta Rappers

Omeretta The Great’s new song “Sorry Not Sorry” stirred up some trouble in the Atlanta area, prompting responses from the likes of both Latto and T.I., as well as a social media debate about which residents of the surrounding areas get to claim the city. Incidentally, when Latto chimed in, she was apparently already in the studio with Omeretta, recording her verse for the song’s remix — a verse that has since sparked a new round of debate thanks to Latto name-checking a number of artists who claim Atlanta but aren’t technically from the city proper.

Latto apparently noticed some chatter on Twitter claiming that she was dissing artists like 21 Savage, Ciara, Ludacris, and Migos, saying that they aren’t really from Atlanta — even though she freely admits her own hometown in Clayton County isn’t within city limits either. She addressed the controversy head-on, tweeting, “Y’all I’m not dissing the people I named on the verse!!! I’m saying so Migos is not Atlanta?? 21, Ciara, Ludacris etc because they technically not from the city but helped make it is what it is!”

Despite Latto’s verse technically refuting the claims Omeretta makes on the original song, the upstart rapper praised her collaborator, telling followers on Twitter, “When Latto sent the verse back I couldn’t even text no mo I had to call like girl wtf why u do that track like that.”

Perhaps Latto’s verse will finally settle the debate after she pointed out the contributions of so many “out-of-towners” in helping grow the city’s rap footprint into what it is today. You can check out her verse below.

Latto Lends A Supportive Verse To Omeretta The Great’s Controversial Track, ‘Sorry Not Sorry’

by

Atlanta rapper Omeretta The Great is a skillful artist who’s spent quite some time working her way up in the hip-hop scene. Last month, she took a gamble with her controversial song “Sorry Not Sorry.” The track aimed to set the record straight on what cities are and are not considered “Atlanta.” “College Park is not Atlanta / Lithonia is not Atlanta,” she raps on the song. “Clayco is not Atlanta / Decatur is not Atlanta / Gwinnett is not Atlanta / Roswell is not Atlanta / Forest Park is not Atlanta / Lilburn is not Atlanta.”

The song sparked plenty of controversy on social media as many debated whether Omeretta’s claims were correct. One of those who responded was fellow Atlanta rapper Latto who actually said Omeretta “said the truth tbh” on the song. Now, Latto has lent her talents to the rising rapper as she remixed “Sorry Not Sorry.” Just like Omeretta, Latto shows pride and love for her hometown while namedropping acts like Migos, 21 Savage, Ciara, Ludacris, and Outkast as well as cities like Clay County and Decatur.

While Latto may be in support of Omeretta’s song, T.I. had a different take about “Sorry Not Sorry.” He did so through an indirect response on Instagram. “Respectfully…. Only fools dispute facts,” he captioned a picture of Atlanta’s metro area.

Latto Sides With Omeretta The Great In Her Atlanta Controversy: ‘She Said The Truth’

The fallout from Omerette The Great’s “Sorry Not Sorry” continues to settle as more Atlanta notables weigh in on the upstart rapper’s declarations about who’s really from the city. After T.I. “respectfully” offered his thoughts — along with a helpful visual aid — now, another of Georgia’s rising stars, Latto, has entered the debate. Surprisingly, she agrees with Omeretta but says it’s not the scandal so many people are making it out to be.

Latto, who recently issued her own pledge of allegiance to her hometown with the single “Soufside,” posted a TikTok quoting a line from Omeretta’s controversial song outro. “Clay Co ishnot Alanna,” she wrote in the caption as she doubled over with laughter in the video. When one follower asked whether the song was “really that big of a deal,” Latto replied, “It’s not a big deal lol clay co is the south we not the city she said the truth tbh.”

Clay County, Georgia, is certainly not part of Atlanta’s metropolitan area, which seems to be the common factor in all the places Omeretta names in “Sorry Not Sorry.” “College Park is not Atlanta / Lithonia is not Atlanta / Clayco is not Atlanta / Decatur is not Atlanta / Gwinnett is not Atlanta / Roswell is not Atlanta / Forest Park is not Atlanta / Lilburn is not Atlanta,” she declares. The song went viral as people from Atlanta and the surrounding areas debated the merits of her arguments — which may have been the whole point.
