Latto Earns “Female Drake” Nickname With New Album

Today, Latto finally unleashed her third studio album, Sugar Honey Iced Tea. The project arrived after plenty of teasing, and so far, fans are impressed. The Atlanta-born performer managed to stay true to her roots, giving listeners what they love her for while still showcasing her growth as an artist. As fans share their reactions to the LP on social media, many have also begun to draw comparisons to Drake. Some are even claiming that Latto’s latest release cements her place as the female version of the Toronto hitmaker.

“Latto album dropped today and you can hear so much Drake and 21 Savage on it […] Literally you can put the rapping on Settle Down over the Major Distribution beat and that sh*t would go so hard,” one fan writes on X. “You can hear the Drake influence all over this album but it sounds so good. Latto might really be the female Drake,” another says.

Latto Unleashes Sugar Honey Iced Tea

Some critics have even accused Drake of writing the album for Latto which, of course, is unfounded. Either way, it’s likely that Latto is taking the comparisons as a huge compliment. After all, she’s stated that she’s a big fan of Drizzy’s on multiple occasions. This isn’t the first time fans have pointed out similarities in their music either.

After she dropped “Big Mama” in June, fans insisted they could hear Drake’s influence from a mile away. At the time, she made it clear that she was flattered, dubbing him “the GOAT.” When Drake did his unexpected 100-gigabyte dump earlier this week, he even unveiled a track with Latto, which quickly became a fan favorite.

Latto Fans Clock Potential Disses Against Ice Spice, Nicki Minaj And More On Her New Album

Latto’s new album Sugar Honey Iced Tea is a very fun ride, and although it caught the tail end of the summer, we’re sure it’ll heat up playlists for the rest of the year. Even though it’s only been in our hands for a couple of hours, though, fans were quick to compile and break down all the spiciest moments from the bombastic tracklist. Moreover, in their research, fans found some potential subtle (and not-so-subtle) disses against the likes of Ice Spice, Nicki Minaj, and Coi Leray. Of course, it’s important to note these aren’t explicit enough shots to really cause an uproar in “Like That” fashion, and that they could be about other rappers or just the rap game in general. So, take this speculation with a grain of salt, but the Atlanta femcee surely came through with some fiery lines either way.

For example, there’s “Settle Down” and Latto’s dismissive remarks about an unnamed rapper. “Got these b***hes waiting for me to drop / Know they probably waiting on me to flop / You was just a fan before you popped / I don’t even know you, how we opps?Thousand-dollar steak and a b***h think we gon’ beef for free? / Lap dog better not think she getting off the leash with me.”

Latto’s Possible Disses On Sugar Honey Iced Tea

Also, there are multiple possible references to Nicki Minaj, Ice Spice, and Coi Leray on Latto’s cut “S/O To Me.” “It clearly doesn’t matter if you younger or double my age,” she possibly spits against Roman. “Bye sis, funny thing about it, you can’t look me in my eye, sis” and “Ice is just water when it melts” are two pretty suggestive and by no means accidental shots at Big Mama’s Bronx rival. Finally, there’s “Don’t play coy with me, you know what you headed for,” which needs no explanation.

Some More Alleged Shots

As many fans have noticed, these shots may not be super explicit… But it’s impossible to look at them and think that Latto didn’t know exactly what she was doing when she dropped them. What’s more important: the intent with which these bars emerged or the decision to drop them with their implications in mind, regardless of whether folks intended them? Nevertheless, the “Housekeeping Knows” artist has way more great material on Sugar Honey Iced Tea, so make sure to check it out and not hyper-fixate on the alleged beef.

Latto Drops Highly Anticipated Third Album ‘Sugar Honey Iced Tea’

image001 (1)

ATL-based Grammy-nominated rapper Latto, also known as Big Mama, released her much-anticipated third studio album, Sugar Honey Iced Tea, today via RCA Records.

The 21-track album, reflecting Latto’s Georgia Southern roots, showcases her signature raw and witty lyricism over magnetic beats. The project features collaborations with top Southern artists, including Megan Thee Stallion, Ciara, Coco Jones, Young Nudy, Flo Milli, Teezo Touchdown, and more.

Latto And Megan Thee Stallion Reunite As One Heck Of A Tag Team On ‘Squeeze’

Latto and Megan Thee Stallion have so far made for one heck of a tag team. The two Southern rappers first paired up on “Budget” from Megan Thee Stallion’s second album Traumazine, while Latto invited the Houston Hottie to join her on the remix of her own hit single, “Sunday Service,” alongside Flo Milli. They reunite on Latto’s new album, Sugar Honey Iced Tea, on the song “Squeeze,” making Meg the only artist to appear twice on the album and one of the five non-Atlanta artists to appear.

Their team-up is unsurprising; they’re both from the South, they’ve both got reputations for being girls’ girls within hip-hop, they pride themselves on their lyrical skills, and they rank pretty high on the list of Nicki Minaj’s least-favorite people (right under Cardi B, who is, presumably, a lot of the reason she doesn’t like them after both collaborated with her mortal enemy, a high crime in her mind). They’ve also both got a fondness for twerking at their shows and challenged each other to a friendly twerk-off during Megan’s recent tour. Meg and Latto expressed plenty of excitement about their latest collab on Twitter (never calling it “X”), with Meg also revealing her video for “Mamushi” is on the way.

You can listen to “Squeeze” above.
