Latto has announced her new album, Sugar Honey Iced Tea, and is releasing a trailer for the forthcoming release. Hitting social media, Latto released a trailer for the album, narrated by The Dungeon Family’s Big Rube, and features the heavy energy of the classic film ATL.
You can see the trailer below. The album is set for August 9, setting her up one week after her rival Ice Spice.
Ice Spice has delivered her debut album, Y2K, but her comments in her Rolling Stone cover shoot raise eyebrows. With a standing beef with Latto, Ice Spice revealed she doesn’t know the issue’s root.
“I feel like if we ever spoke and I asked her ‘what’s the issue?’ it’d be like a blank stare. It’d really be no issue whatsoever. Especially from me,” Ice Spice says. “I can understand a friendly competition, but I just feel like at this point it’s a joke that she’s just dragged out, and it’s just not even funny.
“Like, bro, ‘Think U the Shit’ is from January. You’re going to post a piece of shit cake to announce something that’s good news for you? But it is kind of a compliment because you’re taking something that’s supposed to be a fun moment for you and you’re making it about me… again.”
Earlier this year, Latto put Ice Spice on notice that she wants all the smoke. After Ice Spice confirmed her “Think U Da Shit (Fart)” single was a diss to Latto, the “Put It On Da Floor” rapper fired back with “Sunday Service.”
Oop #IceSpice wants to know why she was in the back of #Latto’s “weak ass snippet”
“Twenty black Suburbans, we pull up like Sunday Service I just want a one on one, don’t know why she so nervous”
In the second verse, there may also be a jab at Nicki Minaj, who had an insane tweeting spree after Megan Thee Stallion’s “Hiss“:
Do you rap or do you tweet? ‘Cause I can’t tell, get in the booth, bitch Stop all that motherfuckin’ yellin’, ho ‘Cause I ain’t buyin’ what you’re sellin’, ho
And then turned her attention right back to Ice Spice, flipping the “Fart” hook back on her:
Think I’m the shit? Bitch, I know it, ho Jesus walked on water, I got ice boilin’ though
