New Rap Songbirds Led By Latto Trade Bars Feat Flo Milli, Maiya The Don, Monaleo & Mello Buckzz In Explosive All-Female Cypher In Celebration Of Latto's XXL Cover.
"After enjoying a fruitful year notching another Billboard Hot 100 hit with “Put It on the Floor” and an explosive remix with Cardi B — not to mention a chart-topping feature on Jung Kook’s “Seven” — Latto looks to punctuate her 2023 with more wins. On Tuesday (Nov. 28), she kicked off XXL‘s first all-women cypher featuring Flo Milli, Maiya The Don, Monaleo and Mello Buckzz.Dubbed the XXL Cypher Lab, Latto handpicked her fellow MCs and allowed them to pounce over the thumping production of Pooh Beatz. “Yeah, he talk to me through wires like Kanye West/ Ha, Damn his girl on fire, I ain’t f—ing Swizz,” Latto spews at the end of the fiery exhibition.Covering the latest issue of XXL, Latto revealed her thoughts on fans engineering rap feuds because of their undying loyalty to their favorite rappers.“I think it really don’t be a problem until we let fans, Stans, whatever you want to call them, like the outsiders once they get in the mix. I think that’s what stirs the pot,” Latto said. “Because it’s like, we will all be fans of each other and commenting and following each other, whatever, but then once they get to comparing, they will turn us against each other, which is very weak-minded of us as female rappers.”In 2022, Latto was embroiled in a back-and-forth with Nicki Minaj after the two traded subliminals online. In an interview with Billboard last year, Latto expressed how “difficult” and “disappointing” the Twitter spat was.“It’s difficult navigating through situations like that because there’s a disconnect,” Latto said. “I will look at myself as a fan of someone, and they will view [me] in a whole different light. It’s disappointing. You just got to take it to the chin and keep pushing.”Watch XXL’s first all-women cypher, spearheaded by Latto, below." - Billboard.com
