LATTO CAN’T EVEN IMAGINE BEEFING WITH ICE SPICE: ‘WOULD SHE EVEN WANT THAT?’

Latto may have made some subtle jabs at Ice Spice in recent times, but she has no plans to actually go bar for bar with the Bronx native in an actual feud.

The Atlanta rapper touched on the beef during a new conversation with Billboard earlier this month.

When asked if she’d engage in a real beef with Ice a la Kendrick Lamar and Drake, Latto said: I mean this in the most understanding [way]: I’m a fan of music. I’m not one of them ‘lyrical only, anything else is bullshit’ people. There’s so many sub-genres that I’m a fan of — like mosh pit-type music; when Drake is in his melodic bag, I like that type shit — and all of it is still Hip Hop.”

She continued: “If I was to do [a battle], it would have to be with somebody I feel like I’ma go tit for tat with. I really don’t mean it as shade. Would she even want to do that? I feel like she’s doing her in her lane. It’s two different types of vibes. I don’t even think she gives me like, ‘Oh, she wants to engage in an actual rap beef.’”

Back in February, Ice Spice took aim at Latto on her song “Think U the Shit (Fart)” where she rapped: “I got my foot on they necks, I can’t let up/ She all on the floor, told her get up.”

In turn, Latto struck back at Ice Spice on “Sunday Service” when she rapped: “Think I’m the shit, bitch, I know it, ho/ Jesus walked on water, I got ice boilin’ though.”

The song includes other less obvious stabs at her contemporary including: “These bitches corny, soon as monkey see, then you know monkey do/ Do you rap or do you tweet?/ ‘Cause I can’t tell, get in the booth, bitch” and “I just want a one on one, don’t know why she so nervous.”

Latto also threatened a confrontation if she and Spice are booked on the same bill: “Every time y’all book me with them hoes, it’s gon’ be big drama.”

For her part, Ice Spice explained that “Think U the Shit (Fart)” was an “homage” to female rappers past and present — “even the bitches I’m beefing with.”

However, Ice Spice later admitted that the song is indeed about Latto.
