Latto is standing ten toes down after sparking controversy by declaring Lil Kim the greatest female rapper of all time.
The question arose during a recent episode of Complex’s GOAT Talk featuring the “Sunday Service” hitmaker and her younger sister, Brooklyn Nikole.
While Latto initially agreed with her sister giving her the crown, she eventually named her “real” pick.
“I am the GOAT though,” Latto insisted. “But the GOAT is Lil’ Kim, for sure. [She’s] going to forever be a staple in not only rap but female rap.” Latto cited Kim’s “fashion icon” status and praised her “ timeless music.”
Latto continued, insisting Lil Kim is a queen” on and off-camera. “I love that her,” she said before referencing “Big Momma Thang,” the NYC icon’s 1996 song. “And she’s big mama, too.”
However, her remarks divided Hip-Hop fans, especially the Barbz, Nicki Minaj’s devoted fanbase.
“As much as they say Lil Kim is who they look up to and how much of a “goat” she is, why aren’t they asking her to do features but begging Nicki??? Big Difference hits hard today,” one Nicki Minaj fan shared.
“Y’all can never erase Lil Kim’s imprint on the industry,” another user added. “She created the entire foundation that these girls stand on. Get over it.”
“The only people mad about latto calling Lil Kim the GOAT of female rap are the bitter barbs,” a third person remarked.“Everyone else knows latto was spitting nothing but FACTSSSSS. There’s no Nicki Minaj without LIL KIM.”
Nonetheless, Latto stood her ground. She took to Instagram amid the backlash, advising, “I said what I said.”
