Latto Claps Back At Claims Of Shading Ice Spice

Latto clapped back at a fan who insinuated that she was copying Ice Spice. The comment came after Latto struck a pose resembling Ice Spice’s signature move which appears on the cover of her debut EP Like...?

“YOUUUU posted this… so YOU’RE creating the narrative!” the fan wrote.

Latto responded writing: “Every time y’all accuse me of copying folks ima clear it up. Nun mo nun less.”

“I don’t like how y’all take my tweets & make them fit ur weak a– narratives,” she added in a separate tweet.

Ice Spice seemingly responded to the shade by posting a selfie video on her Instagram Story vibing to Nicki Minaj’s verse from “Make Love.”

“I don’t see her/Bitch I’m the greatest, no Kendrick and no Sia/I’m the iPhone, you the Nokia/Everybody know you jealous, bitch it’s so clear,” were the Nicki lines playing in the background of Ice Spice’s video.

Latto and Ice Spice seemingly have no beef with one another. But, fans are theorizing that the 777 creator might have an issue with the rising Bronx rapper. During a red carpet back in January, a Billboard reporter asked Latto to finish the lyrics to Ice Spice’s “Bikini Bottom.” The question puzzled Latto, who stumbled trying to figure out the lyrics and asked for help. Fans thought she looked shady not knowing the lyrics since she is frequently on TikTok and at the time “Bikini Bottom” was a trending sound.
