Trina and Latto Perform ‘CLAP,’ A Southern Strip Club Anthem

Trina has already established herself as one of the most well-known female rappers from Miami. After collaborating with Latto for her “Bitch From Da Souf” remix in 2019, the pair reunite for “Clap,” a tune with a matching visual geared solely at strip clubs and having fun on your own terms.

The video, directed by Jon J., features the Miami icon and her up-and-coming counterpart making money rain from the ceiling. Dancers head to the pole and demonstrate why they’re some of the best athletes on the planet. The ready-made hymn, produced by Hitmaka, Honorable C-Note, Nyrell, and Billyracxx, arrives as Latto continues to bask in the sun of her 777 album.

Latto’s Rise To Stardom

The Georgia rapper’s growth as a performer and headliner has been influenced by other powerful women in Hip Hop. Latto credited Cardi B as a showman who showed her how a stage show requires more than a rapper and a DJ in a recent interview with Audacity.

Latto also commented on what she learnt along the way, a year and a half after “Bitch From Da Souf” aided her journey to popular stardom.

“I’ve learned to not be so hard on myself,” she stated. “I second guess everything and the songs that I second-guessed or the lines that I second-guessed, people love ’em. So it’s like, don’t be so hard on yourself. It’s still fun…I get to wake up and do what I wanna do and create whatever’s on my mind. That’s fun, that’s the beauty in it. So don’t let it become a job.”

/4 Comments/in /by

Kodak Black’s engineer has fired back at Latto for her male rapper claims. The headline of Latto’s claims went viral on social media. Latto claimed that one of the featured artists in her new all, “777” made sexual advances to her in her DM. 

Not long after the claim, Latto released the tracklist of “777”. Kodak Black responded to Latto’s claims and said he wasn’t the male rapper Latto was referring to. Now, Kodak Black’s engineer, Dyryk, took to Instagram to respond to Latto’s “Male Rapper Claims”. 

Kodak Black’s Engineer, Dyryk Replies Latto

“Let me fill you in on what this bullshit with @latto777 is all about,” Dyryk wrote. “She asked for a feature a while back. We charged her our normal rate and she wanted a swap. Since her verse won’t really do anything for us, we asked for a swap for our female artist and charged her substantially less. She declined and said she was going to not use the record. Out of the blue she decided to accept a higher fee and still not offer a swap for our artist. Talk Talk about empowering fellow female rapper.”

 

He added, “Now she’s on some bullshit that she was made uncomfortable And holding up your album? I know you’re not talking about us. You were on your diva shit when no one is getting in the car playing your records. You’re whole album had legal issues (I’m on the email chain) stop tryna pull this fictitious fueled empathy card for sales.

“You try to assassinate my brothers character, I’m gonna destroy yours. And that’s why she won’t say a name. She’s full of shit. She knows if she keeps things general and up for assumption she’s gonna get her pity party.”

Speaking further, Dyryk said “DM’s us non stop asking for a feature and then makes it seem like we’re pressed?” he said. “Ain’t gonna let you lie on us like that for sympathy. Everyone is always super friendly when it comes to asking for a verse. Just say you’re upset that we didn’t like you’re ‘Super Gremlin’ remix.”

Kodak Black’s response to Latto’s claims

Kodak Black had taken to Instagram prior to Dyryk’s comments to respond Latto’s claims. He said, “That bitch was not talking about me, period. Bitch ain’t got no kinda screenshot, no kinda nothing that say I was tryna text a bitch, or I was tryna get some pussy, or I was tryna be on any of that shit homie, any of that shit boy. And keep it Z homie, I been had that number years ago, I been hollering at that shit years ago before that shit was even popping like that. So kill that shit.

“Any bitch DMs I jump in they fire back, homie. I’m talking about viral bitches, like bitches with real money, bitches with way more money. What the fuck you talking about? I got bitches for real.”
