Latto wasn’t having any of it. During her “Sugar Honey Iced Tea” album release party, a fan boldly called her “bae,” only to be hilariously shut down by the rapper.
In a clip that’s making waves on social media, the fan tried to get Latto’s attention, but it didn’t go as planned. She shot back with a simple but cutting, “Bae??” and then continued with her business, leaving the fan visibly flustered.
The scene quickly went viral, with fans flooding the comments with jokes. One user said, “My boy turned the camera around and looked like Nick Cannon in ‘Love Don’t Cost a Thing.'” Another quipped, “He looks like the one black video game character in the 90s.”
The playful jabs didn’t end there. A third commenter wrote, “Feels like harassment when you’re not attracted to them.” Clearly, Latto’s straightforward response struck a chord with her audience.
Meanwhile, Latto was celebrating the release of her new album, ‘Sugar Honey Iced Tea.’ Dropped on August 9, it features big names like Young Nudy, Hunxho, Coco Jones, Megan Thee Stallion, Ciara, Mariah the Scientist, Teezo Touchdown, Cardi B, and Flo Milli.
Latto herself expressed that she feels her work stands out in the industry. Speaking to VIBE, she said, “I feel like what I’m doing has not been done before, so let’s start there. [Aesthetically], I’ve been pulling from Mariah Carey, Beyoncé, and Lil’ Kim. [Musically], I’ve been pulling from Kelis, but obviously with a Southern hip-hop twist.”
She added, “They have very feminine energy, but masculine in the sense of confidence. I feel like they were boss bi**hes. It just gave ‘I’m that girl.’ When you hear and see them in that prime era, it gave, ‘I’m here to stay.'”
The party and Latto’s interaction with the fan provided plenty of entertainment, adding to the buzz around her new album.
Latto’s quick-witted response at her album release party has amused fans and added to the excitement around her new album ‘Sugar Honey Iced Tea.’
