Latto

“I drink hella water to be honest.”

“Sometimes I don't even be realizing what's really going on. So sometimes you just gotta take a step back and soak it all in.”

“Nicki Minaj is my ultimate dream collaboration. That would be number one. I love Megan Thee Stallion. I would love to do a song with Megan, Cardi B.”

“I see myself getting into brand partnerships, acting, modeling, and just branching off. I feel like music is my way in the door. And then from there, it's up. I'm going to have so many different things going on. I definitely idolize Rihanna's career path.”

“I don't put too much thought into anything. I really just be myself.”

“I really don't feel like I'm competing with nobody. Just because you the same gender and same age as someone, I don't feel like that means you competition.”

“I bought my dad a bustdown Rolex for Christmas, and I had got my mama kitchen remodeled. My daddy cried, my mama cried, I cried.”

“Everybody knows Nicki is my favorite, you can go look on the Internet, I got interviews talking about standing in line for 'Pink Friday.' I got a fake Barbie chain... I was obsessed with Nicki.”

“I was always popular 'cause I've been rapping since I was 10 years old. Where I am from, I already had songs that I would perform at the parties in the city and like, pep rallies at school. So, I was always popular because I am famous where I am from.”

“I've been wearing glitter probably since I seen myself on stage for the first time because I was like, Ooh, I need to be shining, so I put a little glitter on that.”

“I think Capricorns are the greatest sign to walk this earth.”

“You have to be flexible, go with the flow sometimes, and get creative with things that's thrown at you.”

“I was a drag racer. And even though I don't drag race, we still go to all the races.”

“I've been playing in makeup and, like, wearing makeup since fifth grade - so the earlier you start, the more you know.”

“Latto is like 'Lotto,' but my little twist on it. It's good fortune - I got '777' tatted on me. I live this.”

“I just don't want a bunch of Yes-Men around me.”

“Both my parents really got it out of the mud. In our household, it was never a plan B, plan C, anything like that. It was plan A and we stick to it. You put in that work, and you pray hard to make sure that plan happens. I credit my parents for my ambition.”

“Every day I have a new idea or new outlook for my music, a new goal for my music and it's because I'm growing as a woman, as a human being as well. At the same time as I'm growing as an artist in the industry, I'm growing as a human.”

“Any lip gloss is fine. Just make sure you put on your lip gloss before you walk out the house.”

“When I walked into the RCA office, it felt like home. They didn't have any female rapper that I would be going toe-to-toe with or competing for attention with. I liked that.”
