She also gave advice to women looking to stake their claim in entertainment.

Not everyone wants to keep their life under wraps these days, but Latto is tight-lipped. It doesn't seem like the hitmaker can catch a break, at least not on social media. Latto is inundated with harsh critiques, trolls, and mean-spirited naysayers who flood her mentions. This may be why she's opted to keep her love life private, and during her chat with Extra TV, she explained balancing her public persona and home life.

Recently, there was yet another surge of questions about who Latto was dating. The rapper has curbed questions about her beau for years, only sharing that she's happily in love. Latto won't even hint at who it may be, but internet sleuths are doing their best to find out. People are convinced that she's with 21 Savage, and Moneybagg Yo's reported hairstylist even seemingly confirmed the information earlier this week.

Latto Is Grateful For Her Life

Latto looked stunning at the Billboard Women in Music Awards, where she was given the Powerhouse honor. While on the red carpet, she chatted with Lindsay about her private life. “I really be waking up like, ‘Is this really my life?’ I'm like, ‘Everybody's healthy around me — I could buy them whatever they want,'" said the hitmaker. "It's like, where I’m from, I already made it, baby. We already made it.”

The 777 star also dropped off some advice for women looking to reach similar success. “I would say stay focused," said Latto. "Look to your peers because nobody understand us like each other. We all share a lot of the same experiences and ups and downs, you know what I'm saying? So I feel like look to each other for unity and just stay focused because, you know, these men being in our DMs or whatever, like, they be trying to you know throw us off our game, but, you know what I'm saying, I ain't slipping on my pigeon.”

It's Give & Take

She added, “You got to because everything else is, like ,so exposed to the world. If it's real, cherish it, keep it close to you.” Check out more from Latto and Rachel Lindsay above.
