Lola Brooke says that she'd be willing to date someone else in the music industry.

Lola Brooke recently expressed her feelings about dating within the music industry, hinting that she'd be okay with romance with another entertainer. The rapper discussed her opinion on the topic during an interview with Latto on her show, 777 Radio, on Apple Music 1.

“If the vibe is right and my feelings are secure, yeah,” Brooke answered when asked about it. When questioned if she'd still prefer a “nine to five” partner, she replied, “I don’t mind doing that but when I really think about reality, it’ll be like, ‘Will he start fighting with my accomplishments? Will he be insecure?'”

Elsewhere in the interview, Brooke reflected on her hometown of Brooklyn. “Brooklyn is the best because no matter where you go in the world, if you’re from the Bronx or Queens or whatever, you’re going to say, ‘I’m from New York.’ But a Brooklyn person is going to say, ‘I’m from Brooklyn,'” Lola Brooke explained to Latto. “We’re not going to say we’re from New York, we’re going to say we’re from Brooklyn. That’s just how it is. I don’t know. Shout out to the greats: Jay-Z and Biggie.”

Brooke recently starred as the face of the 50th anniversary of the Original Timberland Boot campaign. She also opened for fellow New Yorker, A Boogie wit da Hoodie, on his Me Vs Myself international tour. Brooke blew up in on the hip-hop scene over the last two years following the release of her single, “Don’t Play with It." A year after its original 2021 release, the song reached new heights in popularity due to its explosion on Twitter and TikTok. The song eventually made its way onto the US Billboard Hot 100, where it peaked at 69. Just last month, Brooke teamed up with Latto and Yung Miami for a remix of the track. The music video has reached over 4 million views on YouTube in the time since.
