Coi Leray's claim that she's never met Latto has come under fire.

The beef between Coi Leray and Latto is hot right now. It all started when Leray objected to being disrespectfully name-dropped in Latto's "Blick Blick". While Leray has since walked back some of her vitriol about being body-shamed, fans are trying to keep the beef alive. This is all in spite of Latto not actually having responded to Leray's call out.

Regardless, the good old Internet sleuths have honed in one on a particular comment from Leray. On April 21, Leray tweeted "If you don’t like me , support me or fwm don’t mention my name. Period. Shit don’t make sense. I don’t know none of you bitches in real life. Stay in y’all lane and leave me outta the bullshit. I be minding my business and showing real love offline." This tweet has since sent fans into a wild rabbit hole.

Coi Leray Literally Appeared In A Latto Video

It was Leray's "I don't know none of you bitches in real life," comment that had the detectives digging. While unclear if it was directed at Latto or internet spectators, fans took it as the former. Thus, it was interpreted as a claim that Coi Leray had never met Latto. That paints the beef as Latto taking shots at Leray, a well-known industry figure, for no other reason than she can. But the other question is, why not? Why is Leray starting beef over a nearly 3-year-old song?

However, as one Twitter user pointed out, Leray literally appears in the video for Latto's 2020 single On God. That would mean that Leray had absolutely met Latto previously. What's more, the revelation adds a whole new layer to the beef. Leray definitely phrased her objections like she was catching strays from a random rapper she had never interacted with before. However, if they had appeared in a video together, then that completely changes the situation. Is there a deeper layer to this beef that we don't know about? This leads to additional questions about the history between Latto and Leray. Did something happen between the two of them? And will this bombshell finally prompt Latto to speak out about the incident?
