Latto and Cardi B had some pretty strong sentiments regarding the way that female rappers are treated. Cardi has always been vocal about the double standards that exist in the hip-hop industry. This is particularly true for female artists. Recently, she took to Twitter to express her thoughts. She said that female rappers face higher expectations in terms of their presentation. Yet, they receive a disproportionate amount of disrespect compared to their male counterparts. In a recent interview with NME, fellow rapper Latto supports Cardi's comments and agrees with the disparities that exist.
Latto, who hails from Atlanta, echoes Cardi's sentiments. In her interview, she states, "I definitely agree with that. If you don't agree with that, you're ignorant; it's flat out in our face every day." She goes on to highlight how female rappers are often required to have dancers. They have to go the extra mile just to be on an equal playing field with male rappers. In contrast, male rappers can simply go on stage in a plain white tee and perform a couple of repetitive moves. Despite facing intense scrutiny and analysis, female rappers still have to work harder for success. Latto emphasizes that the journey to success for female artists is not an overnight process.

Three years have passed since Latto was featured on the XXL Freshman list. Still, her hunger for success remains as strong as ever.
