Unfortunately, it seems like fanbases are more propense to pit female rappers against each other rather than encourage collaboration. Whether that's because of a more misogynistic industry landscape, interest in beef, or just pure coincidence is up for debate. Still, competition in rap is natural and even encouraged across all generations, because who wants to sit there and admit that they're a worse MC than another? French Montana and his kids, though, approached this in quite the light-hearted way rather than feeding into the worst parts of those tendencies. While celebrating one of his sons' graduation, the rapper acted as a mediator in a debate over whether Ice Spice is better than Latto or vice versa.
"Latto is better than Ice Spice!" the graduate exclaimed after one of French Montana's friends, presumably, said as such. "He put you on video saying that," his other son remarked before the graduate jumped in. "Nah, never," the "I Can't Lie" hitmaker said in an effort to moderate. "Y'all both equal, y'all both good." Hilariously, his two sons joked about the femcees hitting them up.
French Montana Moderates Ice Spice Versus Latto Debate With Children
Interestingly enough, the 38-year-old has only worked with one of these artists so far. Him and Latto have a track with Ty Dolla $ign, "Striptease," off of French Montana's 2021 album "They Got Amnesia." Of course, that's not to say that French Montana and Ice Spice couldn't have a collab in the future, just that he could've easily played into a bias with his comments. Fortunately, he was right to dismiss the competition, if only because his opinion as a fellow famous rapper could have more industry consequences than that of his kids. Let us know what you think of that debate in the comments down below.
Meanwhile, the Moroccan-American rapper is set to premiere his documentary For Khadija soon, which documents his experiences as an immigrant growing up in the Bronx during his teenage years. While the film doesn't have a release date for wider release as of yet, it will premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival on Friday (June 16). It will surely be an emotive experience, and one that represents his hard-earned rise to bringing a better life for his family while being inspired by them.
