Atlanta rapper Latto dropped her new album Big Mama on May 29, 2026, and one track is already lighting up timelines. Fans and hip-hop outlets quickly zeroed in on “Gimmie Dat,” where she appears to fire back at Cardi B over last year’s leaked phone call drama.
The speculation kicked off almost immediately after the project hit streaming platforms. Listeners connected several bars directly to Cardi’s 2025 private conversation with Ice Spice’s manager, James Rosemond Jr., that leaked online in September 2025. In the audio, Cardi made heated remarks about Latto while ranting, including lines like
“I ain’t pussy ass Latto!” and “I’ma beat her the fuck up. I’ma knock her the fuck out!”
On X, Cardi responded to the leak on the same day with this post:
“I was raving and hot-headed in that moment but I really f**k with Latto, HEAVILY!!! I respect everything about her including her team, which is super sweet. AND NOT AT ALL! I’m not too proud to give an apology to someone I respect.”
Latto stayed silent publicly at the time. But on Big Mama, she lets her thoughts be known. Key lyrics from “Gimmie Dat” include:
“Btch said what? Let’s clock it / Really got a Hermès store in my closet / Talkin’ ‘bout buyin’ Big Mama a bag like my na ain’t already bought it.” She follows up with a direct challenge: “Wish a bch would get in that booth / I’m callin’ up PlaqueBoyMax.”
XXL and other outlets highlighted how the Hermès references and booth call-out line up with Cardi’s apology offer. Fans see it as Latto rejecting the gift idea while daring Cardi to step into the studio for a real response.
Social media reactions split right down the middle. One side cheered the move.
“Cardi said a lot of unnecessary stuff… Saying you’ll buy her a bag is also disrespectful to Latto and her man too!! I fw her for dissing Cardi,”
One user posted. Others pushed back:
“Cardi already apologized… the issue should have remained settled.”
This situation shows how leaked private moments still echo in hip-hop months later. Latto and Cardi had previously worked together on a remix, which made the original leak sting even more for some observers. The Big Mama album artwork showing a pregnant Latto holding a cheetah cub added extra buzz to the rollout.
As of right now, neither artist has dropped a fresh statement on the track or the renewed chatter. Fans remain split on whether this counts as a delayed clapback or the possible start of something bigger in the female rap lane. The ball is in the court or the booth.
