Latto on Pregnancy & Private Relationship: ‘God Spoke To Me’

Big Mama is officially expecting! Rapper Latto, 27, has confirmed the exciting news of her pregnancy, and she’s not holding back when it comes to addressing her personal life. In a candid interview with PAPER Magazine, Latto shared her joy and confidence, stating she’s in her happiest and most peaceful space yet.

Addressing Rumors and Protecting Her Peace

While pregnancy rumors have been swirling, Latto is firm about keeping her relationship private. She told the magazine, ‘I have nothing to prove to anyone. I have no rumor to clear up. I’ve been with my man for years now, and it ain’t going nowhere.’ She emphasized her desire to keep the focus on her music rather than her personal life, a strategy she believes prevents burnout.

Latto also touched on the pressures faced by female artists to overshare. ‘We’re told that we have to put so much of our life out there, and then it becomes too much about our personal life and not enough of the music,’ she explained. For Latto, her happiness and being ‘well taken care of’ are enough for the public to know.

The ‘God Spoke’ Moment and Musical Reflections

When asked about the timing of her pregnancy, Latto revealed a profound spiritual moment. ‘God just spoke to me,’ she shared. ‘I felt like this is what’s supposed to happen at this time of my life right now.’ Despite initial fears about motherhood slowing her career, she now feels more motivated than ever, viewing her pregnancy as ‘written.’

She also clarified her viral lyrics on Summer Walker’s song ‘Go Girl,’ where she rapped, ‘Big mama, no kids. Waiting for the right n***a, right time.’ Latto explained the verse was recorded nearly two years ago before she was pregnant, assuring fans, ‘I’m not a cap-a** b*tch. Let me clear that up.’

Latto plans to document her entire pregnancy, creating a book for her child to see one day. While the gender remains a surprise, she’s committed to carrying on the values instilled in her by her own parents. Her most vulnerable moments regarding her personal life will likely be expressed through her music, keeping the rest of her world private.
