The Queen of Da South Latto uses her new album, Big Mama, to address fellow female rapper Cardi B about an old tweet on the track “Gimmie Dat.” Now that the most talked-about song on the album, released Friday, fans are questioning whether Latto’s reference to Cardi is a diss or facts.

On the record, the Atlanta rapper delivers confident bars about status, money, and rap competition before appearing to challenge another female artist directly.

“B*tch said what? Let’s clock it,” Latto raps. “Wish a b*tch would get in that booth / I’m callin’ up PlaqueBoyMax.”

Many listeners believe the bars reference Cardi B, especially given the pair’s complicated public history during the last two years.

Fans quickly connected the verse to leaked audio involving Cardi B during her online fallout with Nicki Minaj. In the clip, Cardi dismissed Ice Spice while saying she was not “p**sy ass Latto.” The remark spread rapidly across social media and fueled rumors of tension between the two rappers.

Soon afterward, Cardi publicly apologized.

“I f*ck with Latto HEAVY,” Cardi wrote online at the time. “I respect everything about her.”

Rapper Latto Brings Up Situation With Cardi B On ‘Big Mama’ Track “Gimmie Dat”

The Bronx rapper also joked about buying Latto a designer bag as part of the apology. After that exchange, many fans believed the situation had ended quietly behind the scenes.

Still, speculation returned earlier this year when Latto performed “Put It On Da Floor” live. Some fans believed repeated lyrics during the performance subtly referenced the leaked Cardi audio. Latto later denied targeting anyone directly.

Now, “Gimme Dat” has reopened the conversation.

Neither Latto nor Cardi B has confirmed an active feud. Yet fans continue dissecting every lyric tied to Big Mama for possible subliminals. The debate reflects modern hip-hop’s obsession with hidden shots, coded lyrics, and social media clues.

The renewed attention also arrives during a dominant era for women in rap, where competition often fuels public conversation as much as chart success itself.

For now, listeners remain divided. Some hear ordinary rap talk. Others believe Latto intentionally reignited unfinished business with Cardi B through one of Big Mama’s sharpest records.
