The Real Reason Latto Doesn’t Charge Upcoming Female Rappers for Features

“I utilize my power in uplifting others on my way up. When you see Latto do a feature with an upcoming female rapper, I don’t charge them. The label got to cover the glam, but I don’t profit off that” the “Big Energy” flow queen told Billboard.

Additionally, Latto stated that she is an advocate for women’s rights and hopes that her words will inspire other young women to achieve their goals.

Last year, the Grammy-nominated rapper announced the launch of her charitable organization, which is called The Win Some Give Some Organization. Big Latto founded the organization in order “to empower at-risk young women by providing them resources and support to achieve a lifetime of success.”
