Here’s Why Fans Think Latto Checked Cardi B on ‘Big Mama’ Track ‘Gimme Dat’
Cardi previously appeared to diss Latto during a 2025 leaked phone call with Ice Spice's manager.
Latto returned with what she’s billed as her “retirement album” as Big Mama hit streaming services on Friday (May 29).
Fan chatter on social media began buzzing after listening to “Gimme Dat,” which saw plenty of theories about Latto appearing to take a jab at Cardi B and challenging the Bronx rapper to get into the booth.
“Talkin’ ’bout buying Big Mama a bag like my n—a ain’t already bought it/ Like my n—a ain’t comin’ off racks/ Big bank over here, big facts/ Wish a b—h would get in that booth/ I’m callin’ up PlaqueBoyMax,” she raps on the track.
“latto really dared cardi b ass to get in the booth in retaliation and told her ghost writer to send his reader,” one person wrote on X, while another added, “omg latto dissed cardi b on her album bc of that leaked call with ice spice, let me give big mama a few streams tonight”
Billboard has reached out to Cardi B for comment.
The first part about “buying Big Mama a bag” is what aligns this closest to Cardi. Back in September 2025, the Grammy-winning rapper apologized to Latto for dissing her on a leaked phone call with Ice Spice’s manager, James Rosemond Jr. Cardi was furious and referenced Latto, who previously had beef with Ice Spice, on multiple occasions during the call. “I ain’t p—y a– Latto,” she said at the time. “I’m not Latto. I’ma beat her the f–k up!”
The “WAP” rapper faced the music and didn’t back down, as she owned up to her mistake and publicly apologized to Latto while promising to buy her a new designer bag.
“I was ranting and hot at the moment but I f-k with Latto HEAVY,” she wrote on X at the time. “I respect everything about her including her team thats so sweet.. AND NOPE! I’m not too prideful to apologize to somebody I really respect so this my public apology and now ima privately buy her a bag.”
Latto and Cardi had a good working relationship before the leaked call, which Latto didn’t publicly address at the time. The leaked call came just days after Latto hopped on Cardi’s “ErrTime (Remix)” and they previously teamed for the “Put It on Da Floor (Remix),” which reached No. 13 on the Billboard Hot 100.
