Latto Sparks Mixed Reactions After Rapping Nicki Minaj’s “Bedrock” Verse on Instagram Live

Latto has navigated her share of industry feuds, but her tensions with Nicki Minaj have remained more low-key compared to her public clashes with Ice Spice and Coi Leray. However, when Latto performed Minaj’s verse from the Young Money hit “Bedrock” during an Instagram Live session, it sparked mixed reactions online.

A fan on X (formerly Twitter) voiced their criticism, stating, “Latto talked about Nicki’s family, recorded a private phone call, and age-shamed her. Y’all remember what Nicki said? ‘Sealed your fate if you ever hated on the family.’” Despite this, Latto’s appreciation for Minaj’s music remains clear.
