The Breakdown: Fans of Latto insist on knowing who the rapper is dating. Details about her love life have slipped out over the years, causing a frenzy about her man’s identity.
As much as she tries to keep her love life under wraps, Latto can’t seem to escape rumors about her boyfriend’s identity. The Atlanta rapper’s been linked to her mystery man since she was a teenager, and even though fans keep speculating, Latto keeps the details on lockdown. From addressing 21 Savage rumors to dropping hints on her latest album, Big Latto proves she’ll protect her peace above all else.
Latto has been dating her boyfriend for years.
Latto first let slip that her boyfriend had been in her life since they were both young ’uns. In a June 2023 People interview, she explained, “He lets me be myself,” and shared that they’ve built a trusting bond. “People think I'm so tough because I'm super confident and dominant. In this relationship at least, I'm way more comfortable with taking the passenger seat and letting him lead because he lets me be myself—and I can still be my alpha self,” she said. “But I respect him as a man to play the man role. And I’m really in my soft girl era.”
She refuses to name names, insisting that “everything else has to be front and center about my life,” and that her relationship is not for public consumption. “Everything about my life is to be picked apart by social media and [I] gotta hear everybody's two cents and opinions on something that don't got nothing to do with them,” she added. “I'm in a real relationship, not a PR stunt. I just want to protect it, that’s all.”
According to Capital XTRA, Latto and her boyfriend have been an item for over four years after a simple Twitter interaction turned into something real. However, some fans think the Georgia native is dating 21 Savage – and Latto can’t seem to escape the rumors.
Latto has denied that she is dating 21 Savage.
Fans have been speculating that Latto is dating 21 Savage after they linked up on “Wheelie” and some claim to notice matching tattoos and Sims avatars. But Latto denied it—during a TikTok Q&A in February, she clapped back at any 21 Savage rumors: “No, I’ve said I’m not plenty [of] times,” per Complex. 21 Savage also denied the rumors in December 2022, stressing he “didn’t have a celebrity girlfriend,” XXL reports.
Even though she won’t point the finger at who her man is, Latto’s music serves up hints. In an interview with Apple Music during her Sugar Honey Iced Tea era, she admits letting her “pride down” when writing songs about her love. She also warns fans that “the internet don’t know a goddamn thing” and that listening to her lyrics is the closest they’ll get to the real story. Adding, “I like being private. I think it ain't really nobody business. Listen to the music, and you'll know what you need to know."
