Grammy-nominated rapper Latto has shared new details regarding her journey into motherhood, revealing that she is hoping her first child will be a girl. The “Big Energy” artist disclosed her preference in a recently released behind-the-scenes vlog documenting her cover shoot for Paper magazine, where she also updated fans on her pregnancy timeline.
During the footage, the 27-year-old rapper reflected on the upcoming arrival of her firstborn while posing for a series of high-fashion looks. Latto confirmed that both she and the child’s father are aligned in their wishes for a daughter. “We both want a girl,” she said while discussing her excitement for the next chapter of her life. While the rapper has historically kept the identity of her partner private, public speculation continues to link her to fellow artist 21 Savage.
The vlog provided a rare look at the rapper navigating her third trimester. Latto revealed that at the time of the magazine shoot, she was already eight months pregnant. This timeline suggests meaningful proximity to her due date, with some fans estimating she could give birth as early as April. The timing coincides with a major professional milestone, as her upcoming studio album, “Big Mama,” is scheduled for release on May 29.
Throughout the video, Latto emphasized that this pregnancy was something she had anticipated for a long time. She noted that she “prayed” for the opportunity to start a family, expressing gratitude for the timing of her personal and professional growth. Despite being in the late stages of pregnancy, she has remained active in the music scene, balancing high-profile photo shoots with the final preparations for her new project.
As the release date for “Big Mama” approaches, the rapper appears to be fully embracing her new persona. The album’s cover art and title serve as a direct nod to her transition into motherhood. Fans have praised the artist for her transparency regarding the physical demands of shooting a magazine cover while heavily pregnant, as she donned several complex outfits while showcasing her baby bump. With just weeks to go until her album hits streaming platforms and her baby is expected to arrive, the Atlanta-based star is proving she can manage a high-stakes career alongside major life changes. Whether she welcomes a “mini-me” or a son, Latto told viewers she is ready for the “Big Mama” era to officially begin.
