Latto and Snoop Dogg are gearing up for their joint cover shoot at Hollywood’s historic United Recording studios.
Snoop, displaying an unexpected familiarity with Latto’s work, requests her single “Put It on Da Floor,” instantly bonding with the young rapper.
Despite their recent acquaintance, they share an easy camaraderie, rapping together and even recording a video shout-out for Latto’s mother. The photo shoot captures Latto’s dual essence—graced in high-end fashion yet down-to-earth with a red Solo cup in hand—a testament to her magnetic presence.
The 24-year-old artist, hailing from Ohio and based in Atlanta, has been honing her skills since childhood, winning The Rap Game reality show in 2016.
Her breakthrough came with 2019’s “Queen of Da Souf,” and collaborations like the remix of “Big Energy” with Mariah Carey catapulted her to stardom.
Achieving her first Number One hit this year with “Seven” alongside Jung Kook of BTS, Latto is ascending to stardom rapidly.
Snoop, an iconic figure in the industry since his debut in 1992, offers valuable advice on navigating fame to Latto, highlighting the significance of his seasoned perspective.
Snoop, who graced the cover of Rolling Stone almost exactly 30 years before this issue, has become a globally recognizable figure. Beyond his music career, he purchased Death Row Records in 2022 and has evolved into a brand influencer, overseeing the Snoop Youth Football League and serving as a respected elder statesman in rap. As hip-hop commemorates its 50th anniversary, Snoop’s guidance becomes invaluable for rising talents like Latto, embodying a passing of the torch and a continuation of the genre’s rich legacy.
