Latto Credits Spicy Seafood Boil For Labor Kickoff
Latto is giving fans a look back at the moments leading up to welcoming her daughter, and her labor story definitely wasn’t what some might expect. During an appearance on First We Feast’s ‘Hot Ones’ with host Sean Evans, the rapper revealed that she ordered a spicy seafood boil the night before her due date because she was ready to meet her baby. According to Latto, she wasn’t experiencing any signs of labor but had already decided that she wanted her daughter to arrive the following day. Hoping to give things a little push, she opted for an extra-hot seafood boil. Less than an hour after finishing the meal, she noticed liquid trickling down and soon realized her water had broken.

Latto Shares What Pregnancy Was REALLY Like For Her
Latto also reflected on how pregnancy changed some of her food cravings. Although she typically enjoyed spicy foods, she said she developed a serious sweet tooth while expecting and hadn’t quite returned to her usual love for heat since giving birth. The rapper confirmed the arrival of her daughter, whom she shares with 21 Savage, in May. However, the couple has kept their little one’s identity private, choosing not to reveal her name or share photos of her face publicly. Latto also shared some behind-the-scenes details about recording her ‘Big Mama’ album while pregnant. She recalled becoming winded just from walking into the studio and making her way to the recording booth. She also joked about needing frequent bathroom breaks throughout the recording process.
