Nicki Minaj and Latto have been beefing for some time, and fans of the New York rapper took to social media to clown Latto for only selling 27,000 equivalent units for her debut album Sugar Honey Iced Tea.
The album will debut at no.17 on the charts.
“Whoooo them album sales is way lower than I predicted. I gave her at least 45-50k Dang….,” one fan commented.
Another wrote, “nothin but “her loss” scraps and leftovers and this the best she could do. Po thang.”

Latto, who was named no.7 on Billboard’s top female rapper list sold 1,000 units less than Ice Spice, who was ranked at no.5.
In a recent interview, Latto said it was unlikely she’d engage in a serious rap battle with Ice Spice.
“If I was to do [a battle], it would have to be with somebody I feel like I’ma go tit for tat with. I really don’t mean it as shade. Would she even want to do that? I feel like she’s doing her in her lane. It’s two different types of vibes. I don’t even think she gives me like, ‘Oh, she wants to engage in an actual rap beef,'” she said.
