Latto Says Her ‘Body Count' Lyrics Aren't ‘That Deep': Just ‘Don't Let Everybody Put Their Hand in That Cookie Jar, Period'
Latto doesn't think fans should take her lyrics about body count that seriously. The Atlanta rapper recently made an appearance on Complex's 360 With Speedy Morman, where she was asked about the debate she spurred online about how many sexual partners a woman has, between her past lyrics and an appearance on TheTylilShow Live. More from Billboard Latto Says She's 'Big Daddy' While Rocking Carmelo Anthony's Syracuse Jersey Thom Yorke Releases 'Dialing In' as Theme to Apple TV+ Series 'Smoke' Kneecap Removed From Scottish Festival Following Safety Concerns From Police 'Be a boss. Don't let everybody put their hand in that cookie jar, period,' she said in reference to having too many sexual partners. 'It's literally not that deep. I'm pushing, like, 'Be a boss. Don't let everybody have access to you.'' She then added that her view on body count also applies to men. 'I think men should be like that too. Y'all just be slangin' that mother—-er around.' Speedy then asked why she felt proud about having a low body count, after she claimed that she never said having multiple partners were a bad thing. 'It's not necessarily like a number that I'm proud of,' Latto responded. 'It's more so, everybody ain't touched this, everybody ain't had their hands on this mother—-er, you feel me?' The 'body count' drama started when Latto and her younger sister Brooklyn were making a social video to promote her single 'Somebody' and Latto asked Tylil if he cared how many partners his girlfriend has had. 'Do you care how many bodies your girl got?' she asked before the popular streamer replied with, 'Nah, hell no, that don't got nothing to do with me' and asked why she always mentions body count in her raps and if she thinks fans believe her. 'I don't give a f— if they believe me; my n—a believe me,' she fired back. Latto has mentioned body count on songs like 'Sunday Service' and 'Somebody,' where she raps, respectively, 'Anyway, body count so low, I might say I'm a virgin' and 'I don't care about your bodies.' Elsewhere in the conversation, Latto was asked about her net worth reportedly being $5 million, and while she claimed that specific number is off, she also said having money isn't as fun as some might think. 'It's kinda boring,' she said after being asked what it feels like to be able to buy whatever she wants. 'For me? I was a millionaire at 21, so you grow up fast already being in the industry at a young age, and then you get a lot of money at a young age too. I think I get the most fun spoiling everybody around me now. I spend more money on other people than I do myself. I be so stingy with my money for myself.' You can watch the full interview below.

The Super Bowl Ads, Ranked
Here is my annual critical ranking of the Super Bowl commercials. This is the pregame edition, with all the available national ads that I could track down; the list will be updated after Sunday's game. The trends so far? Nothing controversial, as you would expect, but also — and perhaps for associated reasons — very little creativity. It's a bad year for ads; the ones at the top of this list aren't much better than average. More spots than usual depend entirely on the appeal of a relatable celebrity (who is almost certainly male). Concepts beat ideas — there is a lot of fussy, overly complicated silliness and not much in the way of simple, effective storytelling or mood setting. (You may not see every commercial listed here during the game, and you may see commercials not listed here. The various broadcast and streaming platforms will carry different selections of ads, and some ads will only be shown in certain regions.) No. 1 National Football League The N.F.L.'s own feel-good promo, 'Somebody,' is affecting in a highly produced, can't-we-all-just-get-along manner. Its implicit endorsement of diversity and inclusion offers a muted contrast to the league's decision to forgo the 'End Racism' end-zone slogan. No. 2 Stella Artois Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
