While talking about female rappers on his podcast, Joe Budden said Doja Cat can't see Latto when it comes to rhyming. His comment then created a big back-and-forth among the rappers' fans.
Joe Budden just ranked Latto over Doja Cat and said she’s a better rapper π pic.twitter.com/yw9xcUhdSF

"Latto is ill," said Joe. "I might have to have her [at] number two. Nicki [Minaj] is number one for me. I think Latto would give Doja a long night ... If I’m just talking about rapping, Doja can pack it up if Latto walks in the studio with her notebook."
Here are some of the responses to those comments:
The difference is Doja will actually rap about diff topics. LocsHo will rap about her BBL, Clayco, my man my man my man & birkins.

I don’t completely disagree with his talking points, however, I think in a few more years the consensus will change. We haven’t seen Doja fully step into the rap bag. Scarlet was a good step in the direction though. Latto started with and came up from pure rap competition. Doja…

Is it because Doja doesn't want to do a ghetto trashy hood pandering hit? Or hip-hoo ft? Doja Cat is an artist okay. Latto is a chop.

Who would you say is a better rapper if we're going off bars?
