Rapper Lakeyah has recently responded to TikTok personality Takeisha Lafaye after the latter made a comment that did not sit well with her. The exchange led to a heated argument, and the clip of their confrontation is gaining a lot of attention on social media.
The dispute began when Lafaye, in a live video, claimed that Lakeyah, who hails from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, did not leave any major impact on the music industry compared to other female artists. The latter was heard responding to Lafaye:
"You think you amounted to more than me?"
Lafaye began laughing in response and said:
"You really meant about my opinion like this sh*t crazy sound of me. Are you okay? You pose to be a lie scan rap, you pose to be the hottest b*tch out right now, where's your hit song b*tch?"
Lafaye continued questioning Lakeyah about her hit song and said at one point:
"I'm the biggest hater b*tch. I'm the biggest."
Also known as Lakeyah Danaee Robinson, she also replied with frustration and stated:
"I'd be around b*tches who real."
However, Lafaye did not seem to be bothered by Danaee Robinson's responses, and she said towards the end:
"When I say amount to nothing, I didn't mean like your whole existence, I mean you don't amount to nothing in the rap space. You don't make no noise in the rap space. I wasn't saying your entire f*cking life means to nothing."
Lakeyah released multiple successful projects over the years: Details explored
The 23-year-old made her debut around four years ago and has slowly accumulated a huge fanbase among the public. She has been signing with the record label Quality Control Music for a long time and developed an interest in rapping at the age of 15.
Lakeyah first gained attention by submitting a song to the #SoGoneChallenge, a rap challenge that went viral. After the track became popular, she started releasing more singles on different platforms. She had been mostly influenced by artists like Nicki Minaj and Drake.
In a 2020 interview with XXL Magazine, the singer stated that her style has always been compared to artists from Detroit, specifically Saweetie, but she has never believed the same. She stated:
"I think its pretty normal because they do that to people that's fresh in the game, especially girls. I was trending on YouTube because Milwaukee was arguing with Detroit, and my song started trending. I'm glad that we were fighting with y'all."
Danaee Robinson also addressed the best moments of her life, saying that it was the time when she began trending on YouTube and met Lil Baby. In another conversation with Refinery 29 in 2022, Lakeyah opened up on how she works with women in an industry that is dominated by men. She stated:
"I really want to get as many as I can because [there's] just something about people seeing that female rappers are collabing more than competing. I feel like we're changing the whole game."
Apart from her singing career, Danaee Robinson was selected as a brand ambassador for Rihanna's lingerie brand, Savage X Fenty. Her first major project, a mixtape titled Time's Up, was released in 2020.
Lakeyah also released two EPs in 2022 and has multiple singles in her credits, including Female Goat, Poppin, Easy, Too Much, and I Look Good.
