It’s hard to deny that Angel Reese of the Chicago Sky is emerging as the new face of the WNBA. The rookie has captured fans’ attention not just with her impressive on-court skills but also with her engaging off-court presence. Even after a season-ending injury, Reese has kept her fans entertained through her new podcast, ‘Unapologetically Angel.’ Well, the latest updates suggest that Reese has another exciting guest lineup on the horizon for her next episode on the show.

After releasing two episodes, Chi-Town Barbie aims to make her podcast even more captivating by bringing in the celebrities her fans adore. In her latest episode, she featured rapper Polo G, and it looks like the upcoming third episode might also showcase another rapper, keeping the excitement rolling.

The official handle of Reese’s podcast recently took to X and tweeted, “Drop your questions for Latto below.” The tweet saw a picture of Latto attached to a template that said ‘Ask Latto anything!’

As the rapper gears up to join Angel Reese on her podcast, it’s worth noting that the Sky forward and Latto already have a history together. Last year, while Reese was still a standout player for LSU, she made a cameo in one of Latto’s music videos. The song even gave a nod to the rookie’s college team with the line, “I been ballin’ so damn hard, could’ve went to LSU.”

As Cardi B rapped the basketball-themed lyric in the video, the camera zoomed in on Reese, who stood tall and stared directly into the lens. Now, it looks like Latto is ready to return the favor by joining Reese on her podcast. Well, the rapper has been a supporter of Reese on the court, while the latter has been a fan of Latto’s music, making this collaboration a natural fit.

Latto and Angel Reese: A full-circle friendship

In an interview with Us Weekly, the Chicago Sky player said “The song that brings back the best memories is ‘Put It on Da Floor Again’ by Latto and Cardi B. It reminds me of my championship season at LSU and being in the music video with two of my favorite artists.” While this mirrors her liking for the rapper’s music, in a full-circle moment, Latto showed support for Reese during her debut.

Latto, known for her courtside presence cheering on the Atlanta Hawks, shifted her support to the women’s game in May. On May 15th, as LSU alum Angel Reese made her debut with the Chicago Sky against the Dallas Wings, Latto made sure to be there in person to show her support. During a sideline interview, the rapper was asked why she came to the game, and Latto simply replied with two words: “Angel Reese.”

After the game, Reese couldn’t hide her excitement on X, posting, “DUHHH!! THE BIGGEST!” After the game, photos and video clips of Angel Reese snapping selfies with Latto and her sister, Brooklyn, began circulating on social media. Latto also gave Reese a special shout-out on her TikTok before wrapping up her night in Dallas with a private jet departure.

Reese once again was all love as she replied, “Love you bookiesss IN & OUT LITERALLY.” This mutual admiration is evident, and fans can look forward to more insights into their friendship when Latto joins Reese on next week’s podcast episode, likely dropping on Friday.
