After delivering her new albumย 777, Big Latto, the Atlanta-bred rhymer surprised fans with another treat on March 28 with the official โBig Energyโ remix, which invitesย Mariah Careyโsย iconic vocal cords to the party.
โOh, when you walk by every night/Talking sweet and looking fine/I get kind of hectic inside/Mmm, baby, Iโm so into you/Darling, if you only knew/All the things that flow through my mind/But itโs just a sweet, sweet,โ Carey sings.
DJ Khaled brings the energy to kick things off and sets the tone for the remix by introducing all of the artistsโ hometowns, with the East Coast well represented from Miami to New York City and Atlanta.
โBig Energyโ peaked at No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 last week, and with the combined release of 777 and this star-studded remix, fans can expect the single to chart even higher.
Latto hosted a Q&A with fans on Twitter, where she explained how the โBig Energyโ remix came together. She revealed she actually had Mariah Carey in mind as far back as November, and the song was recorded overnight as the 5x-Grammy winner is a night owl.
โI was sooooo nervousย I was like what do I say yโall lol but the conversation just floweddd she was so genuine and I definitely was overthinking,โ Latto wrote. โWe was sipping on her liquor Black Irish & just kicking it fr.โ
