After delivering her new albumĀ 777, Big Latto, the Atlanta-bred rhymer surprised fans with another treat on March 28 with the official ā€œBig Energyā€ remix, which invitesĀ Mariah Carey’sĀ iconic vocal cords to the party.

ā€œOh, when you walk by every night/Talking sweet and looking fine/I get kind of hectic inside/Mmm, baby, I’m so into you/Darling, if you only knew/All the things that flow through my mind/But it’s just a sweet, sweet,ā€ Carey sings.

DJ Khaled brings the energy to kick things off and sets the tone for the remix by introducing all of the artists’ hometowns, with the East Coast well represented from Miami to New York City and Atlanta.

ā€œBig Energyā€ 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 ā€œBig Energyā€ 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.

ā€œI was sooooo nervousĀ I was like what do I say y’all lol but the conversation just floweddd she was so genuine and I definitely was overthinking,ā€ Latto wrote. ā€œWe was sipping on her liquor Black Irish & just kicking it fr.ā€
