One Of The Writers Of Latto’s ‘Big Energy’ Says The Song Was Originally Meant For Cardi B

With the female rap renaissance in full bloom, it’s only right the self-proclaimed Queen of the South ruled the charts this year.

Thanks to “Big Energy,” the lead single off her second studio album, “777,” 23-year-old Alyssa “Latto” Stephens celebrated milestones like her first Top 20 hit on the Hot 100 and the longest-charting solo female rap song.

“Every time they tell me a new accomplishment, I be wanting to fact-check that shit,” Latto says of the record, which also helped her make history as the first solo female rapper to have a No. 1 song at Pop, Rhythmic and Urban radio. “It’s something new every day. It just feels back-to-back, nonstop right now.”

However, one of the writers of the hit song says it was originally meant for Cardi B. But he gave it to Latto because she needed a crossover hit. He made the revelation in a recent podcast which has since gone viral.

Latto seemingly reignited her beef with Nicki Minaj while making her Coachella debut. During her set at the Sahara stage on Sunday, Latto debuted a new song on which she takes shots at her idol turned rival.

“She thought I would kiss her ass, she must ain’t took her meds,” she raps on the track. “Say she got a problem, imaginary smoke / Bitch, you said it’s up, then put it on the floor, pussy ho.”.

As she walked off the stage, Latto added, “Let a bitch know. We tired of the subtweets this year. Bitch, let me know.”
