Saucy Santana is back again, tagging Latto for the highly anticipated “Booty” record. “Booty” was a song he had been teasing for weeks and sent social media into a frenzy upon realizing he used a sample of Beyonce’s “Crazy In Love,” a major look for a young artist. The artist played coy about any future work together in his recent Paper Magazine interview, further drawing the intrigue of the internet. The song is finally here, and it delivered on the energy conveyed in the snippet.
This collaboration comes on the heels of Saucy Santana being one of the opening acts for Latto’s Monster Energy Outbreak Tour. “Booty” isn’t their first music collaboration either, coming together in 2020 for “Up & Down” off Pretty Little Gangsta. Latto is riding the wave of her latest album 777, headlined by singles “Big Energy” and “Wheelie” featuring 21 Savage. Days after 777 was released, the Ohio rapper celebrated a huge milestone in adding Mariah Carey and DJ Khaled to the “Big Energy” remix. She recently joined Ella Mai on “Didn’t Say” from Heart On My Sleeve and Neiked and Anne-Marie on “I Just Called.”

Two of rap’s fastest-rising women link up for a fiery collaboration on Lakeyah‘s “Mind Yo Business” featuring Latto. The two former XXL Freshmen (Latto was selected for the honor in 2020, when she was still Mulatto, while Lakeyah was picked last year) are among hip-hop’s most dedicated straight-up rappers, so it only makes sense that they’d team up — and that their collab would work so well.
The Atlanta native and the Atlanta transplant (by way of Milwaukee) display some aggressive chemistry on the fast-paced track, which finds them boasting their big-money moves while warning haters not to stick their noses where they don’t belong. In the song’s video, the two women lounge among the shrubbery in a well-manicured garden while the thirsty gardeners try to catch a glimpse of their greatness from behind the hedges.
Lakeyah, who is signed to Quality Control Music, told Uproxx in a 2020 interview that she plans to be “the biggest artist in the world,” and with the help of Latto — already a burgeoning a superstar in her own right — she appears well on her way. If this is the beginning of a rollout for Lakeyah’s debut album, she’s off to a strong start.

After Lakeyah lead an enthusiastic social media campaign, including having fans guess who would be featured on her new track, tonight she releases her new single “Mind Yo Business” featuring Latto. It’s a special moment as the two rap over a sample of Lil Kim and Iconz’s “Get F***** Up” from 2001. Lakeyah is as confident as ever, denying men the opportunity to get with her if they don’t have as much money as she does. Latto dismisses the men who feel the need to lie about their size in addition to not being able to afford her as well.
“Mind Yo Business” follows Lakeyah’s previous single “I Look Good.” The Quality Control artist last released the third iteration of her time-themed series of projects, My Time (Gangsta Grillz: Special Edition) with the help of DJ Drama back in September of 2021. On the flip side, Latto is reveling in the success of her March album 777, boosted by the chart-topping smash hit “Big Energy,” which she later remixed with Mariah Carey. It’s a fun time to enjoy female rappers, and these two are bringing the energy as the summer rolls around meaning men better come to them correctly.

Anne-Marie and Latto are kissing off their exes on a dancy new break-up track produced by Swedish duo, Neiked. On “I Just Called,” Anne-Marie makes it more than clear that she is over a heartbreak. After taking “a few shots,” Anne-Marie sings on the chorus, “I just called to say I hate you / I just called to say that I’ve moved on / I just called to say this is the last you’ll be hearing from me.”
The chorus interpolates Stevie Wonder’s “I Just Called To Say I Love You,” on which, Wonder sings, “I just called to say I love you / I just called to say how much I care.” Following Anne-Marie’s chorus, Latto comes through with a fiery verse, reminding her ex, she’s “hot options like my closet / but I’m off it / I don’t double back /Might wear it once, then I’m done with it.”
Both Anne-Marie and Latto ride the electronic beat with ease, displaying confidence in their craft as frontrunners in their respective genres. The two maintain solid musical chemistry throughout, especially with Latto riding the high of having quickly brought her brazen craft into the realm of pop with her recent hit, “Big Energy.”
