Latto is ready to hit it big.

The 23-year-old Atlanta rapper has announced that her highly-anticipated sophomore album 777 will arrive on March 25. Along with the title, she shared the symbolic cover artwork, which finds her dodging knives on a board.

“I put a lot of thought into my artwork I hope u guys love it and understand where I’m at mentally,” she told fans. “The music will give just as much as the visuals! I PROMISE U THAT!”

The album has spawned the top 40 hit “Big Energy,” which is currently No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100, and the latest single “Wheelie” featuring 21 Savage.

In a recent interview with Angie Martinez, she opened up about the follow-up to her 2020 debut Queen of Da Souf.

“I’m very passionate about my work so I’m never gonna put out no bullsh*t. I know I got a lot of eyes on me right now and it’s a little pressure to deliver,” said Latto, who has a “777” tattoo. “So I’m like this gotta be up to par. I feel like my growth as a woman reflects in my music, you’re gonna hear the evolution and just new experiences, new relationships I have to talk about.”

Before the album drops, she will hit the road on her “777 Tour,” which kicks off March 19 in Santa Cruz, Calif.

Kelis’ Husband Mike Mora Dead After Battle With Cancer

Kelis is mourning the death of her husband.

Mike Mora, who married the “Milkshake” singer in 2005, has died after a battle with stage 4 stomach cancer. He was 37.

“Sadly, it’s true that Mike Mora has passed away. We would ask all to respect Kelis and her family’s privacy as of right now. Thank you,” Kelis’ manager, Steve Satterhwaite, told “Entertainment Tonight” on Monday.

Mora, who was a professional photographer, revealed that his symptoms first started in September 2020 after experiencing “the worst pain” in his stomach. At the time, doctors told him that he had only 18 months to live.

“I thought the whole time that I just had an ulcer. With no idea what was about to come my way,” he wrote in September 2021. “Here I was, in a hospital bed, during the middle of the pandemic. All alone.”

Kelis has not publicly commented on her husband’s death, but Evan Ross paid tribute to his friend. “We lost a brother Yesterday. We will truly miss you Mike,” he wrote in a since-deleted post. “Thinking of some of the great times we all spent together.”

He added, “Everything I saw you do. Was built in passion. I loved connecting again with you. Hearing about your children and the life you and your wife have built. Im sending all the prayers and love to your family brother. @kelis ♥♥♥♥♥♥RIP @mikemorafotos.”

Mora and Kelis secretly married in 2014 and share two children: son Shepherd, 6, and daughter Galilee, 1. Kelis also has a son Knight, 12, with ex-husband Nas.
