Cardi B crushes her verse on Latto's "Put It On Da Floor Again."

It’s been three years since Latto graced the cover of the XXL Freshman list but somehow, she still remains as hungry now as she did then. In the past year, we’ve witnessed her incredible rise to pop stardom, thanks to the success of “Big Energy.” The pop-friendly radio record didn’t define her, though. In the months that passed, she continued to showcase her versatility on a number of records that have achieved viral success. However, her latest hit, “Put It On Da Floor” currently has TikTok in a chokehold.

As the song continued to gain momentum on the charts, Latto came through this week with the official remix featuring Cardi B. The two rappers connect on “Put It On Da Floor Again,” which brings the Bronx-born artist into the fold. Serving as Cardi’s first musical offering of 2023, she comes out the gate swinging. The no-holds bars mentality is evident as she targets her adversaries and their affiliates, rapping, “I ain't smokin' on no za', lil' b**ch, I'm smokin' on you/ Put your bestie in a pack and now I'm smokin' her too.”

Cardi B & Latto Collide On The Remix 

Although it’s only been a few weeks since the original song came out, the addition of Cardi B elevates the song further. For one, it’s the first collaboration between the two artists, something that feels long overdue. Meanwhile, Cardi doesn’t necessarily aim to steal the show but rather, complement what Latto laid down on the original. It’s another solid effort that will produce many Instagram captions for the months ahead.

The song also arrived alongside a new music video, which includes some star-studded appearances. While Latto takes fans on a Wal-Mart run, she later links up with Cardi B, who is accompanied by her husband Offset. Syncing up with her bars about LSU, Cardi and Latto also nab a cameo from Angel Reese. The many iconic moments will undoubtedly serve up a few gifs on the timeline. But beyond the viral content, Cardi B and Latto came through with a hit. Check the music video and song above.

Quotable Lyrics
Got so many chains on, I can't even see my throat
These h**s don't do enough that's why I always do the most
Broke n***as give the d**k, rich n***as sponsor goals
Only thing a n***a get from me for free is free the bros
