Latto (real name Alyssa Michelle Stephens) was born in Columbus, Ohio, and raised in Atlanta. The artist first found fame as a 16-year-old when she competed and won season one of Lifetime's reality show 'The Rap Game', though she turned down the grand prize – a record deal with Jermaine Dupri's So So Def Records. Her first single, 2020's "Bitch From da Souf," reached No. 95 on the Hot 100. Her debut album, 'Queen of Da Souf,' reached No. 44 on the Billboard 200. She has since collaborated with Cardi B on "Put It On Da Floor Again," which reached No. 13 on the Hot 100 in June 2023, and Megan Thee Stallion on "Budget," which reached No. 87 in August 2022. She has been nominated for Grammys for best new artist and best melodic rap performance (for "Big Energy" live), both in 2023.
