As August 9 marks the one-year anniversary of the release of Latto‘s third studio album ‘Sugar Honey Iced Tea,’ the 3-time GRAMMY nominee is raising a glass to the critically acclaimed set by dropping a commemorative, limited vinyl edition.

To sweeten the pot, the femcee is giving a fan favorite from the project the video treatment: ‘Chicken Grease.’

“Put it on him, make him wanna marry me (ah) / If he don’t buy me what I want, I cause a scene (ah) / F-ck me in the mirror, boost my self-esteem (uh) / Country b-tch, I get it poppin’, chicken grease (uh, uh, uh),” she raps over a chorus that interpolates elements of T.I.‘s 2003 smash ‘24s.’

K. Michelle and Tamar Braxton have made headlines for over a decade due to their ongoing feud, but at least one matter they don’t appear to be at odds over is support for New Orleans music royal Big Freedia.

Led to Billboard 200 chart battle by songs ‘Sunday Best‘ (featuring Braxton), ‘Holy Shuffle‘ (featuring Porter), and the unaccompanied ‘Take My Hand,’ ‘Forward’ takes on special meaning for Freedia as it comes as her first project released since the May 2025 death of Devon Hurst – her romantic partner of 20 years.
