The 23-year-old “Soufside” rapper won the Best New Artist award, clinching the first BET Award of her career.
“I’m so grateful. If you know me and my story…it’s been a long time coming. I’m so appreciative,” she said in her acceptance speech.
Later that evening, she performed her hit single “Big Energy,” which features a sample of Mariah Carey’s “Fantasy.”
The original version of the song was the lead single of her sophomore album “777.” The remix features Mariah re-singing the vocals.
Carey joined Latto onstage, walking out in a regal black gown. With a whistle tone that broke the sound barrier, cheers erupted from the audience.
Fans on social media shared their shock by the guest appearance.
One user wrote, “It’s Brandy saying “THAT’S MY DAWG” when Mariah finished performing! She betta STAN!”
Another tweeted, “Mariah Carey is so ICONIC she doesn’t need to dance. She just needs to be carried around on that stage, use those golden pipes and use dem fingers to flutter. What a woman I stan.”
