"Big Energy" is a song by American rapper Latto. It was released through Streamcut and RCA Records on September 24, 2021, as the lead single from Latto's second studio album, 777 (2022). It was written by Latto, A1 LaFlare, Jaucquez Lowe, Randall Hammers, Theron Thomas, Dr. Luke, and Vaughn Oliver, with the latter two handling the production. Adrian Belew, Chris Frantz, Steven Stanley, and Tina Weymouth received songwriting credits since the song interpolates Tom Tom Club's 1981 song "Genius of Love". "Big Energy" has been described as pop and funk-rap. A remix with American singer Mariah Carey featuring DJ Khaled was released on March 28, 2022, with an interpolation of Carey's song "Fantasy", which also heavily samples "Genius of Love". Following the release of the remix, "Big Energy" earned Latto her first top 10 hit on the US Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number three in April 2022. It also hit number one on Billboard's Hot Rap Songs chart for 2 weeks. Consequently, it became the highest-charting solo song by a female rapper since March 2021. The song also reached the top 10 in Australia and Canada, and top 20 in New Zealand. "Big Energy" became Latto's breakthrough on mainstream radio, and she performed the song live on several television appearances. The live version received a nomination for Best Melodic Rap Performance at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards.
