LIVE MUSIC
LattoAt this point, the Tom Tom Club's "Genius of Love" should be added to the Great American Songbook. The 1981 banger has been sampled in nearly 200 different songs, including Mariah Carey's "Fantasy," Mark Morrison's "Return of the Mack," Tupac's "High Speed," and most recently, Latto's "Big Energy." Latto's interpretation of the track is fun and flirty, paying homage to Carey by being the "fantasy" of a man with BDE (that's "big dick energy" in case you didn't know). The rising Atlanta-born rapper will bring her Sugar Honey Iced Tea tour to Seattle alongside R&B artist (and IRL biology-enthusiast) Mariah The Scientist and Karrahbooo (formerly of Lil Yachty's Concrete Boys collective).
