Latto Reveals Release Date of T.I.-Sampling Song Ahead of New Album

In the trailer for her new album, Sugar Honey Iced Tea, Latto shared a snippet of a song sampling hometown hero T.I.’s 2003 breakout hit “24’s.” However, when the album dropped last Friday (August 9), fans were surprised to find that the song wasn’t included in the album.

Despite the album receiving critical acclaim and impressive streaming numbers, many listeners were left wondering what happened to Latto’s “24’s” remake. Their curiosity and disappointment were loud and clear across social media platforms and fan forums.

Latto seems to have listened. She recently responded to the fans by announcing a release date for the song, now titled “Chicken Grease.” It’s been added to the album’s “disc two” segment, which contains street anthems “Put It On Da Floor” and “Sunday Service,” along with their respective remixes.

Fans are rejoicing over the news as “Chicken Grease” finally sees the light of day. Some had speculated that the song might have been held back for undisclosed reasons, but its release has put those rumors to rest.

Meanwhile, a portion of Latto’s fan base is diving into the lyrics of “Chicken Grease,” trying to decode if there are subliminal messages aimed at fellow artist Ice Spice. The two had a brief and uneventful feud before their album releases, leaving some fans eager to find hidden meanings in the new track.
