"The Biggest" is a song recorded by American rapper Latto. It was released as a single on May 21, 2021, through RCA and Streamcut. [1]
"The Biggest" was teased and eventually announced following the change of Latto's stage name from Mulatto to Latto. [2] She changed her stage name due to criticism for using the stage name Mulatto, as the word mulatto is used as a racial classification and some people felt she was glorifying the word by using it in her stage name.
"Mulatto was a negative term that I was trying to make positive. We’re gonna start positive, and I feel like that’s gonna bring that energy my way. I feel like, in a way, that could’ve been holding me back, and I don’t want to attach that to myself anymore…"
— Latto
Latto also addressed claims that she was too slow to change her stage name, stating that she had to involve "management, PR, investors, social media, [and] lawyers" in the change. "The Biggest" was released on May 21, 2021. [3] [4]
In "The Biggest", Latto raps about fame. She says in the song that she "can't be bullied by the public". [5] The song was produced by Supah Mario and Akachi. [4]
