Lakeyah and Latto Collaborate on โMind Yo Business,โ a new single and video.
Lakeyah, a rising Milwaukee rapper and Quality Control Music force of nature, releases โMind Yo Businessโ [feat. Latto] as a new single and music video today via Motown Records.
Lakeyah whips out one bulletproof bar after another with no shortage of flirting fire and skill on the single, which features horns over a propulsive groove. She grins and says, โI enjoy it when men pursue me. If youโre trying to replace me, good luck.โ Meanwhile, Latto makes an equally powerful cameo, complete with poetic brilliance and precision. Lakeyah and Latto take over a hedge labyrinth in the accompanying video, almost leaving a trail of flames after an incendiary and show-stopping back-and-forth.
Lakeyah discusses working along with Latto stating โI had the opportunity to work with one of my favorite new period rap ladies! The song and the video are both fantastic. โMind Yo Businessโ is one of my favorite songs, and I canโt wait for everyone to hear it.โ
Lakeyah recently signed a deal with Motown Records, one of the most historic and iconic labels of all time, making yet another powerful move. According to the QC artist, โIโm ecstatic and grateful to be associated with Motown Records. Theyโve always been enthusiastic about my music, but now itโs on a whole new level!โ
Ethiopia Habtemariam, Motownโs Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, says, โLakeyah is a natural talent who has been honing her skills under QCโs guidance. Her transition from rap prowess to melodious vocalist is smooth, and weโre looking forward to all of her upcoming albums. Lakeyah has been dedicated to her trade since she was 15 years old, and she is now poised for greatness.โ
Pierre โPโ Thomas, CEO of Quality Control, says, โWeโve been working with Lakeyah for a few years, knowing we had our sights set on this Motown signing because she has all the makings of a superstar. I have no doubt she will advance swiftly in this culture and leave a significant imprint.โ
โMind Yo Businessโ follows Lakeyahโs previous song, โI Look Good.โ The song received considerable critical acclaim in addition to over 1 million total streams. The Source commended the โfiery hook,โ while REVOLT described it as โa confidence-filled hymn that serves to show off her flair and passion shortly before her summers takeover.โ It was also mentioned in Essence and Uproxx.
