Written by ABC AUDIO on July 25, 2023
Latto just raked in her first number one on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart with “Seven,” her recent collaboration with BTS member Jung Kook.
With 21.9 million streams, according to Billboard, the new song debuted atop the chart this week, making Jung Kook the second BTS member to land a number one.
Latto’s hit “Big Energy” reached number three in 2022.
In a recent conversation with People, the rapper opened up about her partnership with the K-pop star, detailing how nervous she was to rap on the song.
“We’ve actually been working on this, maybe a couple months,” she said. “I was so shocked. I’m like, ‘Are you sure you want me?’ I felt so much pressure to do it, but I was like, ‘You know what? He reached out to me for a reason. Let me just go in there and do what I do best.'”
Doing her best clearly paid off as the rapper can now celebrate her first song to go number one.
