Latto put a feminine, empowering spin on the viral Twitter phrase with her 2021 breakout hit, “Big Energy.” “I basically took this masculine, trendy ‘big d–k energy’ quote from Twitter and made it a thing where all genders can have ‘big energy’ and take it deeper than just [something] sexual,” Latto recently told Billboard of the song, which marks her second Billboard Hot 100 hit. “I wanted it to be empowering. It’s an aura that you carry and a confidence. It’s just an overall vibe and when you walk in the room, you have ‘big energy’ and no one can tell you otherwise. It’s an uplifting thing and turning a funny quote into something positive.” If you need a guide to follow along with Latto’s “Big Energy,” find the lyrics below: (Got that big di– energy)(Got that big di– energy)Hey, dad...
Individual desire can be deadly. Longing can lash all of our roots. Today, let my writing be a subtle question. A musician might tell you of the following ambitions: they want to be the best in their genre, play X or Y music festival and be released on Z label, or be on A playlist.

Other people are playing all the good slots with the main promotion groups. This DJ feels that it’s a competition, and they must beat others to grow worthy of playing at a club. This DJ is in a state of judgment as often “becoming the best” invites. Judgment comes from Ego. Esteemed psychologist Carl Jung refers to the ego as the conscious mind itself – our emotions, moods, and thoughts...

Congress has invited Britney Spears to testify about the harsh conditions of her conservatorship and “to describe in your own words how you achieved justice.” After a drawn out legal battle, Spears finally won her freedom last year. Today, February 16th, she shared a letter from Representatives Charlie Crist (Florida) and Eric Swalwell (California) asking her to share her story. “I received this letter months ago,” she wrote. “I was immediately flattered and at the time I wasn’t nearly at the healing stage I’m in now.” She added that “Because of the letter, I felt heard and like I mattered for the first time in my life,” and said, “In a world where your own family goes against you, it’s actually hard to find people that get it and show empathy.” Advertisement Related Video The letter...
