Mariah Carey made a special surprise appearance at the BET Awards on June 26. Latto performed the remix of her hit song "Big Energy," which features Carey and her hit song "Fantasy." At the end of the performance, Carey was featured in silhouette before she came out on stage to sing the "Fantasy" chorus. For the performance, Latto changed into a black jumpsuit with gold embellishments. Meanwhile, Carey wore a dramatic black gown. Earlier in the evening, Latto took home the best new artist award.

Both Latto's "Big Energy" and Carey's "Fantasy" heavily sample the same song, "Genius of Love" by Tom Tom Club. "She's such an uplifting spirit," Latto told Variety of working with Carey. She explained, "I'm grateful for the remix and for her vocals - Mariah's a legend - but I'm grateful for the experience that she gave me with this song and all the words of advice.
