"Somebody" is a single by American rapper Latto, released on May 16, 2025, as the lead single from her fourth studio album, Big Mama (2026).

Content

In the song, Latto raps over a "vibey, laid-back beat" about finding a person she can love and trust. She interpolates "Are You That Somebody?" on the chorus, crooning "I really need somebody / Tell me you that somebody / I don't care about your bodies / Uh, love the way you touch my body".

Critical reception

Bryson "Boom" Paul of HotNewHipHop stated, "By mixing 90s R&B flavor with her trademark confidence, Latto's evolving — not just as a rapper but as a full-blown artist. 'Somebody' ain't just a single; it's a statement that she can talk slick, talk soft, and still make it bang."

HotNewHipHop ranked the song as the 11th best rap song of 2025.

Music video

The music video was released alongside the single. It was directed by Latto's sister Brooklyn Nikole and shot in Jamaica. The clip sees Latto sunbathing on a bamboo raft in a river, and lounging in the sand, surrounded by tropical scenery and lush greenery. She wears a skimpy bikini and limited-edition rose gold, diamond Cartier Crash watch. The video features a cameo from Jamaican DJ Popcaan, who plays her love interest.
