"Put It on da Floor" is a song by American rapper Latto from her third studio album, Sugar Honey Iced Tea (2024). It was released on April 21, 2023, through Streamcut and RCA Records and is included on the album as a bonus track. It was produced by Go Grizzly, Squat Beatz, Pooh Beatz and DJ Prince. An official remix of the song featuring American rapper Cardi B titled "Put It on da Floor Again" was released on June 2, 2023, which was also included on the album. Although the single initially did not chart, the remix debuted at number 13 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
Latto first performed the song at Coachella, several days before it was released.[1]
In the song, Latto raps about being tired of people criticizing and being sneaky,[2] warning her detractors to not cause trouble for her,[3] and boasts her wealth. In the chorus, she raps: "I done done it all / feel like Shawty Lo / Laughin' to the bank / but shit is not a joke / Say she got a problem? / Imaginary smoke / Bitches said it's up / then put it on the floor".
Latto references fellow rapper Coi Leray in the opening of the second verse: "Smokin' on that gas, blunt big as Coi Leray". Shortly after the song was released on streaming services, Leray responded with a series of tweets, taking issue with the lyrics and accusing Latto of body shaming her.[4] [5] However, Leray later stated in a tweet that she may have overreacted and went on to warn Latto not to mention her name in a song again. During Weekend Two of Coachella 2023, Latto said at the end of her set, "Ay, Coi Leray I love your body baby."[6]
The music video was released on April 24, 2023. It includes clips of her Coachella performance.[7]

Cardi B performs the second verse, in which she takes aim at her haters and critics ("I ain't smokin' on no za', lil' bitch, I'm smokin' on you / Put your bestie in a pack and now I'm smokin' her too / I been ballin' so damn hard, could've went to LSU, huh / Got so many chains on, I can't even see my throat"),[9] [10] and says she is always "doing the most". She also declares, "I'm sexy dancin' in the house, I feel like Britney Spears", referencing the singer's dance videos on Instagram.[11]
The remix was well-received. Tom Breihan of Stereogum wrote, "Cardi matches and then exceeds Latto's energy. Once again, Cardi is endlessly quotable".[12] Brycen Saunders of Hypebeast wrote, "By bringing Cardi B on board, the track receives an extra dose of high-caliber rap energy – putting on for the growing strength of woman rap."[13]
A music video was released alongside the remix. It sees Latto and Cardi B causing mischief, twerking and showing their riches in a number of stores, including a convenience store, grocery store, and jewelry store,[14] [15] and at a house party. They are also seen toasting 1800 Tequila Cristalino. Cardi B wears a cutout black playsuit emblazoned with "I feel like Britney Spears" in green text.
