What are you doing for them? In my experience, full ROM is more important than weight. Getting that final 10% of ROM where you feel your lats squeeze is important.
Slow the reps way down. So slow. Like at 5 seconds on the concentric and eccentric. For like 3 or sessions. You'll be able to feel exactly where and how to engage your lats and be able to do it more voluntarily. Helped me break a 6 month long 15 pullup stall.
stop doing lat pulldowns and start doing pull ups properly
Stop doing weighted if you can't even engage your lats properly. Start unweighted and 'lean' back when doing pullups, if you can't feel your lats you are doing them wrong.

Any kind of unilateral chest supported row with a big stretch will work.
Rowing close to your obliques as opposed to rowing close to your chest also means you are working the lats more.
You ARE doing chest supported rows, right anon?
Apply yourself.

i do weighted pull ups
So do them unweighted and slow reps for at least a warm up. If you're at a gym try the wide angled grips.

Do both you Black person, one is a compound and the other is an 'isolation' lift you can perform after your compound to further hit your lats.

i do chest supported t bar row
Wide or close elbow angle? Do you let your shoulders stretch at the bottom and then start the row by retracting them, or do you pull with your arms?
i pull with my back but i notice i cant seem to lift it up super high, it only touches like the bare minimum area
Record yourself. If you can't pinpoint what's wrong, make a thread asking for guidance.
Try Yates Rows
get strong at pull ups
Close grip pulldowns to failure
Fraudjo got put in his place.
Train them
