Budding superstar Baby Keem’s self-titled breakout track “Baby Keem” serves as an apt thesis statement for him as an artist. Keem delivers quirky, energetic flex bars over a bouncy trap beat produced by frequent collaborator Cardo.
This is also the first notable song in which Baby Keem mentions tha...
[Chorus]
Fuck you mean? Bitch, I'm Baby Keem
Two-phone Baby Keem, fuck me if you want, ayy
Yes, I like you, girl, I don't want to front
Lay you in the bed, bae, let's cuddle up, uh, yeah
[Verse]
I'm gon' fuck this nigga bitch 'cause she got what I like, ooh
Morning, I chill with the plug, then we get up at night, ooh
Diamonds do the Macarena, that's Fourth of July, ooh (Fourth of July!)
She gon' play with the nana when she wake up (Bae, wake up!)
We gon' have a good day, get your nails done
What's your favorite color? Oh, that's mine too
Just to get that pussy, I'm gon' lie to you
I'm a young nigga, I'm irresponsible, ayy
Big money off in the desert, woah
Assist your ho, no pressure, woah
My bitch need no effort, woah
I heard your bitch wear Skechers, woah
Promised I won't tell it, woah
I got me a cheekbone fetish, woah
That made my smart bitch jealous, woah
Straight to the curb, she headed, woah
I just took that nigga pack, won't give it back, ooh
I just took that nigga bitch, I gave it back, ooh
Unapologetic, I run up the racks (I run up the racks)
Offend you when I say it, I won't take it back
[Bridge]
Ayy, seven figures, she like seven figures
Had to run up in her, had her in the sprinter
Now she all on Twitter, claimin' I'm her nigga
She won't get a text back, I'm on ten and she mad, ayy
[Chorus]
Fuck you mean? Bitch, I'm Baby Keem
Two-phone Baby Keem, fuck me if you want, ayy
Yes, I like you, girl, I don't want to front
Lay you in the bed, bae, let's cuddle up, uh, yeah
Fuck you mean? Bitch, I'm Baby Keem
Two-phone Baby Keem, fuck me if you want, ayy
Yes, I like you, girl, I don't want to front
Lay you in the bed, bae, let's cuddle up, uh, yeah
[Outro: Cardo]
Shoot through your car door, shoutout to Cardo
He's not done yet, nigga
Who the fuck told you we was done, nigga?
We levelin' up
Nigga, meet me in Transylvania, nigga
We goin' for the re-up, you already know what that means
Baby Keem was produced by Cardo.
In a July 2019 interview with Complex, Baby Keem explained how “Baby Keem” was created and why this eponymous song is important for him:
I’ve known Cardo for a minute, actually. I’ve been hitting him up on Twitter. I would hit him up like, “Yo, Cardo. Let’s work.” So, one day I just sent him one of...
