In the history of sampling screaming babies, there is perhaps only one track that is worth your time – Babyfather’s “Meditation”, produced by Dean Blunt and Arca. As its name suggests, the song is a rumination – in this case on having “twenty bands”, aka hella cash, which is repeated over and over again a la Rae Sremmurd’s “No Flex Zone” but with a diversion into even weirder oddball territory. It’s a great track, listen here. Then peep below to hear A$AP Rocky stroll across that same instrumental in a track he released last night called “MONEY BAGS FREESTYLE”.
The release is part of a new project, which for now seems to be titled DUMMIE. Earlier this week Rocky released the tracks “ABOVE” and “☆☆☆☆☆ 5IVE $TAR$”, both of which feature the same artwork. Fans have speculated that the name DUMMIE (which also looks suspiciously like the dummymag.com logo?!) is referring to a collection of dummy tracks (read: throwaways) from a new record.

The releases have come off the back of a recent reemergence for Rocky on social media, during which he has also released a DVD called AWGE that sits somewhere between Risky Roadz and Pharrell’s Ice Cream skate team videos. Watch a bootlegged but still very available 30-minute select from the film below.
