Baby Tate is finally returning with new music. On Wednesday (February 2), the 2022 HipHopDX Rising Star announced she plans to drop two new singles on February 18 titled “What’s Love” and “Slut Him OUT.”
The upcoming singles are the first new material from the 25-year-old rapper since 2021 and come a week after she finally earned her first Billboard Hot 100 hit on January 24.
The 2022 HipHopDX Rising Star accomplished the massive feat thanks to her work on the JID and 21 Savage track “Surround Sound,” which debuted at No. 90 on the Billboard Hot 100.
“WOWWWWWWWWWWW! Baby’s first Billboard Hot 100 entry!” Baby Tate wrote on Instagram. “Can’t afford to stop now. Thank you Jiddy for having me on ur song I love u foreverever FOREVEREVER. AHHHH I’m bout to go take 21 shots of 42! Jk bit I’m bout to go do something idk what yet.”

Baby Tate hasn’t released a stand-alone project since 2020’s After The Rain EP, which featured appearances from Flo Milli and 6LAK, but the “Pedi” rapper ushered in 2022 by revealing herself to be an ambassador to Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty brand.
The blossoming artist initially connected with RiRi in October 2021 after online trolls criticized her body weight following her AfroPunk set. She joined the Savage X Fenty team with other ambassadors such as Megan Thee Stallion, Rico Nasty and HipHopDX’s 2021 Rising Star Flo Milli.
Baby Tate also teased her plans to drop a double mixtape in 2022 last month as well.
