After wrapping his run with SahBabii on his Resurrection Tour, Atlanta-based rapper Raq Baby unleashes his brand new track called ‘Mental Breakdown’. On the track, he talks about making it out of the hood or his previous circumstances, the essential need to never get caught slipping without a strap, drilling and the reality of a rival using his name for clout. If you are an international reader, it might be your first time reading his name, but he’s achieved feats like earning #8 on Apple Music’s All Genre Albums Chart and #3 on the Hip-Hop/Rap Chart.

Before the month is over, Raq Baby will embark on another headline show in Charlotte, North Carolina on June 27, which sold out in less than forty-eight hours. In addition, the Chicago-born artist recently sold out his first headline shows in Chicago and Atlanta and is set to play Flex Fest next month in Denver, Colorado, alongside Quavo.

According to the comms, there may be an official music video underway. In the meantime, let’s stream the official audio below to catch his vibe.

Editor’s Note (June 25, 2025, 11:00 PM EST): At the time of writing this article, the music video wasn’t available. Now, it is! You can watch the rising star perform his latest track in a multi-car garage.
