Baby Keem Drops ‘The Melodic Blue’ Visual on Prime Video, Featuring 3 Unreleased Tracks

Baby Keem unveiled The Melodic Blue visual to go along with his 2021 debut album Tuesday (Dec. 5) on Prime Video.

Directed by Savannah Setten, The Melodic Blue “takes you through Keem’s internal battle and leads you through fragments of memory and temptation as he navigates the depths of The Melodic Blue,” according to a press release. In addition to Baby Keem (real name Hykeem Carter) — who executive produced the visual alongside Kendrick Lamar and Dave Free — Amandla Stenberg, Shakira Ja’nai Paye, Francis Lovehall and Séréna Sy also star in the 20-minute visual. And to close out The Melodic Blue chapter, he presents three previously unreleased songs: “Rock Me,” “Torch” and “White Laces,” which features James Blake. At press time, the songs are not available on DSPs.

The Melodic Blue (the album) was released on Sept. 10, 2021, via pgLang and Columbia Records. The set debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard 200, and its hit single “Family Ties” (alongside his cousin Lamar) won a Grammy for best rap performance at the 2022 awards show. He later dropped its deluxe version, which featured PinkPantheress and Lil Uzi Vert as additional collaborators. But Keem first debuted the trailer for The Melodic Blue (the visual) at Camp Flog Gnaw this year, where he and Lamar headlined night one as The Hillbillies, the Grammy-nominated duo, as its eponymous single earned a best rap performance nod ahead of the 2024 Grammy Awards.

The Melodic Blue was written by pgLang and produced by Jamie Rabineau and Cornell Brown.
