"Does anyone have Baby Keem's Number?"

Those words appeared onscreen as Fred again.. played what was a then-unreleased collaboration with Baby Keem at his unprecedented nine-night run at LA's Shrine Expo Hall. After he first debuted the song at a show in Edinburgh, it quickly became hotly anticipated.

Fred continued to tease the song throughout 2023, but fans didn't have to wait long after "leavemealone" officially hit streaming platforms today. The drum & bass track expertly samples vocals from Keem's "south africa" and "BULLIES," seamlessly fusing the once-somber tracks with a buoyant, lighthearted melody that breathes new life into the original compositions.
