WiFi

On D.R.A.M and Erykah Badu's "WiFi," two generations of funksters unite on the same cosmic network.

A day before the release of his debut album, D.R.A.M. has shared one of Big Baby D.R.A.M.'s most anticipated collabs, "WiFi. The song features Ms. Erykah Badu, who's really made an effort to show love to young artists this year. She's one of three features on Big Baby D.R.A.M., along with Young Thug ("Misunderstood") and Lil Yachty, who guests on the previously released single "Broccoli," which is currently the No. 1 rap song in the country. 

Badu's output this year has largely consisted of tongue-in-cheek plays on near-universal technologies (though ones that weren't nearly as ubiquitous during the years when she came to fame). It began a year ago when she remixed "Hotline Bling" -- which many, Big Baby especially, believed to be somewhat of a ripoff of D.R.A.M.'s "Cha Cha." She then released an entire mixtape, But You Caint Use My Phone, based around the "hotline" concept. With "WiFi," she's now taking her mystique into the Internet realm. The song is still riddled with her classic brand of funk and psychedelic sensuality. 

Check out the Big Baby D.R.A.M. tracklist here, and let us know if you'll be copping the album tomorrow (Oct. 21). 

Quotable Lyrics

Boy I got wifi
And my service is nice at that
And it comes at no price at that
Let me know where your iPhone at

- Erykah Badu
