Baby Keem - Ca$ino

Baby Keem - Ca$ino: A Bold Comeback and a New Era

After nearly five years away from solo albums, American rapper Baby Keem has returned with his highly anticipated sophomore studio project, Ca$ino, released on February 20, 2026 via pgLang / Columbia Records.

Building on the genre-shaking success of his debut The Melodic Blue (2021), Keem uses Ca$ino to explore new thematic ground while staying rooted in the innovative hip-hop sound that made him one of the most exciting young voices in rap.

The album’s features are lean but impactful - from rap legend Too $hort to longtime collaborator and cousin Kendrick Lamar - most notably on the playful and downtempo single “Good Flirts.”

This return collaboration with Kendrick continues a creative partnership that fans have followed from breakout tracks like “Range Brothers” and “Family Ties.”

Thematically, Ca$ino mixes introspective storytelling, personal reflection, and signature lyrical bravado. The title and aesthetic nod to gambling - an extended metaphor for risk, growth, and chance in life and art.

The production credits read like a who’s who of modern rap producers, including Baby Keem himself alongside Beach Noise, Cardo, Danja, FnZ, Sounwave, and others - offering a mix of atmospheric textures, hard-hit rhythms, and unexpected sonic twists.

Ca$ino marks a pivotal moment in Baby Keem’s trajectory - his second full album, arriving after a long creative silence and amplified by major collaborations, documentary storytelling, and a global tour. It’s a project that blends personal reflection with high-impact production and confirms Keem’s continued relevance in 2026 hip-hop
