"Babydoll" is a song by the American rapper and singer-songwriter Dominic Fike from his debut extended play Don't Forget About Me, Demos (2018). The track received widespread attention in early 2026, when it experienced a viral resurgence on online platforms such as TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram, which eventually led to it appearing on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for the first time and eventually peaking at number sixteen on the chart. It was subsequently released as a single by Columbia Records on February 27, 2026 and to Italian radio by Sony Music Italy on March 27, 2026.

Background

[edit]

According to Dominic Fike, via Instagram, "Eight years ago I made a tape in Florida in a room a friend let me live in while I was on house arrest, I didn't think about making the songs everyday it was more like eating or something I'd do in between living. In front of me everyday was a black epiphone, my laptop and the window overlooking the parking lot to keep an eye out for my P.O. Life at this time was fairly tumultuous and I felt like a heavy burden on everyone I interacted with, especially women. I just hated being poor so much. Looking back now that time ends up meaning the most. Before algorithms before other peoples words – even hearing from people I admire. Everything that comes after only makes it harder. So don't think you're missing something to chase what you want. It's probably already there. Thankful for everyone on this journey. Everyone listening to old songs and new. This one has only gotten more special to me".[1] "Babydoll" was originally released in October 2018 as the third track on Fike's breakout EP Don't Forget About Me, Demos. The song was initially not promoted as a single.[2]

Viral resurgence and reception

[edit]

In early 2026, "Babydoll" gained widespread online attention after becoming a popular sound in the social media site TikTok, contributing to an increase in streams and chart activity long after its original release.[3][4] "Babydoll" was also re-released on Spotify and other digital platforms alongside the track "White Keys", giving both tracks an increase in streaming presence and helping both tracks chart on the Billboard Hot 100. It has also since peaked in the top two on the Billboard Global 200 and reached streaming numbers upwards of 40,000,000.[5]
