"On Me" is a song by American rapper Lil Baby, released alongside "Errbody", on December 4, 2020, a day after his 26th birthday.[1] [2] The song was written alongside producers Chi Chi and Evrgrn.[3] The official remix of the song with fellow American rapper Megan Thee Stallion was released on April 27, 2021.[4]

Background and composition

After a snippet of the song was teased on Instagram,[5] Lil Baby confirmed the release of the song on his birthday. Presumably, the song was dedicated to his girlfriend Jayda Cheaves.[6] Tom Breihan of Stereogum has called the song a "triumphant victory-lap track".[7]

Music video

The music video was released alongside the single. It was directed by Keemotion, and co-directed by Lil Baby. The video shows "expensive rides" with the rapper and his friends;[8] Baby travels with them and is seen on a private jet, jet skiing and cruising on a yacht.[9] [10]

Remix

In March 2021, Lil Baby revealed on social media the possibility of a remix of "On Me" featuring a female artist.[11] On April 27, 2021, the remix was released alongside a music video, as a collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion.

Remix video

Directed by Mike Ho, the music video for the remix features the rappers as "the rulers of a cream kingdom".[12] It opens with Lil Baby in front of an "icy fortress", backdropped by a mountain of ice crystals and falling snowflakes.[13] [14] While he performs his verse, Megan appears beside him lip-syncing. She then raps atop a smoky volcano wearing a black latex bodysuit, which is "fittingly ornamented with lava graphics".
