031Baby, the Durban-born rapper and producer, is making serious noise in South Africa’s new wave of hip-hop. His latest single, “FEDERAL,” dropped and is already shaping up to be one of his most powerful releases yet.

“FEDERAL” is a high-energy record that calls out people who speak out of turn and move without integrity, the kind 031Baby boldly labels as “feds.” The track blends hard-hitting trap elements with his signature Durban bounce and sharp storytelling, reflecting the frustration, ambition, and resilience of today’s youth.

This release follows a strong run of collaborations and genre-blending tracks that have showcased his range, from trap-driven anthems to Afrobeat-inspired crossovers. At just 21, 031Baby continues to prove himself as one of the most consistent and authentic young voices shaping the future of South African music.
