Rappers Yung Gravy and bbno$ (baby no money), collectively known as Baby Gravy, has cooked something waiting to be devoured.
After three years, the dynamic duo is back with their long-awaited third collaborative LP, Baby Gravy 3, scheduled for release this August 25. Meanwhile, the duo’s singles from the album, titled “Goodness Gracious,” followed by “You Need Jesus,” and most recently, “Nightmare on Peachtree Street” (featuring Freddy Dredd) are already available on major streaming platforms.
“Goodness Gracious” is characterized by high-energy verses that lead to its chantable chorus accompanied by upbeat guitar twirls and handclaps, topped with Yung Gravy’s signature drip and bbno$’s swag. “You Need Jesus,” on the other hand, is propelled by church-style harmonies with bells and guitars layered with satirical lyrics. These tracks stir up the simmering sauce in the duo’s pot—Baby Gravy 3.
“Nightmare on Peachtree Street” is distinguished by eerie strings slide that underneath skittering 808s as Gravy stalks the beat with a laidback flow. bbno$ and Freddie Dredd match this energy with showstopping bars of their own living up to the final message of, “This right here is one-hundred percent certified slapper.”
“There’s not a miss in the whole album,” Yung Gravy said about their upcoming album, highlighting how the lyrics and production are better than the previous collaborations they’ve done together.
“It’s definitely the best work that we made together,” bbno$ added.
Among the tracks in the album, Yung Gravy shared that his favorite songs are “Nightmare on Peachtree Street” and “Super Smash Bros,” while bbno$’s faves are “Onomatopeia” and “C’est la Vie” featuring 88Rising’s Rich Brian.

“We became friends and just started to make music together,” he said.
With both of them producing viral hits, when asked if there’s any pressure coming from expectations to release another viral song, bbno$ said, “At the end of the day, nothing matters.”
“When we work together, it’s for them, not for us,” Yung Gravy added.
