Background
In a 2026 interview, Baby Keem cited XXXTentacion as a major influence on Die for My Bitch. Keem stated that the mixtape was inspired by the late rapper's approach to music, particularly his ability to blend singing and rapping. According to Keem, XXXTentacion influenced him to realize that he did not have to be exclusively a singer or a rapper and could excel at both. He further cited the song "My Ex" as an example of XXXTentacion's influence on the project.[3][4]
