The video for 'Babydoll' cfeatures Fike performing in his car as it moves through a car wash. The video also includes a fresh a capella addition at the end.
Reflecting on the origins of 'Babydoll', Dominic says, "8 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 people’s 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.
