The TV plays softly in the background — a cartoon looping the same cheerful song.
Mother (frustrated):
“Why you always coming late? You said six. It’s almost seven.”
Father (defensive, tired):
“I told you already, traffic was mad. I rushed straight here.”
Mother:
“It’s always something with you. Every time. You don’t take this serious.”
A pause. The TV volume lowers.
Father (quiet):
“Don’t do this in front of the child, please.”
Mother:
“So what? They need to see how you really are.”
A toy drops. Small footsteps move away.
Father (hurt):
“I’m trying to be here. I’m trying to be a father.”
Mother:
“Trying isn’t enough.”
Silence.
Father (calm, resigned):
“If me being here just brings fighting… maybe I should step back.”
This isn’t just a scene.
It’s a reality many families live — quietly, repeatedly, and often without resolution.
Jamaican recording artist Della Rhymes brings this tension into focus with his upcoming single Baby Mother Drama, a record that speaks honestly about co-parenting conflict, emotional exhaustion, and the unseen weight placed on children caught in the middle.
Produced by Verzus on Tha Beat, “Baby Mada drama” is rooted in storytelling. The production is intentionally restrained, allowing space for the lyrics to breathe and the message to land without distraction. It’s a song built on dialogue, reflection, and uncomfortable truth.
Rather than pointing fingers, the record explores how unresolved issues between parents can turn everyday interactions into emotional flashpoints. It highlights how children often become silent witnesses — absorbing tension, confusion, and hurt they never asked to carry.
Della Rhymes has consistently leaned into this type of honesty. Since gaining national attention on Magnum Kings & Queens of Dancehall, he has remained committed to music shaped by lived experience and personal accountability. His recent EP, M.E (My Experience), reinforced that direction, offering reflections on family, growth, and perseverance.
“Baby Mada Drama” sharpens that focus even further. It’s not designed for quick listens or surface-level reactions. Instead, it challenges listeners to sit with difficult questions:
What does showing up really mean?
When does trying fall short?
And how do parents move forward without damaging the ones caught in between?
With this release, Della Rhymes delivers more than a song — he delivers a conversation starter. One rooted in responsibility, emotional maturity, and the realities many prefer not to discuss out loud.
