"5AM" is a song by American rapper Lil Baby, released on November 14, 2024. It was produced by Wheezy and Sean Momberger.
The song features hard-hitting production. Lyrically, it focuses on Lil Baby's emotions and pressures from expectations and being a celebrity. He discusses these various pitfalls, such as struggling with vulnerability and survivor's guilt, and the police trying to connect him to certain crimes. Lil Baby ends the song with a message that his next album will soon be released.
Sha Be Allah of The Source wrote the song "highlights the Atlanta superstar's charisma and Teflon's resiliency, ultimately the track's driving forces." Armon Sadler of Vibe gave a negative review, commenting "'5AM' is pretty boring, admittedly. It continues a harsh reality for the Atlanta star: his rap style, flows, delivery, production, and content have not elevated in years. Hearing the same guy since 2020's My Turn is a bit disheartening for those amazed by the hunger and consistency he displayed that year and the year prior."
The music video was directed by Skeeboe and premiered alongside the single.
