"Demon" continues a busy 2026 for Babyfxce E that includes the recent premiere of such fiery singles as "It's The Summer (feat. FoxBD)" and "Never Ending Run," both joined by official music videos streaming HERE. E kicked off his milestone summer by being named to XXL's prestigious Freshman Class 2026, complete with an official 2026 XXL Freshman Freestyle. That coveted honor was quickly followed with "Bussin," available HERE alongside an official music video streaming HERE. E's hot streak began earlier this year with his debut studio album, Da Realest, hailed by Pitchfork for "recreating the atmosphere that ruled Flint's airwaves and blocks this past decade" and available everywhere now HERE.
