Track seventeen on [*$WAMI$*](/albums/wami/), **Running with the Shaggy** with **Babidi** on vocals, after [*Mother of Exile*](/songs/mother-of-exile/) and before the SmarterChild pair ([*Smarter Child (Slight Return)*](/songs/smarter-child-slight-return/), [*Rest in Peace Smarter Child*](/songs/rest-in-peace-smarter-child/)). Adjacent to [*Shaggy Connections*](/songs/shaggy-connections/) (Louis Cole drums, no Babidi feature).

Not a *Dragon Ball $d* album cut: it lives on the 2018 collage LP that predates the hip-hopera. Babidi’s featured run here sets up the fuller cartoon-rap arc on the 2020 record.
