In the 95th edition of Midnight Heat (2025), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “baby give me more” by Artemas featuring Mareux.
Ah, bring on Midnight Heat! Wait – it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot 🥵 at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo-laden, and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. These risqué, unapologetic records often raise eyebrows and temperature alike. In the 95th edition of Midnight Heat (2025), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “baby give me more” by Artemas.
“Take me out tonight / Emily, you rule my mind,”
Artemas (Artemas Diamandis, b. 1999) asserts in the intro and eventual bridge of “baby give me more”. He continues, “Release your sweet divine / And if you’re not religious / I want you to euthanize me.” Euthanize? Wow 😮! Gen-Z musicians just hit differently, don’t they? “Baby give me more” is the seventh track from Diamandis’ third mixtape, LOVERCORE. Artemas, featured guest Mareux (Aryan Ashtiani, b. 1992), and Daintree penned “baby” while Artemas and Daintree produced it. Like many an Artemas track, desire is potent to the nth degree.
Mareux assists with the sexiness of this LOVERCORE highlight. In the memorable chorus, twice he sings, “Baby, give me more,” and adds, “If your heart is in your hips / Baby, give me more.” Heart in your hips, huh? Now that’s a line! Artemas is dramatic and indulgent in the first verse, consumed by her: “I can’t relieve myself / Only you can touch me right / You don’t even have to try.” Hmm, by relieving yourself, dude, are you… You know… Moving on. Mareux brings the spice to the pre-chorus, once again, mentioning heart in hips, as well as “Stroke your body from the floor, biting on your lips.” 😈 Of course, you knew Artemas wasn’t going to allow Mareux all of the naughty lines. Also, you knew he wasn’t going without dropping a few f-bombs, either. “I want you on top, in my face / Now we’re living babe, now we’re fucking living, babe,” he sings in the second verse. Added to the mix are pills, tripping, and an unrecognizable Artemas, who informs us, “My heart can’t take rejection anymore, anymore.” “Baby give me more” is not only dark lyrically, but it also features a dark musical backdrop. It is set in a minor key, the synths are enigmatic, hypnotic, and mesmerizing, while the beat provides a firm anchor. All said and done, the intriguing and talented Artemas and Mareux do the damn thing on “baby give me more”. It’s a surefire vibe.
