Source: Radio One Digital / @Stretchd_34 for Radio One Digital DaBaby might definitely be feeling himself a tad bit too much. Is it cap? Or is it a fact? That’s what a lot of Hip-Hop fans are debating and mostly leaning towards C A P. DaBaby made the bold claim under a photo he shared on the gram of himself and Lil Wayne revealing the two rappers have been collaborating on music. In the caption triggering Twitter, he wrote: “Best rappers alive.” A rapper feeling himself shouldn’t surprise anyone. In fact, it’s insanely common. DaBaby has been on an incredible streak since his meteoric rise, making the jump from one of Hip-Hop’s most underrated rappers to one of the genre’s most sought-after acts, and he is showing no signs of letting up. With stardom comes hate, with many now calling the r...
Source: SMG John Paul Jones Arena / SMG John Paul Jones Arena DaBaby’s have a helluva year but even though it seems like he’s just getting started, the young rapper is already contemplating his life after retirement. Speaking to XXL about his post-rap game plans, the North Carolina representative revealed that he’s closer to hanging up the mic than anyone would’ve anticipated. Thinking about developing the five artists he currently has inked to his record label, Billion Dollar Baby Entertainment, the “Rockstar” rapper suggested that he’d be bowing out of the rap game in a mere 5 years from now. No, seriously he did. Feeling like the time is coming when he’ll have to be more generous with his time and put his energy behind his up and coming record label, the North Carolina native foresees a...
Source: Kevin Rawls / Radio One Digital Fame, celebrity and money do not buy happiness and DaBaby got this harsh reminder in tragic fashion. It has been confirmed that his brother has killed himself.

Source: Kevin Rawls / Radio One Digital Even with all his positive accomplishments to date, DaBaby just can’t seem to escape negative energy wherever he touches down. The latest incident came over the weekend as TMZ is reporting that while DaBaby was shooting a video in his hometown of Charlotte, North Carolina, things went left real quick and a shootout ensued close to where the rapper was filming his clip. Video of the incident began circulating around social media over the weekend and in it you can see a crowd kicking it on the scene before sounds of tires screeching and gunfire erupting began to go off. Seemingly getting closer and closer to the crowd, people began running for cover before recordings of the incident stopped. While TMZ is reporting that one person was injured it is uncl...
Source: Kevin Rawls / Radio One Digital For a few weeks earlier this year it seemed like DaBaby was making headlines for putting hands on someone wherever he touched down and now it appears that he might have to pay up for one of his transgressions. TMZ is reporting that Cristofher Pocasangre has decided to sue DaBaby for allegedly beating him up at a hotel in LA last December after he took a picture of the Kirk rapper without his consent. According to Pocasangre, he was working at the Marriott hotel near Beverly Hills when he heard the rap star was at his hotel. Initially he asked DaBaby for a pic at which point DaBaby refused, but Cristofher decided to snap a selfie anyway with the rapper playing the background. That turned out to be a decision he soon regretted. Now, get this … Pocasang...

A few days ago, the Blame It on Baby rapper took to Instagram to post a picture of a spam text from the Trump campaign which was soliciting donations for the former business mogul’s 2020 campaign to which DaBaby simply responded, “F*CK YALL.” Mic. Dropped. Needless to say, the next message from the campaign was informing Baby that he’d been unsubscribed from any more messages. We figure someone got the message. Still, the Cha...
