DaBaby may have had a fall from grace, but that hasn't stopped him from putting out new music. In September, he released his album "Baby On Baby 2" to limited fanfare. In fact, the album sold 86 percent less than his heavily praised "Blame It on Baby" in 2020. That project debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, spawning the hit "Rockstar." Unfortunately, since his now infamous homophobic Rolling Loud rant and overnight falling out with Megan Thee Stallion, DaBaby's career is much quieter these days. However, he is pushing forward with forthcoming releases, previewing a snippet that sounds like a TikTok God-send.
Over the weekend, DaBaby shared a video showing himself enjoying some Easter family time. In the clip, several kiddos groove to an unreleased record from DaBaby. The kids moved around the living room in a way that felt like a new internet dance challenge waiting to happen. "Call the fireman; she a hot girl. Put her out. Ooh, I just broke a sweat in this b*tch; get a towel," DaBaby raps over the fast-paced beat.
DaBaby Has Released Several Singles Recently
At first listen, the snippet sounds like a cross between Miami Bass and something concocted by the geniuses behind Lil Uzi Vert's "Just Wanna Rock." While poised to be a twerk anthem, it's unclear if this record will ever see the light of day. What's also unknown is who may have produced such a lively record. TikTok-friendly sounds may be a wise direction for the 31-year-old as he struggles to return to the top spot. In March, he debuted a song titled "Blank" alongside R&B icon Anthony Hamilton, though it didn't make much noise.
Controversies have overshadowed the momentum he spent the past five years building. His first album was 2019's "Baby on Baby." This record solidified his position in hip-hop, filled with quick punchlines and fun visuals for several singles, including "Suge." As one of his biggest hits, "Suge," surged to number 7 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. This became his first chart entry. Hopefully, DaBaby can reclaim the hearts of the masses, even if the possibilities appear grim.
