DaBaby is possibly one of the most problematic rappers on the scene. However, he also has a very loyal fanbase and releases good music. Is this a case where he can be separated from his art? The rapper's legal issues began back in 2018 when he was involved in a deadly altercation in a North Carolina Walmart. This was before he had even signed to a record label. Despite initially claiming self-defense, there are now doubts about the legitimacy of his story after security footage emerged. He was also sued by a concert promoter for assault in early 2020, resulting in his arrest. Although he denied the attack, the incident was caught on video.
In March 2020, he allegedly slapped a female fan while walking to the stage for a performance. He then made homophobic comments during his Rolling Loud set in July 2021 and collaborated with Tory Lanez after Megan Thee Stallion's shooting. In February 2022, DaBaby and his entourage attacked DaniLeigh's brother at a bowling alley. Unfortunately, this is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to DaBaby's controversial behavior. He has yet to show remorse for most of his actions. Despite all of that, Da Baby continues to push through release music.
DaBaby Returns With Dance-Worthy EP
Now, DaBaby has returned with a new EP named Call Da Fireman. On it, DaBaby dips his toes into some dance beats. "SHAKE SUMN" is a banger that sounds like it will absolutely be playing in the club this weekend. It's almost sure to start some sort of TikTok dance trend, as well. With the way the platform has taken off, it wouldn't be a surprise if DaBaby made this song specifically with that in mind. "I don't know how to dance but can lean," he raps. "I make the ghetto b*tches put they hands on they knees."
Call Da Fireman doesn't have a lot of substance, but it's a fun three-song EP. It's definitely a good release to put out right before summer. However shady DaBaby's past may be, his ability to create catchy tracks is undeniable. What do you think of the rapper's new EP? Let us know in the comments below!
