DaBaby had himself an unfortunate incident at Rolling Loud back in 2021. Overall, he gave fans a homophobic rant that eventually went viral. Subsequently, he lost a whole lot of brand deals and for a while, his career seemed dead in the water. However, over the course of 2023, he has been able to rebuild his image a bit. His music has gotten a bit of success with his latest releases and he has also started directing music videos for other artists. Needless to say, he is doing well for himself.

Recently, DaBaby was a guest on Shannon Sharpe's show, Club Shay Shay. During this appearance, the two got to speak on a plethora of different topics. Overall, it was an interesting conversation in which the artist spoke on his fateful Rolling Loud performance. Ultimately, he claims that he was going through hard times when it took place. However, the entire thing taught him about himself and it has since put him in a better headspace.

It’s like ‘Boy I wish I had …$200 million, y’all robbed me.’ I don’t feel like that. I really feel like that’s a blessing in disguise at this point in my life and I just came to that realization in the past two weeks.”  It seems like the artist has grown a lot from what went down.
