DaBaby and Stunna 4 Vegas appear to have put their differences to rest to reunite with hopes of bringing their dynamic duo back. On Tuesday (November 12), DaBaby shared a series of posts celebrating their reunion, which began with an electrifying onstage moment at Monaleo’s concert at the Barclays Center in New York. According to DaBaby, the connection was orchestrated by Houston’s rising rap star Monaleo, who is currently dating Stunna 4 Vegas. “4X & BABY. A moment @ the Barclay’s provided by @themonaleo,” DaBaby captioned a video of the two performing together. He cemented their reunion with a post of the duo in the studio.

The chemistry between DaBaby and Stunna 4 Vegas dates back to their breakout 2018 collaboration, Animal, which Stunna credits as a turning point in his career. “Making that song with him changed my life,” Stunna told Billboard. Their synergy led to Stunna’s 2019 signing with Interscope Records and the release of his debut album, Big 4x. Their recent reunion suggests a fresh chapter for the duo, reigniting the collaborative energy that once defined their partnership. Fans eagerly await what comes next as the pair appears ready to pick up right where they left off. Whether on stage or in the studio, DaBaby and Stunna 4 Vegas prove that some bonds in hip-hop are unbreakable.

Multi-platinum, 8x Grammy-nominated superstar DaBaby has officially released the highly anticipated music video for his hit single, “REESHA ROULETTE.” Teased in a behind-the-scenes clip on Instagram earlier this week, the track is featured on DaBaby’s latest project, HOW TF IS THIS A MIXTAPE, which dropped on September 29th.

Kicking off with the bold declaration, “Girls Night Activated,” the music video unfolds into a lively celebration of friendship, joy, and empowerment. Viewers are treated to scenes filled with laughter, spontaneous dance sessions, and a carefree spirit that emphasizes the importance of living in the moment.

DaBaby Settled A 2021 Lawsuit Over Sucker-Punching A Hollywood Hills Property Owner At His Video Shoot

September 30, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Back in 2021, DaBaby was sued by the property owner of a Hollywood Hills rental house where he filmed a video without the owner’s permission after he allegedly sucker-punched the man, knocking out his tooth. The pugnacious rapper has one less legal worry after settling the lawsuit, two months after taking a plea deal to avoid a felony charge of battery, according to Billboard.

The plaintiff, Gary Pagar, said at the time that he rented DaBaby the mansion on the condition no more than 12 people would occupy it. However, DaBaby flouted the regulation, shooting a video at the location with over 40 people. Pragar said he saw all this taking place on the security cameras and drove over to poop the party; however, rather than capitulating, someone in DaBaby’s group allegedly punch Pragar in the face, took his phone, spit on him, and — to literally add insult to injury — stole some kitchenware.

They also did thousands in damage, including knocking out one of the security cameras, while only paying a portion of the rental bill. The terms of the settlement were not revealed. A criminal charge of felony battery was reduced to a misdemeanor with DaBaby’s July plea deal, while the rapper was ordered to pay restitution and given one year of probation.

DaBaby Returns With “HOW TF IS THIS A MIXTAPE?” After Two Years

September 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

After a 2024 that’s seen him drop a number of freestyles and the singles “Did It” and “Can’t Keep Keisha” on September 20, DaBaby is back with a new mixtape, his first project of the year and his first since 2022’s Baby On Baby 2. HOW TF IS THIS A MIXTAPE? suggests that the rapper, real name Jonathan Kirk, views this as a release on par with album-quality work. He is in his element. The production is 808-heavy, and he flows over the tracks, seldom deviating from what brought DaBaby to the dance. The 14-track, 33-minute mixtape has no featured artists on it. Recent efforts by DaBaby have rarely had features, so he’s keeping things consistent in that regard.

DaBaby’s new mixtape features plenty of production credits from Sean Da Firzt and KayoTheWizard. Although, there is also an appearance from former GOOD Music (via Very Good Beats) producer Charlie Heat. After a controversial period where DaBaby alienated many listeners with a homophobic tirade at Rolling Loud Miami in 2021 (a rant that also led to Top 40 radio stations across the US to pull his remix of Dua Lipa’s “Levitating” from their rotation), the former superstar has had to start from scratch. DaBaby has a dedicated, though smaller fanbase, one who continues to anticipate upcoming releases from the Charlotte rapper. He is surely grateful for their support, especially as he continues to battle legal issues and other difficulties. Stream the new release from DaBaby below.

DaBaby Hilariously Trolls Diddy By Purchasing Tons Of Baby Oil For A Music Video

September 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy being a topic on every website and news station signifies just how serious his situation is. It’s not just another celebrity downfall, it’s magnifying just how too much power can really hinder someone to make rational decisions. Diddy had been on top of hip-hop and just the music business in general. But after breaking down lawsuits, the raids, and resurfaced clips, it’s pretty clear he was going by it wrong. What this has also done is continued to reaffirm just how much we as Americans love making jokes about grave matters. Take for instance DaBaby, who bought tons of baby oil for an upcoming music video.

If you have been on social media lately, you may have come across tons of memes and TikTok’s running with this item found in Diddy’s homes. Admittedly, they can be quite humorous, and this one is no different. A major artist doing this is certainly taking things a step further, as this could garner millions of views if it makes the final cut. DaBaby brings his twist to it by purchasing an egregious amount of lube and “accidentally” dumping it on the street.

DaBaby Is So Wrong For This

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

He laughs when he realizes his cameraman is filming him pulling the stunt and even jokes that he hopes no bystander saw him do that. As expected, some are finding it funny, but there are quite a few who find it insensitive. “This is the lamest thing that I have ever seen”, one IG user says in The Neighborhood Talk‘s comment section. “He never bounced back from being cancelled ”, another adds. We can only imagine even more people will be upset if and when this makes the official visuals.

What are your thoughts on DaBaby mocking Diddy with the baby oil? Do you think we have an issue as a country by making a joke of everything? Or was this just plain funny? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding DaBaby and Diddy.

DaBaby Leaves Off Two-Pack Of “Did It” & “Can’t Keep Keisha” Amid New Project Announcement

September 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

“Let’s gooo”, is what a lot of DaBaby fans have to be saying right now because he’s got a new tape on the way. Just several hours ago, the Cleveland born, Charlotte bred rapper made this big announcement on his Instagram account. “HOW TF IS THIS A MIXTAPE?” GOOD DOPE SELL ITSELF NEXT FRIDAY. 14 HITS.” A gift before the album Oh yea… “CAN’T KEEP KEISHA” out now bae. ”, DaBaby adds. “Threw another lil surprise out today too. LETS FLOOD. NEXT WEEK WE GO CRAZY ”.

What this essentially all means is that DaBaby is going to be dropping HOW TF IS THIS A MIXTAPE? next Friday, September 27. There’s going to be 14 new songs, with two of them out now. They include “Can’t Keep Keisha” and “Did It”. With this two-pack, you are getting some duality. On the former, you are getting some more introspective and personal bars about family and love. DaBaby also tries to sing some of the chorus, which comes across just as how you might expect. However, we can appreciate the delivery switch up. Then, on the latter, you’ll hear more traditional DaBaby which is that aggressive, Pit bull-like demeanor over a booming trap instrumental.

“Can’t Keep Keisha” / “Did It” – DaBaby

Quotable Lyrics From “Can’t Keep Keisha”:

I’ll give up everything I got just to get my brother back
If they with me and they standin’ on business, I’ll stand in front of that
That’s the type of man I am
I’ma keep on goin’ through hell and back to be a family man (N****)
You play with my family, you get whacked, I’ll shoot your cameraman (N****)
I’ve been around the world, I’m talkin’ from Hong Kong to Amsterdam (N****)

DaBaby Appears To Respond To DaniLeigh’s Brother’s Lawsuit On New Diss Track

August 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

DaBaby is making his feelings known on wax. A few days ago, an update surrounding the ongoing feud between the rapper and his ex-girlfriend DaniLeigh’s brother came through. His name is Brandon Bills, and he is seeking $4 million following an alleged physical attack from the hitmaker at a bowling alley. According to In Touch Weekly, Bills says he’s been dealing with “severe injuries, psychological damage, and medical bills”. Apparently, he’s been trying to get permission to send out this lawsuit toward DaBaby since July 2023 and he’s just now allowed to do so.

Overall, Bills says he was assaulted for no reason, so there really isn’t a whole lot to go off of. Perhaps, more details will arise when this goes to court. DaBaby seems to not be worried, though, especially based on certain bars off a new track he just dropped. “LAWSUIT ON A WEDNESDAY” is the title and its one of his YouTube exclusive releases. He doesn’t waste time at getting right into things, addressing it on the chorus.

DaBaby Labels Brandon Bills As Soft

“He was gangsta before, now you suin’ me, huh? / That tough s***, he don’t wanna do it no more / Out the spot, ain’t want nothin’ to do wit’ the wh**e“. However, DaBaby doesn’t let up from there, as he taunts Bills in his verses, too. “Bark like a big dog, but he really a puppy / Your Honor, I’m scared of this man, look at him“. Outside of the bars, fans seem to be enjoying the track. “U need to get sued more often if it’s gone make u drop hard shi like this ”, one user replies in the YT comment section.

What are your thoughts on DaBaby possibly addressing the lawsuit from DaniLeigh’s brother on this new track? Do you think the title, “LAWSUIT ON A WEDNESDAY”, is a dead giveaway? How does the song sound outside of the bars in focus? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.
