DaBaby’s new song and music video could help fans who suffer from mental health struggles. DaBaby dropped a video to his brand new single, “Tough Skin.” The video shows a kid fighting with his family members and objects being thrown at him while hanging from a cross. Furthermore, the new song could be relatable to […]
Footage of DaBaby in interrogation with Miami Beach detectives has surfaced. The 12-hour video follows after a shooting outside of a restaurant where it takes an unexpected turn when the rap star is treated with snacks and served a custom Miranda waiver. In May of 2021, Jonathan “DaBaby” Kirk and his entourage were involved in […]
Recently released footage from Miami Beach detectives shows DaBaby being questioned by authorities about the shooting at Miami swank spot Prime 112 in Miami.
In the footage, DaBaby’s statements seem to contradict the testimony given by his bodyguard during his interrogation by Miami Police. After being red his Miranda Rights, DaBaby tells the story about how the shooting happened and how he fired the shots. As of now, DaBaby has not been charged with a crime.
A prevailing narrative, that has often been proven true, is that good music will successfully “un-cancel” an artist. Anyone can make a problematic statement or do something off-putting, but as long as the hits keep rolling in, they can continue on a somewhat normal path to stardom. DaBaby learned in 2021 that that may not be the case in his situation. The rapper was set to debut his own Burger King meal collaboration but revealed in a recent trip to Full Send Podcastthat the fast food powerhouse halted the effort after his homophobic comments at Rolling Loud Miami 2021.

In a clip posted to Twitter, the “Suge” artist shares that the “Jonathan Kirk Meal,” titled after his real name to push forward the authenticity of Burger King’s ingredients, was well underway. “I shot a commercial for it and everything,” he told the Kyle Forgeard Full Send co-hosts. However, the planning for it occurred right around the controversial Rolling Loud set that turned many against him and Burger King pulled the plug.
Though the rapper appeared to have come to terms with it, speaking on the matter a year later, there was an air of dismissiveness in his tone that matches the many defenses he made for his actions following the festival. For those curious about the meal itself, DaBaby shared that he insisted the burger had no mayonnaise to which a few of the Full Send co-hosts enthusiastically added their disdain for the condiment.

DaBaby was deemed charismatic and personable at the onset of his mainstream consciousness. His fun rap songs matched his silly demeanor and southern drawl. Most of all, he simply didn’t say anything off-putting that would offend a large community of people. That changed last year at Rolling Loud 2021, when he made multiple homophobic comments and surprised attendees by bringing out Tory Lanez, who has been all but blackballed after his ongoing legal battle with Megan Thee Stallion. DaBaby’s reputation continually soured as he double down on both actions and his recent comments about Donald Trump in his July 22 appearance on Full Send Podcast may not help his case.

The show’s host Kyle Forgeard asked the “Rockstar” rapper how he feels about the former United States President, to which DaBaby emphatically replied “Do I f*** with Trump? Now, hell yeah.” Forgeard followed up by asking “What made you f*** with him?” and the North Carolina artist answered with “Trump is a gangsta. N**** let Kodak out,” in reference to Trump pardoning Florida rapper Kodak Black on his final day in office.
Forgeard and his co-host added how Trump also pardoned Lil Wayne, to which DaBaby expressed relief. He pivoted his commentary to the media, saying “Media make an ant look like a f***** dinosaur.” The Full Send hosts then asked if he saw their interview with Donald Trump on the show which was deleted just 12 hours after its release.
Image repair doesn’t seem to be on DaBaby’s agenda, so time will tell what these comments add to his currently negative perception.
