Skilla Baby Claims Detroit Doesn’t Have A Consensus GOAT Rapper

Skilla Baby has build a lot of buzz in the 2020s. The rapper protege of Sada Baby has established a unique sound and delivery. He’s also vocal about being from Detroit, and repping the city’s history of legendary artists. That being said, Skilla Baby does not prescribe to the theory that Eminem is the best the city has to offer. He said as much during a recent appearance on This Is Keke Palmer podcast. He not only pushed back against the Em theory, but articulated a greater issue within Detroit hip-hop.

Skilla Baby had no claiming that Eminem does not have a stranglehold over Detroit hip-hop the way the rest of the country assumes. “I don’t know because if you think number-wise Eminem is the best Detroit rapper,” the rapper posited. “But the gag is nobody would say that in Detroit.” He conceded that he was a fan of Shady when he was younger, but notes that the rapper’s status among younger Detroit artists has faded over time. “I was an Eminem fan as a kid,” he noted. “I’m a fan of Eminem but do we consider him our best rapper? I don’t think Detroit does.”

Skilla Baby Feels That Detroit Doesn’t Have A GOAT

Keke Palmer knew that her guest was veering into controversial territory, and asked Skilla who his pick for Detroit’s best is. He didn’t named a single artist, but rather a revolving door of them. In Skilla Baby’s estimation the mantle for the city’s best is constantly changing. “Everybody had their turn being Detroit’s favorite rapper,” he theorized. “Sada Baby had his turn, Tee Grizzley had a turn, [42] Dugg had a turn, Babyface Ray had a turn.” Skilla Baby also have love to some of the younger artists who have brought attention to Detroit in recent years. Selflessly, he didn’t include himself.

“Veeze is one of Detroit’s best rappers now,” Skilla added. “Baby Smoove, Big Kizz – a lot of artists had their turn. Rocaine… Everybody had their turn being the best in the city.” The rapper claimed that the lack of a definitive GOAT Detroit rapper is a bug and not a feature, however. “What we lack is consistency,” he asserted. “Nobody’s consistently been Detroit’s best rapper.” Maybe Skilla Baby is one of the artists who can correct this perceived inconsistency.

Nicki Minaj Treated A ‘Pink Friday 2 World Tour’ Concertgoer To Their Own Medicine After They Tossed Something At The Rapper Onstage

Nicki Minaj and Cardi B may not see eye to eye, but they do agree on one thing — disrespectful concertgoers should be dealt with immediately.

Yesterday (April 20), during Nicki’s Pink Friday 2 World Tour stop in Detroit, Michigan, an attendee attempted to ruin the event for everyone. As Nicki rapped her crossover hit “Starships” (despite vowing never perform it anymore), a ticket holder seemingly tossed an object at the musician.

Fortunately, the item didn’t make contact with Nicki. Instead, she blocked the trinket, then she hurled it back in the direction that it was thrown from. In the clip captured by a bystander, venue security was seen working their way to the section in question. However, it is unclear if the culprit was tracked down. The show continued without any further interruption.

At another point of the concert, Nicki surprised fans with a few guest cameos. To pay homage to the Motor City, she brought out two rappers from the city. One of those musicians was none other than hometown hero Big Sean. The duo performed their 2011 “Dance (Ass)” Remix.

Fellow Detroit native, Sada Baby, made his way onto the stage for a performance of his 2020 single “Whole Lotta Choppas.” Nicki was sure to deliver her viral verse from the song’s remix for all to recite back to her.

Nicki Minaj hasn’t addressed the incident online. So, all’s well that ends well.

Sada Baby Drops His Second Tape Of The Year With “SkuBop”

Sada Baby, a rapper hailing from Detroit, Michigan, has made a name for himself by creating high-energy bangers. He does not have a massive fanbase. However, it seems he is more focused on creating what he enjoys and it has still led to a stable career. Baby got his start, at least on streaming, in 2016. A handful of singles with some more local names got the ball rolling for him. His singles catalog is massive, as well as his album discography. It is especially impressive for someone who has been in the game for just seven years.

The project that really set him up for a career was his 2020 tape, Skuba Sada 2. Two tracks became popular amongst Sada Baby’s fans were “Aktivated” and “Pressin” with the late King Von. In addition, the follow-up, Skuba Sada 2.5 in 2022, also contained another hit, “Whole Lotta Choppas (Remix)” with Nicki Minaj.

Sada Baby Puts Tommie Lee On Blast For Comments About Chris Brown’s Baby

Tommie Lee’s erratic behavior backstage at a Chris Brown concert led to a flurry of responses across social media. The Love & Hip Hop star apparently threw a fit following a concert where she pointed out that Chris Brown’s son was in attendance. Baddies star Rollie said Natalie Nunn got them backstage to the show but as they left the section, Tommie got a door slammed on her. “Why the f*ck did Tommie see Chris Brown baby and was like, ‘Oh, his baby is so cute.’ They grabbed the baby and put him in the room. She smacked the door in,” Rollie recalled, claiming that Breezy’s security got aggressive with them.

Shortly after, Tommie shared her side of the story but she wasn’t holding back her tongue. She corroborated that Breezy’s team slammed the door on her. However, she didn’t understand why Chris’ team was particularly aggressive towards her. “Imagine me, for a baby that ain’t even mine, to knock a door down. Is you f*ckin’ serious?” she said before launching into an expletive-laden tirade against Breezy’s son. “I don’t care about your baby. F*ck your baby,” she continued. “And f*ck his daddy, too. The f*ck? Really. Like, girl. I ain’t pressed ’bout no motherf*ckin baby. F*ck him. All y’all look albino as f*ck.”

Sada Baby Says Tommie Lee’s Behavior Is “Wild”

The internet certainly had plenty of things to say regarding Tommie Lee’s clip. Social media users began calling her out for insulting a poor child and many others simply laughed at her reaction. However, Sada Baby felt it was out of pocket for Tommie to go in on a baby at a concert. “Screaming curse words n kickin a door down in the direction of a baby is wild,” he wrote. “Y’all be lettin these reality TV girls do the wildest shit.”

Afterward, he said that if that had happened in his hometown of Detroit, someone would’ve likely assaulted her. “It woulda happened in Detroit wit out her gettin smacked at least. Not saying I woulda did it but I would’n’t have had to. It’s just the principle,” he wrote. He stated that Tommie’s behavior is why he avoids Instagram. “I’m goin back to twitch n TikTok where all the energy is positive and genuine,” he added. Check out Sada Baby’s comments above

Sada Baby, Big Sean, And Hit-Boy Throw A Mansion Bash In The Psychedelic ‘Little While’ Video

Detroit rapper Sada Baby first came to prominence with the fun-loving, goofy dances he did in the video for his breakout viral hit “Bloxk Party,” so it’s only right that he returns to such shenanigans in the video for “Little While,” which has even more potential for hit status — at least, algorithmically, thanks to its guest spots from Big Sean and Hit-Boy.

Much like the video for “Bloxk Party,” the clip for “Little While” revolves around a house party, except that now, the stakes and the budget are much higher, causing the venue to change up proportionally. Now, instead of an Airbnb, Sada’s shooting at massive mansions, complete with valets and check-ins, elaborate decorations, and a noticeable increase in the ratio of women to men, including a cameo from fellow emerging Detroit rap star Kash Doll (who should really get a verse on any potential remixes).

“Little While” is Sada’s second major foray into the techno-style drum programming that his hometown pioneered after “Whole Lotta Choppas,” which famously featured a Nicki Minaj verse on its remix.
