Why all the hate for Da Baby? To me he’s like the Ludacris of the 2010s/2020s, he’s not to be taken seriously as a rapper. But he’ll be a hot singles artist for a minute and can have an impressive resume on pop features. Ludacris had 17 top ten hits on the Hot 100 spanning over 10 years. And his albums were never that big.

He’s a way better rapper than Luda, is taken seriously - just is uptempo and has a personality, unlike a lot of these other guys lol. Granted, I’ve listened to more than just his hits.

Does that mean that dababy will feature on an all time classic like usher’s yeah, and have the rest of his career in the fast and furious franchise?

I take dababy seriously as a rapper

Dababy is already featured on the all time classic known as Oprah’s Bank Account.

Dababy has definitely attracted my attention, but not really for his music. If you know, you know.

[dremolus - solarpunk]

I'm confused the hate DaBaby gets for not switching his flow, as if people like NAV, Gunna, Lil Baby, etc., are rappers with distinct voices.

I doubt anyone who hates on DaBaby for that likes NAV.

OK all jokes aside, here is an article about his flow from a week ago : djbooth.net/features/2020-04-06-dababy-rap-flow-absurdly-detailed-investigation-humor

As for album sales, both of his albums have sold over 1 million units. For a new artist to release his first and second album in the same year and both to move over 1 M is no small feat.

He's on the new Usher single that dropped this week. Check it out on the first page. His verse is pretty okay.

*Pulse popheads proceed to try to figure out the significance of 210 days to DaBaby*

Time to call our fellow Swifties to decipher this Easter Egg 😉

It is quite simple it is an equation of the letters.

(D+a)*[(B*a)+(b*y)] = (4+1)*[(2*1)+(2*20)] = 210

the y isn't from the Latin alphabet, it is from the Greek alphabet.

Although DaBaby was young and made a mistake. Capital 'Y' (upsilon - 20th letter) translates to small 'υ' , Capital 'Γ' (gamma - 3rd letter) translates to small 'γ'. The second one is closer to small 'y' from Latin alphabet. But can you blame him, he only did it to look cool and smart.

Even though DaBaby has finished high school (unlike 80% of hip-hop artists), he only went to school for his parent's sake and did not study. So don't expect him to differentiate upper case from lower case letters from an unknown alphabet to him.

Coming for Toosie Slide's wig.

[dremolus - solarpunk]

Even though I only like one of the songs, I hope The Bones, My Oh My and Savage manage to break into the Top 10. Really don't like seeing a lot of songs peak just outside of the Top 10. Hopefully we won't have a repeat of 2018 where a ton of album bombs prevent songs from making it in (#JusticeForDelicate)

[shaz196]

I hope DaBaby has bigger features on this album than Kirk.

well now seems to be the perfect time for them to all make it, considering (outside of random rumors of a SECOND JB album) there's like nothing coming out at the moment that'll have chart impact

[wavey.]

I don't get why Drake can't make a viral hit(idk just a simple song)[). I can see it as "stepping down", but we all know his caliber when it comes to songs..

[kierz7]

Wasn’t “In My Feelings” a viral hit?

If we’re being really technical then so was “Marvin’s Room” in 2011.

He has before with In My Feelings, Toosie Slide just feels way too forced, kind of like Yummy except significantly better. I don’t like it but it’s definitely not the worst lead single in recent memory, in fact far from it.

[annoymous1]

I want Savage to hit top 10 because female rap will be officially back in business and we haven't had two female rappers in the top 10 since Cardi and Nicki. plus I kinda don't want Dababy to have a top 10 hit oops.

It seems to be on track! A video could boost as well.

[dremolus - solarpunk]

I feel I would like Savage a lot if it had come out in 2017 when a female rapper not named Nicki getting a hit was still a surprise.

She should get some of her girlfriends together and shoot a DIY video at home.

I think it's a good sign that female rappers can be just as mediocre as male rappers nowadays and still get hits.
