During a sit-down on “Perspektive with Bank,” the rapper addressed the narrative that he fell off, explaining that he needed a moment to step back and reassess. The conversation took a deeper turn as he touched on the hidden pressures of the music business. He claimed that his refusal to follow certain industry scripts and “humiliation rituals” made him a target for those behind the scenes.
“I’m telling you, I could write a book..Most of the n***as, you know, as talented as I am, they can get to where they got number one global records and got these type of fans, all different races and age groups and all that s**t. They be different type of n***as. They don’t be no me. You feel me? Like, they be different type of n***as…I wasn’t ever with the cool kids Club.”
Reflecting on his handling of past controversies, DaBaby admitted that he initially let the industry dictate his reactions, though those days are over. Despite the critics who celebrated his downfall, DaBaby says he isn’t bothered by it. He pointed out that the industry is often full of people who enjoy watching a champion struggle.
Good for you. You’re in my prayers. Keep God first.
