DaBaby Addresses Criticism About His Flow And Similarities In His Music

DaBaby’s latest album, Blame It On Baby, sees the rapper trying out different flows than his usual.

Before his latest album release, social media pointed out similarities between the Da Baby’s songs. But now, it appears the North Carolina rapper has a direct response to the criticism.

During an interview with The Breakfast Club, DaBaby opened up about the criticism, noting his confidence in his ability to rap.

” As far as switching the flow, I have no problem rapping circles around any one of these niggas,” he said, as he revealed a new route for Da Baby will come when its time. “I couldn’t find myself entertaining that. I could joke about it just like I joke about everything else. … I’ll make a conscious album right now, I’ll record the whole shit today. On some J. Cole vibes. Joyner Lucas. I can get in there too. At the end of the day, I understand what’s going on. You gotta milk the game. You gotta take advantage of it. If I switch it too quick, you ain’t gon’ like it. You gon’ be like ‘Damn Baby, I wanted you to turn me up.’ When you got something going, you would be a fool to step on your own toes and go left with it.”

In a separate interview with Complex, DJ and producer K.i.D discussed the process that went into making Blame It On Baby, as he also dismissed critics using the “same flow” analogy.

” I was on social media, and some people would say, ‘Baby got the same type of flow,'” K.i.D said. “In the camp, we all know Baby don’t have the same type of flow. He was rapping the type of music we made on ‘Sad Shit,’ the melodic type of vibe, back before I even knew him. So it was like, yeah, I’m fixing to unleash and show y’all the type of music that I know I can make, that y’all ain’t even heard yet. He pretty much had to dumb down his music so the world could catch on.”
