DaBaby said he can rap as well as Eminem, J. Cole, and Kendrick Lamar. DaBaby made the claim during a recent interview where he said that, “If I don’t feel like you know nothing about this shit, I’m not about to try and exploit my real life anyways, I’m just doing me, So when it come to like pain or anything that affects me or effects somebody I love I couldn’t dealt running round god damn exploiting that shit. I can’t do it.”
He continued saying that, “Ok you can put this beat on and I’ll go Eminem level on that bitch, you gotta get one of them to come fuck with me. You gotta go get Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, I don’t wanna disrespect nobody but boy, raise your hand, I’m like that. N-ggas know too and I’m like that for real I don’t gotta talk about nobody else story. I’ll talk about me.”
This isn’t the first time that the rapper has made a claim of this caliber, just before running through an L.A. Leakers freestyle in February he said, “Don’t get it f-ckin’ twisted, I like to turn people up, I like to make people feel good, but at the same time, you gotta get Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole for me, n-gga. Nas, JAY-Z. You gotta go get them ones.”
In yet another freestyle he gave for Funk Flex in October Baby rapped about, “Try to turn me into a popstar forgetting that Imma pop off on any n-gga/ Try me, I’m gonna make it hotter than hot sauce on Billboard with them young n-ggas still sitting outside my opp house, I’m the only one with the most to lose but the first one to let the shots off.”
DJ Akademiks suggested he was being “blackballed” by the music industry, something that Meek Mill and Boosie Badazz agreed with.
