DaBaby was flying high for a while there by dropping popular singles, playing to large crowds, and having major crossover success.
But all of that came to a screeching halt after he made some nasty remarks about the LGBTQIA+ community in 2021 while playing Rolling Loud Miami.
The common perception is DaBaby has been canceled since then, but Fat Joe said he's officially back. The Bronx rhymer also said he loves his hustle mentality.
“As far as I’m concerned, DaBaby uncanceled himself,” said Joe on video. “The guy’s a beast. DaBaby the rapper is unbelievable. I’ve seen him fighting back and he went from being the biggest in the world to getting canceled to fighting. You know, still making money and all that, but I’ve seen him on the grind. Every time I’ve seen him, I’ve said ‘Yo, stay strong. Stay focused, stay this.’ ‘Cause I think DaBaby and them are the new Terror Squad."
He continued. "The man wouldn’t stop working, wouldn’t give up. A lot of people give up. When you got the whole media, everybody going against you, most people are not built for the war. I’m explaining to you guys, DaBaby is ready for war! And he is battle-tested, and he smelled this money."
Do you agree with Joe?
