DaBaby Returns with New Single ‘Masterpiece’

DaBaby is back with another bop.

After releasing three projects in 2020, the prolific rapper drops his first music of the new year. On “Masterpiece,” produced by D.A Got That Dope, DaniLeigh’s boyfriend reflects on the November 2018 incident at a Walmart in Huntersville, North Carolina, where 19-year-old Jalyn Craig was fatally shot. DaBaby was convicted of carrying a concealed gun, but he was not charged with killing the man.

“They just told me that somebody died / But it don’t bother me, that’s a G thing / No, it don’t bother me, it’s the G way,” he raps. “I don’t know what went down at the Walmart / I don’t know what happened on that freeway.”

Last week, DaBaby was arrested for carrying a loaded firearm after cops allegedly discovered a gun in his vehicle while he was shopping on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills.

Expect much more from DaBaby before his retirement in five years. Earlier this month, he and Lil Wayne were in the studio working on new music. He and Megan Thee Stallion also recently shot a video for their collaboration “Cry Baby.”
