DaBaby Says He Won’t Do No Battle Rap “That’s Gonna Distract You”
DaBaby Says He Won’t Be Exchanging Diss Tracks Not To Get Distracted
DaBaby and Megan Thee Stallion are arguably the hottest artists of 2019. According to some Hip Hop pundits, DaBaby is the best new generation rapper out there.
But it appears that the rapper is not ready to prove himself by taking on other rappers in a rap battle so as not to get distracted from the art.
During a recent interview, DaBaby discredit new school rappers claiming to be the best rapper on social media unlike the previous generations who make their claims on songs, albums and features.
“All that they had then was the music to back up what they were saying,” DaBaby said. “When [Lil] Wayne said he was the best rapper alive, he didn’t say that sh*t on Instagram. He said that sh*t on his album. Immediately after saying it, it was at the beginning of his song, he gave you music to back it,” he continued.

“He gave you an entire song and repeated itself in the hook that he’s the best rapper alive. And then, he gave you a complete body of work, a legendary body of work right after it.”
He added that when you declare to be the best, you become a target and other rappers are interested in battling you and start calling you out on songs. “Then you’re gonna change the whole narrative of everything you got goin’ on. Now all people are gonna be worried about is you versus this person instead of you just becoming better and just thriving to be the best you are.”
“I don’t gotta say I’m better than you or tell you the difference between me and you,” he said. “I don’t gotta do that in order to display who I am or how great I think I am.” He added that when it comes to people tossing negative comments or bars his way, he’s not worried about it. “I’ve been gettin’ rocks thrown at me the whole time.”
“You ain’t gon’ see me doin’ no battle rap,” he said. “You just don’t get thrown into a rock throwing competition. At the end of he day, that’s gonna distract you from the art. That’s gonna distract you from the money, too,” he clarified.
“You can’t talk about my mama and be in the same room as me. We ain’t playin’ like that. I can’t even play like that, so I ain’t even gon’ sit here and act like I’m cool with that.” Watch the interview below :
