DaBaby ‘dissing’ JoJo Siwa on his freestyle ‘for no reason’ might be one of the strangest feuds yet
DaBaby has confused everyone by seemingly dissing YouTube’s sweetheart JoJo Siwa on his new freestyle and we just want to wrap her up in cotton wool.
The Rockstar rapper dropped his new track Beatbox over the weekend and one line in particular has become a trending topic on social media.
Towards the end of the freestyle, DaBaby raps: ‘Turn me up, n***** gon’ see why, n**** you a b***h, JoJo Siwa (b***h).’
Jojo’s fans have taken it to be an unprovoked dig at the 17-year-old influencer while others are completely baffled and wondering exactly when DaBaby, 29, had beef with her.
Defending the YouTuber, one fan tweeted: ‘Why did DaBaby include that Jojo Siwa line in his freestyle? Regardless of rhyme a 29 year old dissing a 17 year old doesn’t sit right with me.’
‘DaBaby dissin JoJo Siwa for absolutely no reason this one of the craziest crossover episodes we’ve seen so far,’ one amused Twitter user reacted.
Another weighed in: ‘I need a backstory on why DaBaby called Jojo Siwa a b***h.’
One questioned: ‘Dababy is a grown ass man calling jojo siwa a bitch and for what, to rhyme?’
According to Genius, the song lyrics bible, DaBaby’s line was simply a rhyming technique.
‘Here, “Siwa” functions as a homophone with “see why”,’ the database explained.
Still, DaBaby might want to offer an explanation in the next 24 hours or continue risking the wrath of JoJo’s fans.
Coincidentally, both stars have been hitting headlines for their dating lives in recent weeks.
DaBaby, real name Jonthan Kirk, split from singer DaniLeigh after around a year of dating. The couple had just confirmed their relationship in December and haven’t shared a reason for the break-up.
On the other hand, JoJo couldn’t be more loved-up at the moment after going public with her girlfriend Kylie.
Just weeks before, JoJo had come out as LGBTQ+.
