DaBaby has unveiled a new single, “Beatbox Freestyle”, and appeared to sparked a bizarre feud that nobody saw coming.
The new track, which dropped on Friday, features a line disparaging teen superstar JoJo Siwa, with DaBaby rapping, “you a b***h, JoJo Siwa (b***h).”
Fans of both artists were confused by the out-of-left-field diss.

“YO WHAT DID I MISS DID JOJO SIWA DUNK ON DABABY AT THE NICKELODEON GAMES OR SOME S—T??? WHY HE OD ON HER LIKE THAT?” tweeted “Desus & Mero” co-host The Kid Mero.

DaBaby later laughed off the rumours of a feud, revealing that it meant nothing.
Tweeting Siwa, he said, “my 3 year old princess is your number 1 fan. I bought her every product you have out. She think she you. Don’t let em trick you into thinking id ever have a problem with you. My word play just went over their heads. Don’t let em trick you into thinking id ever have a problem with you. My word play just went over their heads.”
