DDG just dropped his latest single, “Famous,” and has set the internet on fire for dissing his own girlfriend—Halle Bailey. The song’s lyrics mention he’s in love with a “famous b#tch,” seemingly taking aim at Bailey.
Bailey isn’t just signed to Beyoncé’s label, Parkwood Entertainment, she’s also the star of the Disney movie “The Little Mermaid” and upcoming remake of “The Color Purple.”
“Fall in love, I hate that s##t/Knockin’ me off my grind, I can’t f##k with relationships,” he says. “I ain’t even got enough time in a day for me to chase a b##ch/I don’t even ask for much, I ask you to do the basic s##t/Hardest thing I did was fall in love with a famous b##h.”
He also references how Bailey kissed her co-star Jonah Hauer-King from “The Little Mermaid,” rapping, “Filmin’ a movie now you kissing dudes/You know I love you a lot/I don’t give a f##k if that s#t for promo/I don’t wanna see this s##t no more.”
He later addressed his “girl” and Hauer-King holding hands during the U.K. premiere of “The Little Mermaid,” rapping, “Why is y’all holdin’ hands in the photo?/You know I’m insecure, that’s a no-no.”
Many took to social media to put him on blast.
“DDG must have gotten jealous over all the attention Keke’s foster son was getting last week and said it was his turn,” one person tweeted.

Another added, “I’ve said it before, but something about Halle & DDG relationship reminds me of Whitney and Bobby. Obviously not the abuse/drugs, but the way every time Whitney had a moment in her career when she was thriving, Bobby would always end up in trouble, or act up so the attention.”
