It’s safe to say DaBaby is back in his rap game bag. He never fell off but after a wild 2021 filled with cringe and controversial moments, he’s looking ready to play the bad guy role and make good guys look corny again.

DB lights up his Instagram page to share snapshots of himself on the non-stop grind from Chicago. Looking a little further into the post, his mentor 50 Cent made sure to acknowledge the pics and share some motivational talk.

“That boy working, i see you it’s gonna pay off grind it’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon. 💪🏽” -50 Cent
