Multi-platinum rapper DaBaby has revealed his upcoming album Be More Grateful, due out on January 16. He accompanied the news with a new single and video, “Don’t Insult Me,” featuring his daughter Twin. The release marks a personal and reflective turn in his music.
DaBaby, a multi-platinum global superstar, announced his new album Be More Grateful on January 6, with a release scheduled for January 16. The announcement came alongside the debut of his single “Don’t Insult Me,” which features his daughter Twin and represents one of the most personal moments in his career.
The track blends urgency and vulnerability, focusing on themes of pride, protection, and perspective. Directed by Nick Mays, the accompanying music video begins with paparazzi and reporters aggressively surrounding DaBaby as he walks with Twin. The scene escalates until Twin intervenes, using what appears as superpowers to wave off a reporter, altering the tone. The visuals then shift to DaBaby delivering verses on identity, resilience, and staying grounded, with Twin remaining by his side.
“Don’t Insult Me” lays the emotional groundwork for Be More Grateful, building on themes from his recent work. Fans pre-ordering the album gain instant access to tracks including “Don’t Insult Me,” “PBJT,” “LETTER TO MY YN,” “PAPER LOW,” and “OUT YA BUSINESS.”
This follows a consistent creative output from DaBaby. “LETTER TO MY YN” emphasizes motivating the younger generation, while the black-and-white video for “OUT YA BUSINESS,” released on his birthday, highlights focus and accountability.
Outside music, DaBaby continues community efforts. In 2024, he started DaBaby Cares to honor his late brother Glenn Johnson, promoting mental health awareness and offering resources to young people through school-based programs.
