DaBaby: Blame It on Baby (2020) (Hip-hop, Trap)

Even though DaBaby has (or had) a somewhat refreshing style of deep-voiced, heavily accented, full-mouthed rapping over tacky trap instrumentals, his style has become even more formulaic and banal than ever before. I think DaBaby has become slightly aware of his monotony, leading him to change it up by singing "some sad shit for the real niggas" in what might be one of worst songs of the year (Sad Sh*t). Beats are minimal, cheap and very routine like his songwriting. Some features provide breaths of fresh air but ultimately a very poor project that stylistically regresses from his previous attempts.
