<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Lil Yachty took the internet by storm back in 2015, when he was just 18 years old. The young prodigy caught heat not just for his rap, hip-hop, and Avant-Garde, but also for his famous takes on celebrities in the rap industry. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">He did not hold back unpopular opinions before, and he definitely did not hold them back now. </span>This time, he drew parallels between DaBaby and Jay-Z in his podcast, which also included <a href="http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/kanye-west/">Kanye West&#8217;s</a> name.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This time Lil Yachty chose sides, and his claims might have some backing, and his new podcast episode talks about it. </span></p>
<h2><b>Lil Yachty acknowledges his controversial opinion about Kanye West&#8217;s song, is unapologetic about his views</b></h2>
<p>During the anticipation for Kanye West&#8217;s album, he released two distinct versions of his song, &#8216;Jail.&#8217; The first version featured Ye&#8217;s longtime collaborator Jay-Z, who had previously worked with him on their acclaimed joint album, &#8216;Watch The Throne,&#8217; <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/music-news-revisiting-kanye-west-ye-and-jay-z-iconic-album-as-watch-the-throne-becomes-the-most-streamed-collab-on-spotify/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">which recently became the most-streamed collab on Spotify</a>. However, West surprised fans by also releasing a second version of the song, replacing the &#8217;99 Problems&#8217; singer&#8217;s verse with one performed by DaBaby, a prominent younger rapper.</p>
<div class="flex-video widescreen youtube"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Kanye West - Jail (Audio)" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/IviYsgJXG5k?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Yachty talked about Ye&#8217;s song &#8216;Jail&#8217; where the two featured and had rap verses. On his podcast ‘A Safe Place’, the 25-year-old rapper said, “<em>In my personal opinion, I think DaBaby had a better verse.</em>” He acknowledged that directly comparing the two artists without considering the context would be a controversial viewpoint, but he stood to his point. He was sure that the &#8216;Suge&#8217; singer&#8217;s verses were better. </span></p>

<p>His claims definitely put some spotlight on the 31-year-old &#8216;BOP&#8217; singer. His honest review might have just given DaBaby the push he didn&#8217;t know he needed.</p>
<h2><b>Pushing DaBaby into the veteran rappers&#8217; realm </b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While DaBaby is known for his rapid-fire flow, Jay-Z is known for his lyricism and versatility. They both leave distinct styles and approaches to their music. Lil Yachty&#8217;s bold assertion has thrust into the upper echelons of rap royalty, positioning him ahead of the iconic 53-year-old on the Yeezy founder&#8217;s track. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This signifies a shift in the rap landscape. As DaBaby&#8217;s talent and impact are recognized, it propels him to a new height within the genre. Its presence on the track solidifies his place among the elite in the rap industry. By outshining Jay-Z, a veteran and revered figure in hip-hop, he demonstrates his ascent to the realm of the rap elite. The claim by Lil Yachty serves as a testament to DaBaby&#8217;s exceptional artistry and highlights the ever-evolving nature of rap music. </span></p>
