There is no denying that Da Baby is in contention for breakout star of the year in 2019.
He’s got everything that you need to be a superstar.
From hit singles like “Suge” and “Goin Baby” to hilarious music videos that showcase
one of the funniest personalities in the game.
So yeah, you can try and fight his rise him to mainstream fame, but… when it comes to
fighting you probably want to stay as far from the guy as possible:
Yeah, that was Baby beating a man up for trolling him in the Louis Vitton store.
I mean, he even needed hand surgery because of how badly he beat the guy up…
Legendary
And DaBaby doesn’t just go into the store to pick fights, he’s there to spend some
bands also.
He’s got a Louis backpack, fanny pack, scarf, luggage… basically anything you can buy
at that store, Baby has it.
You can spot that Louis V luggage when he’s hopping onto the private jets that he uses
to fly from show to show.
There are also a few other things about Baby that are hard to miss, like the ice on his
smile that’s almost always showing because he seems like a generally happy guy.
The ice on his fingers, wrist and neck, including the incredible chain he has of Stewie Griffin
in honor of the fellow baby.
He also recently showed off an inside look at what he calls the Billion Dollar Baby headquarters:
And while he may be missing on the court, he’s not missing when it comes to the chart.
Plus, I can’t forget to mention the J.Cole feature that he has in the stash somewhere
waiting for the perfect time to release it.
And knowing how Cole has been treating his features lately, we can bet that will be an
instant smash.
Online sources list Da Baby’s net worth as 750k as of 2018, but that was before he
signed a deal and got on.
In 2019, Baby signed with Interscope records for an undisclosed amount but based on his
success, I would be surprised if he they haven’t already recouped on their advance money leaving
baby with a networth somewhere in the millions.
I mean he did say himself he’s the type to let people think that he’s broke until
he pops out with a million.
So,
What’s going on good people in the comment section?
My name is Jeremy Hecht, I hope you’re having one Hecht of a day, and welcome to another
episode of The Rich Life, today, I’ll be your host taking you through how DaBaby makes
and spends his money.
If you’re new here and wondering who the Hecht I am, I’m the LA host for the channel
brining you weekly content, I recently did a Before They Were Famous video on DaBaby
and we’ve covered other people for this series like Wiz Khalifa, NBA Youngboy and
even Nav Bhatia, Raptors Superfan so be sure to check those out and let us know who to
cover next in the comments down below and send this video to the biggest DaBaby fan
you know.
Before we start, I’ve got a trivia question for you that I’ll answer at the end of the
video:
“Now that Da Baby has all of these riches, what is his favorite meal?”
And no… the answer, isn’t that, what you’re thinking, although maybe it’s number 2.
Alright, let’s get into it!
Yeah, Yeah.
In order to give you a better sense of Baby’s come up, I’m gonna roll a short clip from
his Before They Were Famous video that I did just over a month ago:
Be sure to check out that whole video for the whole story and get it to 500k views,
we’re almost there...
But Baby’s rise to fame was far from an overnight success.
He has actually been grinding for years, going on small tours, dropping mixtapes and using
innovative self-promotion tactics like printing giant pictures of his head for his team to
carry around and even dressing up as a Baby at South By South West.
But it was the combination of his music and his personality, which shines through in all
of his music videos that gained the rapper formerly known as Baby Jesus a sizeable fanbase.
And it wasn’t actually until early 2019, that Baby officially inked a deal with Interscope
records, which in his words, put him on.
Exact numbers about the deal aren’t available online but it seems like he’s outdone any
projections the label could have forseen and I have a feeling he’s already made a sizeable
sum from his music.
That brings us into how he’s making his money.
Well, much of his income is most likely coming from his streaming numbers.
According to Billbaord, Baby’s song “Suge” earned nearly 100 thousand dollars in one
week.
And while we can’t confirm how much of that profit the label is taking, even if he only
received 25 percent of that, not a bad week at the office.
The song even reached the number one spot on Apple Music, beating out the ever-winning
Old Town Road for a short time.
Plus, because of the pure comedy of the videos, his streaming numbers on YouTube continued
to go up.
With “Suge” at 75 million, “Next Song” at 20 million and “Walker Texas Ranger”
at 17 mill.
That’s at the time of this recording.
Baby went from doing small club shows to packing out venues around the country with sold out
concerts.
He sold out the Fillmore in Charlotte which has a capacity of 2000 people.
And of course he makes money from his absolutely hilarious merch line, profiting off of his
latest KO at the Louis store.
And he made back enough to cover whatever he bought at the store that day because the
hoodies are already sold out and the t-shirts will run you 35 bucks.
Baby continues to profit off of that fight as he recently parodied the knockout in his
own music video for the song “Carpet Burn:”
Alright so now let’s get to the fun part!
What does the man spend his money on?
Well, more than anything, as flashy as he is, he invests a lot back into his craft.
Early on in his career, he dropped a few racks on a verse from Boosie Badazz so that he could
elevate his stature in the rap game.
So to all of you artists who are too proud to pay for a feature, just know, even some
of your favorites did it.
But, another thing to keep in mind, is that the song has to actually be good.
You can’t just pay Gucci 20k to get on your record and expect it to blow up, even if it’s
trash.
Baby also has his own record label called “Billion Dollar Baby Entertainment” of
which he is the CEO…
Suge.
He’s got artists on there from the likes of Stunna 4 Vegas, and apparently even Johnny
Dang:
Well, not actually, but Dang has provided Baby with quite the jewelry collection.
I’m not exactly sure which pieces he got from Dang and which he bought elsewhere, but
let’s take a look at everything he’s got.
First and foremost, he takes care of his team, buying matching Billion Dollar Baby Entertainment
chains for the crew!
On top of that, he’s got a Kirk chain to rep his government name, he’s got Cuban
links, and who can forget the massive Stewie Griffin piece.
Plus, his rings, bracelets, grills and watch, Baby is iced out head to toe.
And he doesn’t just go into the Louis store to fight and practice his uppercuts, he actually
spends his money in the store as well:
He’s got this Louis Vitton bandana which costs around 500 bucks:
Louis Vuitton Luggage which will run you anywhere between 15 hundred and 2 thousand dollars
depending on the model.
A Louis backpack which goes for 18 hundred bucks
And a louis sling bag, which I just like to call a fanny pack which will hit you for 1,400
online.
Baby did say she liked how he was dressed but he isn’t a salad so…
He’s also got a red Lacoste tracksuit which will LaCoste him a little bit of money
- I had a teacher in high school, Mr. Rafaeli,
who wore a Lacoste polo every single day to class, and every single day, no exaggeration,
I would raise my hand mid-lesson and ask: “Hey, did that shirt Lacoste you a lot?”
Needless to say, I got kicked out a few times, but I still got a 90 in the class.
So shoutout to Mr. Rafaeli if you’re somehow a DaBaby fan and watching this.
In terms of cars, I’m not exactly sure what he’s driving, but hopefully he isn’t doing,
uh, this while cruising around town:
Hey, he has always been a HEAD of the game…
But Baby has been spotted flying on an N500XP private jet, which can cost anywhere between
13 hundred and 13 thousand dollars per hour.
Hey, I mean we can’t all be on Aubrey’s level and have private Jets given to us for
free!
It seems like Baby could also be geering up for a big golfing trip soon:
But more than anything, he is generous with his money, throwing absolutely massive bags
of weed into the crowd at Rolling Loud.
I don’t even know what else to say about this, but anyone in the crowd was who caught
that was probably set for long a long time.
But even with all of the cash he’s pulling in, he isn’t afraid to still eat some Ramen
noodles from the Gas station.
Now, I don’t know if that’s actually his favorite meal, but when a fan stopped him
to take a video in a gas station, Baby was quick to point out that he isn’t too good
for the classic snack.
And there you have the answer to your question from the beginning of the video!
But that’s it for this one.
I’m Jeremy Hecht, this was a fun one.
Let me know who to cover next in the comments down below and as always I hope you have one
Hecht of a day.
I’ll see you in the next video!
