DDG already had a music background as a child thanks to his father being an engineer for local artists and his brothers being singers. It was 2015 when he began taking music more seriously by releasing diss songs on YouTube for fun, including a diss aimed at Lil Yachty called “Big Boat,” which caught a slight buzz on social media. He would get views in the millions for his rap-related videos and soon found himself collaborating with Famous Dex, Zaytoven, G Herbo, Black Youngsta, Queen Naija and more. It was the RIAA certified-Platinum single “Moonwalking in Calabasas,” featuring Blueface, that catapulted DDG into major recognition as an artist. DDG is a 2021 HipHopDX Rising Star.
