‘Y’all gotta stop using my name’: Lil Baby debunks explicit viral video

The controversy began when an explicit video circulated online, depicting two men in a sexual act. The video, described as a “fuzzy recording of a recording,” bore a caption, “Nah lil baby 😭.” While the man in the footage bore some resemblance to Lil Baby, many internet users jumped to conclusions, assuming it was indeed the rapper. As a result, Twitter was ablaze with a multitude of reactions, many of which were rooted in prejudice and homophobic undertones.
