DDG has been acting differently since he bagged India Love.
Rapper and YouTube star DDG returns with a gritty new single titled “That’s My Ball”—a trap-heavy banger that blends menacing production with cold confidence. Known for his sharp flows and flashy persona, DDG leans all the way into his villain arc here, matching the track’s dark, bass-heavy instrumental with equally aggressive bars.
The production is booming and hostile, laced with eerie melodies and heavy 808s that give it that ominous, late-night trap energy. DDG keeps up with the beat effortlessly, unleashing machine-gun verses full of bravado, only to switch things up on the chorus with a catchy, more minimalistic flow that’s easier to rap along with.
Lyrically, DDG’s in full flex mode, comparing a baddie he’s with to a basketball—his “ball”—and tossing out a flurry of basketball metaphors and street-savvy punchlines. Along the way, he brags about wealth, power, and being untouchable, making clear that he’s living life on his terms and isn’t afraid to say so.
While “That’s My Ball” delivers on energy and has moments of hook-worthy appeal, it may come off as a bit formulaic or predictable for those seeking more depth. Still, for fans of hard-hitting trap and villainous flex anthems, this is DDG in his rawest, most confident form.
