“Sometimes I feel so defeated, broken hearts repeated (Oh)/Said ‘I love you’, did you mean it?
/Why don’t I believe it?” DDG asks several times in the songs questioning the relationship.
“Please take note of how both Keke BD and DDG acted once Keke and Halle got some attention on them. Be careful if these insecure jealous men. They are embarrassing!” one fan warned.
“we don’t really need to bring up halle’s personal family issues to rationalize why she’s with DDG still, terrible men will find a way to take advantage of anyone,” one fan explained. “let’s focus on his a–, not the person y’all are allegedly trying to help.”
“I remember a time when we all was routing for DDG and Halle,” one fan remincised.
However, the “hate” from Bailey’s fans has not affected DDG.
“The hate just make me wanna go harder,” he tweeted.
