Rapper DDG incited outrage when he downplayed the restraining order that his ex-girlfriend Halle Bailey filed against him for allegedly abusing her.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Bailey filed for the restraining order, claiming DDG was physically, emotionally, and verbally abusive to her throughout their two-year relationship, which ended in October 2024.

Bailey, one-half of the R&B singing group Chloe x Halle, said in the legal documents that an altercation emanated from an argument about visitation arrangements for their son, Halo, in January 2025. She claims she suffered a chipped tooth and bruises.
DDG enraged fans when he indicated that he was unconcerned and unbothered by these chain of events when he spoke to his nearly 7 million Instagram followers.
DDG indicated he is unbothered
“I’m chillin btw… I have no worries. streaming later on, no days off!” he said, also posting the message on his X account.
DDG, whose initials stand for Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr., has yet to speak on the veracity of Bailey’s claims. He is required to stay 100 feet away from Bailey. But DDG’s mother took to Instagram to deny the alleged abuse.
“I don’t usually comment or say anything on this internet, even with all the negativity, the lies, and hatred towards mine,” said Tonya Granberry.
Halle Bailey fans go off on DDG
Fans of the Little Mermaid actress and singer were irate that DDG would have the audacity to go on social media to minimize the gravity of alleged domestic abuse.
“When men say they’re chilling they actually losing their s–t!! You most definitely hit the lil mermaid,” a Bailey fan wrote under his post. A second person said this would be a “good time to regroup and stay off the internet.”
One fan wanted to know just what did DDG do to Bailey. “They’re cooking you on every blog bro.. what really happened?!” while a fourth declared to DDG: “YOU SUCH A BUM.”
A fifth commenter beseeched DDG to seek professional counseling to reconcile his anger issues, while a sixth hopes that karma comes back to hit him hard. “And I hope you’re stupid enough to mention her and that baby so they can sue and lock your yuck mouth a– tf up b—h,” another X user wrote.

“I agree with you, but you need to worry about how you gonna pay that woman them millions.. let’s not act like your hands ain’t dirty,” a third fan wrote.
