Daylyt has released a new single, "Backpack," and fans on social media think he took several subliminal shots at Joey Badass on the track. He dropped the song on Monday with a music video showing him hitting several tricks on his skateboard.
"It's too early to end you, I'm still tryna befriend you," he raps at one point. The music video occasionally plays brief clips from what appears to be his previous response to Joey, "Hiyu." He further raps: "1999, when I was 19, I probably shot 'bout 90 9s."
In the comments section of the video, one user wrote: "This was so good. regardless of the skating. The Joey Badass subliminals were very tastefully done too. Damn." Others celebrated the music video itself. "Visuals matter. TDE always amplifies the music with great visuals. It's a given Daylyt is gonna shine," one fan wrote. Another added: "This production is NUTS!!! Reminds me of 2010s Odd Future and the bars are light-years ahead of just about anything else of course. Daylyt is making the best music of any professional battle emcee imo."
Joey Badass originally kicked off the competition with the release of his single, "The Ruler's Back," earlier this year. On the song, he targeted the West Coast as a whole. "Too much West Coast d*ck lickin' / I'm hearin' n****s throwin' rocks, really ain't sh*t stickin' / 'Cause if we talkin' bar for bar, really it's slim pickings," he rapped, seemingly referencing the success of Kendrick Lamar in 2024. Lamar had not only taken on Drake in their iconic feud but also released the album, GNX, to universal acclaim.
Being from California, Daylyt fired back in defense of his coast on the aforementioned song, "Hiyu." "You boys had years to show you the best, clear / Now it's people in your class that they consider your peers," he rapped. He also noted that he has a Capital STEEZ tattoo on his arm.
Suki Waterhouse has spoken candidly about how she found herself crying constantly after the birth of her daughter.
The singer and actress reflected on her experience as a mother more than two years after she and her partner, actor Robert Pattinson, welcomed their baby girl in March 2024.
During an interview with The Standard published on Thursday, Suki explained that motherhood has completely shifted her outlook on life.
"I think it's made me marvel at our humanness. It's so funny, even just your kid getting a fever, watching a little body recover from that, it's brought me down to what it is to be alive and I really love that," she said. "It feels very survivalist and medieval in a way, especially birth, birth is medieval."
The Daisy Jones & The Six actress, 34, shared that she was caught off guard by just how exposed and emotional she felt after giving birth to her daughter.
"I'm almost two and a half years in now, but when she was first born, I remember thinking that I can't believe everybody does this and I can't believe how vulnerable I feel," she told the publication. "I was crying all the time."
Suki continued, "It makes me cry now thinking about it. It was just... shocking."
The Notting Hill singer also admitted that she has never considered herself someone who cries easily, making those emotions all the more surprising.
"It's so f**king weird! I'm not a cryer! I'm so not an emotional person, I'm such a Capricorn. But being a mum just fed me up in such a sweet way," she stated. "It just absolutely broke open my heart, and I'm just madly in love and, despite my crying right now, I enjoy it so much and I'm so taken by my daughter and so in love with doing it with my partner and I just feel the preciousness of it very much."
Suki and Twilight actor Robert, 40, have been in a relationship since 2018 and announced they were expecting their first child together toward the end of 2023.
The pair have largely kept their romance away from the spotlight and have yet to publicly share the name of their daughter.
