Lil Baby and Moneybagg Yo traded shots on Instagram over the weekend, and it started with a chain. After a club clip of Moneybagg Yo in a white tee and long, iced-out chains circulated on Instagram, commenters said the Memphis rapper was dressing like Lil Baby. Baby left his own comment under the post: "Long chain or don't bang." Bagg answered him directly: "@lilbaby I see why." The phrase is also the title of Bagg's 2026 single, the song he was dancing to in the clip. Bagg then posted a series of Instagram Stories labeled "Picking & Choosing," panning across stacks of cash and a table of chains and pendants. In a voiceover reported by HotNewHipHop, he said people "will see a thousand" others do something but "pick this one person out the thousand to say something to, throw shots at." Neither rapper has called it a beef. The two have a history in the booth, including "U Played" and "No Sucker," and once talked about a joint project. Lil Baby's album FRESH is due Friday, Nov. 6. As of Tuesday morning, Baby had not responded publicly to Bagg's stories. TrapHop USA will update this story if he does.
