Controversy has recently been part of Brandon Bills‘s life, the brother of DaniLeigh. However, this time, it’s not related to music or new moves within the industry; instead, he is filing a multimillion-dollar lawsuit against rapper DaBaby. The fight between Brandon Bills and “Rockstar” rapper DaBaby is tuned to reach bills of 4 million dollars over an incident that occurred at a Southern California bowling alley in 2022.
The incident was recorded on video, and it went viral very fast. The video showed DaBaby and Bills getting into a very heated physical confrontation, which is now morphing into a full-blown legal challenge.

The fight supposedly started with a verbal argument between Bills and DaBaby, who shares a child with DaniLeigh. Witnesses describe the scene, and videos have surfaced of how things escalated fast, starting with DaBaby throwing the first punch. A fight ensued, including his entourage, which reportedly joined in while Bills were on the ground. This very chaotic scene now raises lots of questions about what happened and why such violence by the rapper.
According to Bills, the attack was unprovoked and left him with “severe injuries, psychological damage and mounting medical bills.” He says that DaBaby assaulted him for “no reason,” and now he’s looking to secure justice in the court of law to the tune of $2 million for general damages and $2 million for special damages.

The police immediately began investigating the altercation after the event. After all that drama and what appeared to be a rather serious situation, no charges were filed on either side. DaBaby, for his part, said that he had acted in self-defense, while Brandon Bills stood his ground, saying it was an unprovoked attack.
Undeterred, even without criminal charges, Bills decided to take charge by filing a suit against DaBaby and even against the bowling alley where all this had happened. But serving DaBaby the legal papers was not that easy. Reports have it that Bills hired a process server in pursuit of the rapper, but that didn’t even work. DaBaby was nowhere to be found.
Despite the weight of the allegations, the legal battles have been very complex. Police had even charged DaBaby after conducting an investigation but later dropped all charges, largely because Brandon refused to cooperate with authorities. DaBaby has said his actions were in self-defense, complicating the legal battle even further.
The lawsuit, as of August 2024, remains pending, with both parties preparing for what may be a roundabout court process. DaBaby, as of this writing, has yet to make a public statement regarding the lawsuit since its filing, and fans and observers are salivating over more information.
This feels deeply personal for DaniLeigh. As a rising star in the industry, she is no stranger to opening up about her life in her lyrics. DaniLeigh has expressed herself through songs relatable to her fans, many of which speak to true events in her life. This incident adds another layer to her storyline as she threatens the lines and navigates through the complexity of family, love, and conflict in the public eye.
DaBaby has been silent after the lawsuit, only stating in previous comments that he acted in self-defense from the attacker. Suddenly, the accusation puts a new complication in the charged legal matter. DaBaby has not been immune to controversy; last year, he came under fire for homophobic comments made while performing. He has apologized for his words, but the repercussions have hit his career hard.
The case remains in court, with each party preparing for what could be a long legal battle. Brandon Bills appears to want to hold his assailant liable for an attack he claimed was unprovoked, while DaBaby’s people do something to get ready to fight off the allegations.
