Music Video Debut

Halle Bailey and rapper DDG's newborn son, Halo, made his music video debut hours before the couple announced his birth. In the music video for 'Darryl Freestyle,' which was released Saturday, a short clip shows DDG cradling the little one in a white blanket before the video flashes to another scene.

The 'I'm Geekin' rapper — born Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr. — also seemingly gave a shoutout to Bailey and their new addition in the lyrics. 'Silver Spoon kid / I know Halo don't want for nothing,' he raps. 'He crying / His mama coming / She's stronger than Wonder Woman.'

While the cover art for the SoundCloud track features an image of a baby's face, it's unclear whether the photo is of the pair's son.

Announcement of the Birth

Halle Bailey and rapper DDG announced the arrival of their first child, a baby boy named Halo, on Saturday evening. Bailey shared a photo of the baby boy's hand, showcasing a little gold bracelet on his wrist with the inscription 'Halo.' DDG also posted the news on his own account, expressing his love and excitement for his son.

Despite months of speculation, Bailey and DDG never confirmed that they were expecting. The pregnancy rumors first started swirling in September 2023 when Bailey attended the MTV VMAs in a flowing orange dress, which hid her stomach.

Bailey's fit for the event was one of many stomach-concealing outfits she would wear to events in subsequent months.

Relationship Background

Halle Bailey and DDG went Instagram-official in March 2022 and made their red carpet debut three months later. Reflecting on how they met, Bailey shared in an interview that she was 'inspired' by DDG, who was one of the young black creators she watched on YouTube during her upbringing. They began messaging each other, and the rest is history.

The couple has kept their relationship relatively private, and the birth of their son came as a surprise to many. However, Bailey expressed her excitement and love for her son in her Instagram announcement, welcoming him to the world and teasing that the world is eager to know him.
