A group of women stopped DDG and were amazed they were meeting Lil Baby.

He was flexing with his Little Mermaid girlfriend for Milan Fashion Week, but not everyone was familiar with DDG. The rapper is enjoying the lull away from viral mania after trending due to his interactions with ex-girlfriend Rubi Rose. It unraveled in real-time on social media, even prompting DDG's current leading lady, Halle Bailey, to step in with a tweet to keep the peace. That didn't do much good, however, because DDG insisted on getting the last word against Rose. So, he wrote and released a song about her.

As people took to the internet to troll DDG, he and Bailey were posing on the streets of Italy. A group of women stopped to take photos of the rapper and kept saying the word "baby" while attempting to communicate in another language. The barrier was evident as DDG and Halle tried to understand what was being said. Then, they realized one of the women was asking if the rapper was Lil Baby.

The interaction was only a tad awkward, but Halle got a kick out of seeing the exchange. When the woman asked if DDG was Lil Baby, he simply replied, "Yup." The group went on their way, amazed that they saw the My Turn star, except they didn't. No word on if they know they've gone viral. Despite being called the wrong person, DDG seems happy to escape the social media storm he helped create within the last few weeks.

If you missed it, Rubi Rose ignited a war of words after suggesting that DDG gave Halle her old clothes. He fiercely denied the allegations, and the pair seemed to indirectly beef for a brief time. Then, Rubi shared screenshots of alleged DMs between her and her ex, but he responded quickly.

Unsurprisingly, DDG was trolled over his latest single, "Way Too Petty." It directly answered Rubi Rose's antics, and he berated her on the track. The public suggested DDG wasn't over the romance, but he retorted that he has no feelings for Rose.
