AceShowbiz - DDG showered his child with a lavish gift, but it only landed him in hot water. The rapper has been criticized online after showing off a brand new red Ferrari that he purchased for his son Halo's first birthday.
On Sunday, December 22, the YouTuber reunited with his ex Halle Bailey to celebrate their son's birthday. Taking to social media, he revealed that he just bought the lavish car for his son to mark the milestone.
DDG, whose real name is Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr., captioned a video that showed him holding his child while the red Ferrari was rolled out, "Look what I bought Halo for his 1st birthday!!!!!" The father looked more excited than his son as the crowd cheered at the sight of the fancy ride.
"Halo went rari on his 1 st gday," DDG wrote over another clip that showed him making his son stand on the hood of the car. In another video, the 27-year-old sat behind the wheel as his son sat on his lap. "Halo let me sit in the front seat," he captioned the footage.
DDG also let Halo get the feel of the Ferrari by touching the steering wheel. "The youngest on the road!!!" he bragged about his son.
While DDG looked proud to present the lavish gift to his son, not everyone can fathom his intention with the car. "so you basically bought yourself a new car on the baby bday," someone mocked him. Another similarly accused him, "He makes everything about him... and I don't like the way he yanked Halo back when he clearly wanted to go to his mom."
"LMFAO I was truly expecting a toy Ferrari to come around the corner," a baffled user commented. A fourth person weighed in, "I can understand a toy Ferrari or something he can actually ride in but come on man."
A confused person wrote, "Was expecting the lil baby one but ok," while another harshly reacted, "This bout the goofiest s**t I've seen all year." Someone else echoed the sentiment as saying, "This is dumbest s**t I ever seen."
