DDG is back with another visual from his latest album, It’s Not Me, It’s You. In the Diesel Films directed video for “Love Myself,” Kevin Gates joins the 25-year-old rapper as they reflect on the loves of their past. While Gates’ current relationship status is unclear, DDG is dating singer and Little Mermaid star Halle Bailey.
The visual comes less than two months after the rapper/boxer unleashed his sophomore effort. He gave fans a deeper look into the highs and lows of his personal and professional life. On the 12-track project, DDG tackles mature topics such as love, success, and a sprinkle of toxicity throughout the record.
“Love Myself” marks the fourth single from the album. “Storyteller,” “If I Want You,” “Stay In My Circle,” and “Elon Musk” were the first singles released earlier this year. It’s Not me, It’s You features some of hip hop’s most polarizing talents. NLE Choppa, Polo G, and Gunna to name a few. DDG also released his video to his single “If I Want You,” which features his girlfriend Halle Bailey.
During a recent interview with Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club, DDG opened up about his relationship with the singer/actress. “I’ve never been with nobody that’s like really motivated me like she do,” he told the hosts. “I’m seeing different shit.”

[Intro: Kevin Gates]
Luca Brasi
(DMac on the fuckin’ track)
It’s just Kevin, you hear me?
(Tuned up)
[Verse 1: Kevin Gates]
Dealin’ with past traumas, patternistic in nature
Healin’ to break the cycle
Been a big commitment psycho
I’m willin’ to make you my love (My love)
You’ve been indecisive lately, I’m willin’ to make your mind up
Know we all been through things in the past
That make it difficult to even trust
Hate for you to think that I don’t want you around
I be in the streets, I’m in control right now
Hit me when you free and you get flown out of town
Luca Brasi throw that plaga in your soul, pipe down
I never judged you for your past, I just want my turn with you
You know that I’m turnt with you
I’m a big old Muslim, I can have multiple wives
And concubines, monogamy, monotony
Ain’t gon’ work with you, way that I’m livin’, it work different
[Pre-Chorus: DDG]
My love come wit a career attached, I can’t love everybody
It don’t cost you a thing to give me a call and tell me you care about me
I put my ex on and she left me, and now she for everybody
I can’t let nobody finesse me, I gotta watch everybody
[Chorus: DDG]
Yeah, okay, can’t love you ’til I love myself (Yeah)
Don’t hug me, I’ll hug myself
Rolled up blunt, but the smoke don’t help, uh
Yeah, okay, high go down and I miss you again
High go down and I roll up again
Typed up text, I ain’t never gon’ send (I ain’t never gon’ send this shit)
Yeah, okay, too much pride, can’t help myself
I can’t hit it raw, ’cause when I get drunk
I won’t pull out, girl, I know myself, uh (I know myself)
Yeah, okay, high go down and I miss you again
High go down and I roll up again
Typed up text, I ain’t never gon’ send
[Verse 2: DDG]
Couple shots in (Drank, drank)
Reminscin’ on the times, I wish we could do it again
I fucked around and had you blocked, but I’m on the burner again
Lookin’ on your page twice, I even be checkin’ your friends
Started questionin’ myself, like, this shit ain’t never gon’ end
I’m never gon’ bend
Bust the racks up out the wrapper again (Racks)
I just had to put a wrap on the Benz
They can never catch me lackin’ again (No)
When I think of you, I think of revenge
That’s the reason I be fuckin’ your friends
I don’t think that I could love you again (Uh-uh)
You be fuckin’ ’round with too many men
[Chorus: DDG]
Okay
Can’t love you ’til I love myself
Don’t hug me, I’ll hug myself
Rolled up blunt, but the smoke don’t help, uh
Yeah, okay, high go down and I miss you again
High go down and I roll up again
Typed up text, I ain’t never gon’ send (I ain’t never gon’ send this shit)
Yeah, okay, too much pride, can’t help myself
I can’t hit it raw, ’cause when I get drunk
I won’t pull out, girl, I know myself, uh (I know myself)
Yeah, okay, high go down and I miss you again
High go down and I roll up again
Typed up text, I ain’t never gon’ send
[Verse 3: DDG]
I’m in the back of the ‘bach and I’m countin’ up fetti
I’ll shoot you a text when I’m ready (Yeah)
Still on the road, I’m goin’ from show to a show
I’m movin’ from telly to telly (Cash)
I met a girl in Brooklyn, I think I’m a marry her
I got her straight out the deli
All of my industry friends is turnin’ out fake
I fuck around, turn into Melly (Fuck ’em)
No new friends, no (Uh-uh), you are not my homie
AP, two-toned, bust down (Guys), I ain’t got no Rollie’
Fuck the streets, hate the streets, no police (Fuck ’em), they took my brodie
Catfish on the ‘Gram too elite, these hoes on Adobe (Fake)
Photoshop, mix the Henny’ with the Soda Pop
I sit back and observe niggas, I don’t talk much, but I know a lot (Shh)
Told my bitch to curve niggas, she said she do, but I know she not (Bitch)
This rap shit for the birds, nigga, I’ma get a hit and then I’m goin’ pop
