Bhad Bhabie and Alabama Barker’s Feud Explained

Bhad Bhabie and Alabama Barker’s back-and-forth is the viral feud that fans can’t stop talking about — and it has included it all: diss tracks, cheating allegations, and even a Kardashian connection. But how did it all start?

First, a little background.

More from Spin:

Bhad Bhabie — real name Danielle Bregoli — shot to fame after her viral Dr. Phil appearance in 2016, during which she coined the phrase, “Catch Me Outside.”

After turning her viral fame into a career in the music industry, thanks to hits like “Hi B****” and “Geek’d,” she started dating Le Vaughn in 2020, and in March 2024, they welcomed a daughter, Kali. The two have had a rocky relationship, breaking up and getting back together multiple times.

Enter Alabama.

In late 2024, the “Gucci Flip Flops” rapper accused the 19-year-old daughter of Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler of trying to “steal” her boyfriend. Alabama denied it, claiming Vaughn, 26, misled her into believing he was single.

“It’s clear that he is manipulating her, feeding her a distorted narrative to justify his behavior,” the teen influencer, whose stepmom is Kourtney Kardashian, wrote in an Instagram Story post on Tuesday, December 17. “His actions reveal a lack of respect and consideration for others, and it’s painful to witness her continuing to support him despite this.”

From there, things escalated fast.

In January 2025, Bhad Bhabie dropped her first diss track, “Over Cooked,” where she didn’t name Alabama directly but made some pointed accusations — appearing to insinuate that Alabama had a fling with Soulja Boy and allegedly got pregnant by Tyga. (The Tyga accusation tied into more Kardashian drama, given that the 35-year-old “Rack City” rapper used to date Alabama’s step-aunt, Kylie Jenner.)

Tyga quickly shut down the speculation. “This the dumbest s*** I ever heard,” he wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “I have never had any sort of physical relationship with Alabama. It’s honestly ridiculous I even have to address it.”

This the dumbest shit I ever heard .
yall believe anything yall see online.

Alabama also denied the claims, responding in an Instagram Story about the lyrics. “To be clear, I’ve never been pregnant, never had an abortion, and have never been alone with Tyga or Soulja Boy,” she wrote at the time.

Weeks later, Alabama fired back with her own diss track, “Cry Bhabie.” She rapped, “I can’t even cap, I didn’t know he was your [baby daddy],” defending herself against accusations of knowingly getting involved with Vaughn.

But Bhad Bhabie wasn’t having it.

On Tuesday, February 25, she released “Ms. Whitman,” a scathing track taking shots at Alabama’s famous family ties and featuring a Travis lookalike in the video. The lyrics included, “Your stepmom burnt out, why she took her sister’s second-hand?” — a dig at Kourtney, 45, referencing past rumors that the Blink-182 drummer (whom she married in May 2022) once had a thing for Kim Kardashian.

Meanwhile, Kanye West — who was married to Kim, 44, from 2014 to 2022 and shares four kids with her — had to clear his name after Bhad Bhabie used his “Carnival” beat in the track. She had shared a screenshot suggesting both the 47-year-old “Gold Digger” rapper and his wife, Bianca Censori, had approved it, but West quickly shut that down. “I just talked to Travis Barker,” he said in an Instagram Story. “I would never be in the middle, I don’t even know what’s going on.”
