Another added, “I feel so bad you were looking so good now you seem really off and I’m worried.”
Bhabie gave birth to her first baby, daughter Kali Love, eight months earlier in March.
“The name doesn’t really have any specific meaning, it’s just his mom picked the middle name and then I had a list of five names I liked, and Kali was one of them,” Bhabie, who shares her daughter with Le Vaughn, told People at the time. “I thought that Love went good with Kali.”

The next year, Bhabie launched a rap career and became the youngest artist to have three singles debut on the Billboard H๏τ 100 chart.
“I’ve always loved music. When I first started, I didn’t really have the confidence and didn’t think I could actually do it,” Bhabie told Basic Magazine in an October 2023 profile. “I was working with a lot of cowriters, but now, I do most of the writing by myself. I’ve definitely evolved. I’ve always loved music and rapping, so making it a profession came naturally to me.”
She added, “I feel like a lot of my older music was kind of childish, but I was young —14 and 15 years old. I’m 18 years old now and I’m definitely going to show that I’m more mature when it comes to both my content and its delivery. … I’ve made a lot of my own music before, but it was mostly about what the label wanted. When you’re signed, they’re just thinking of hits and marketing, especially because I was so young. I didn’t have a lot of choices or a strong voice. But I’m older now. I understand the game now.”
