Definitely never heard big baby like that unless someone was referring to the burger from the spot on Harper. Not gone lie, the my baby thing threw me for a loop first time someone said it to me. I was really perplexed like did he just call me his baby.

Naw Debarge wasn’t using slang, ‘my baby’ is definitely last few years slang

Yeah, but i wonder if maybe that's what it could have stemmed from. Could just be a coincidence, or maybe not.

The only person I’ve ever heard use that is big Greg on 107.5 who says “what’s up my baby” to callers.
