Big Sean recently took to X to clear things up.

Earlier this week, Big Sean dropped off a new music video for his track "Yes," sparking big reactions from some Baby Keem fans. The Detroit performer was immediately accused of copying Keem's style, causing both of them to trend on X. “We really live in a world where baby keem has 40 year old sons,” one critic wrote. “Kendrick and Baby Keem bout to send Big Sean a cease and desist,” another claimed.

Luckily, plenty of fans rushed to Big Sean's defense, pointing out that he'd been rapping that way long before Baby Keem. Now, it appears as though he's taken to X to address the debacle for himself. "Must not be familiar wit my game," he Tweeted last night. Clearly, Big Sean stands by his work and isn't afraid to defend it if necessary.
