DaBaby's Lil Wayne-assisted 'Lonely' video contains a message about mental health awareness, a tribute to his brother, Glen, who died in 2020.

Lonely , featuring Lil Wayne. Directed by DaBaby himself, the wacky video finds the North Carolina rapper getting his Joker on, complete with a white, green and red outfit and makeup. After going on a mass shooting spree, DaBaby lands himself in a psychiatric ward, where he continues to wreak havoc.
