"Ghetto Love Story" is a song by American rapper BabyChiefDoit from his second studio album Rise Against My Broken Odds (2026). It was produced by Charley Cooks.

Composition

"Ghetto Love Story" is a Miami bass-inflected song,[1] featuring a beat reminiscent of the album So So Def Bass All-Stars. Lyrically, BabyChiefDoit raps about his lover and the challenges in her life, such as the influence of her friends, her frequent drinking, past heartbreaks and meddling boyfriend. He voices his determination to go out on a date and dance with her.[2]

BabyChiefDoit first teased the song on TikTok on June 9, 2026, with a clip that was shot at a roller-skating rink and featured the first verse and chorus. The line "Baby, I just wanna dance" particularly gained popularity and became the subject of most videos using the song.[1]
