Deion Sanders Jr.'s alleged stolen rap beats has social media buzzing
The Buffaloes may be in their offseason grind, but a new controversy involving the Sanders family is heating up — and this time, it's not on the field.
Deion Sanders Jr., the eldest son of Colorado head coach Deion 'Coach Prime' Sanders, is facing public backlash after being accused of stealing a beat from up-and-coming rapper DatBoy. The drama unfolded on X (formerly Twitter), where the artist posted side-by-side clips comparing his original track to Sanders Jr.'s recently released song, Dolly, which debuted in March and has since collected just over 13,000 views.
'Deion Sanders' son stole my sound as well,' DatBoy wrote on the platform. 'I tagged the whole family, and a few months later, he dropped a song with the same melody and beat.'
The comparison gained momentum fast, with fans chiming in across social media. DatBoy's tweet included audio evidence intended to prove that Dolly mirrors the rhythm, structure, and vibe of his earlier track — sparking a wave of discussion around artistic integrity and platform privilege.
To date, Sanders Jr. has not commented publicly. That silence is only fueling speculation, especially among Colorado fans who have followed the family's every move since Coach Prime's high-profile arrival in Boulder. While Shedeur continues to do his best to win the starting job in Cleveland, and Shilo eyes a potential spot on Tamps Bays defense, Deion Jr. has charted his own course in the entertainment world through music and media brand Well Off.
But the shadow of the Sanders name cuts both ways. For Deion Jr., whose football career peaked at SMU, scrutiny is inevitable — and when allegations like this surface, they hit harder.
There's currently no legal action or formal response from either side, but in the era of viral accountability, the court of public opinion may already be in session.
If Deion Jr. wants his music to stand apart from his father's fame and his brothers' football success, now would be the time to step up — or speak up.
