Jonathan Lyndale Kirk, better known as DaBaby, delivered a Grammys performance of his hit song, “Rockstar” that got social media buzzing, not just for his musical skills, but for six backup dancers that appeared to be dressed like judges or perhaps Supreme Court justices.

DaBaby performed his highest-charting song with Roddy Rich, Anthony Hamilton, violins, and a six-pack of judicially-robed backup dancers.

The lyrics to “Rockstar” have multiple references to the police (“Let’s go / Brand new Lamborghini, f*** a cop car / With the pistol on my hip like I’m a cop”), but no overtly judicial themes, leaving Twitter users to come up with their own reasons for the somberly-robed dancers.
