CHICAGO (AP) — Rapper DaBaby was cut Sunday from Lollapalooza’s closing lineup following crude and homophobic remarks he made last week at a Miami-area music festival. The Grammy-nominated artist, whose name is Jonathan Kirk, had been scheduled as a closing act on the final night of the four-day in downtown Chicago. Lollapalooza organizers tweeted Sunday that rapper Young Thug would perform at 9 p.m. instead.“With that in mind, DaBaby will no longer be performing at Grant Park tonight.”In recent days, artists including Madonna, Questlove and Elton John have denounced remarks DaBaby made during a performance last Sunday at Miami’s Rolling Loud Festival.
What man refers to himself as, Da Baby? WTFU!
Guessing the iHeartFestival gig in Vegas will do the same. DaBaby
Dababy was just stating stats, as the rate of HIV and sexual diseases is high for gays
sad what we allow to be considered offensive, we seem to be obsessed w/catchy phrases when “phobic”, (phobia) Is a mental disorder creating an unusually fear towards something, not a stance on a group’s sexual preference, dude didn’t say anything worse then your kids on fortnite
To the innocent bystander who knows nothing about rap, imagine learning ‘Young Thug’ being the replacement for ‘DaBaby’. Reads funny.
I’m sure the remarks weren’t made directly at Lori Uglyfoot ……wow! But, the main question is………was he wearing a mask?
Young Thug is an upgrade
I dont think white people should be whitesplaining the ideas of a black man...
Poor DaBaby. . . Baby Thug closing it out!
Do some of the names of Rappers have an adverse influence on our young children? And, what is the reason these stage users choose these names that imply crime or undesirable people? I hesitate to call it entertainment. Just asking.
Sucks for everyone involved.... ▪️for those hurt by what he said ▪️for those wanting to see him perform ▪️for him and those who lose a paycheck Hopefully there will be some honest remorse and we can choose not to write him off for good.
In the important BLM, anti-racism, social shift it is time to also talk openly about the homophobia in black male culture.
I read his name as 'DaBooty,' like this dude isn't gay. With a name like 'DaBaby.' If you know what goes on at the underground mansion parties.........you know the undercover gay lifestyle these rappers have to partake in by their master-record company handlers.
