Rapper 'DaBaby' Doubles Down on Homophobic Rant Attempting To Explain Comments

"As if that wasn't enough, DaBaby, whose set was scheduled right after Megan Thee Stallion, performed his verse on Megan's hit song "Cry Baby," then brought her alleged shooter Tory Lanez on stage disguised in a costume."
Pardon?
What the fuck!? That is a hell of a rant.
Did you run this gif through a Gameboy advance video player?

Thank you for this post! This was very informative and many stigmas against HIV/AIDS are still very true in this day and age, even amongst those of us in the LGBTQ+ community.
As for DaBaby, his abhorrent words will get the best of him. With Dua Lipa now speaking out against him, I'm hoping she or her record label will pull the version of "Levitating" from airplay and streaming, and replace it with the original version.
And I also hope that DaBaby's music in general will get pulled too. What an awful human being.
In the meantime, enjoy this mash-up someone put together of Megan Thee Stallion in Dua Lipa's "Levitating":
What a shit statement lol…
So what if your gay fans do have AIDS? None of that makes any sense.

Having 50 Cent as a mentor really did make him a worse person than he already was. I'll never understand logic of rocking with Tory Lanez, supporting Meg is net positive by all metrics unless you're courting a specific group of people.
man I'm crying from this stupid ass voiceover lmao, meech is a GOAT
To honestly follow that up with "I don't understand what I did", is a whole level I can't even begin to understand.
This dude is a true piece of shit. The way he's treated Megan Thee Stallion combined with these "statements" just earned him a permanent spot on my "turn that shit off"-list.
You forgot that he punched a woman in the face for no reason as well. He's been cancelled since then by me.
Old rappers were terrible with the homophobia, slurs were up there with bitch as a derogatory term to sprinkle in your raps. That said hip hop has gotten better in that regards and outside of some flareups (hi Migos) you aren't going to hear many full homophobic rants like Da Baby on record or in concert in the last ten years or so.
But as someone who's been on a nostalgia trip during covid listening to old rap records…eesh. Fucking terrible.
She called it. When Dua was talking that's a bad look for someone who makes a bunch of his coin doing features.
Someone didn't pay attention to the Wendy William's meme.
His music is shit, his style is shit, his opinions are shit, what else? I watched a cringeworthy ass video of him putting on so much jewelry he couldn't even move, all just for the flex. Dude is corny.
Im suprised, usually a rapper like this would just go "yall sensitive" and ignore the backlash. He knows he's gonna need more collabs to help his career so I guess he wants to squash this now lol
...huh thats a weird angle
"...having the patience to deal with what comes with the position we play in our culture"
When in the world has the "black community" ever demanded non-sequitur, unprompted homophobia?
I was in the same camp for a WHILE based on his Billboard output.
Then I did an 180 after hearing the What's Poppin remix and Wants n Needs with Drake.
Not gonna speak on his politics/worldview but he can absolutely bring the heat when inspired.
So I'm thinking maybe he's had a few (or more than a few) AIDS scares? Some false-positive tests perhaps? Because he seems oddly laser-focused about AIDS specifically. Or he could just be a fucking moron. You know, it's a toss up really.
