Homophobic rapper DaBaby—seriously that’s the name he chose—is apologizing for being a rabid homophobe who is also ignorant AF about HIV and AIDS. I mean, he said some antigay shiz, and was called out for it by the likes of Elton John, Madge, Questlove, and even his one-time collaborator Dua Lipa, but wasn’t about to apologize.
See, at last month’s Rolling Loud music festival, DaFool, used his time on stage to wax poetic about women whose “pussy smell like water” and how he loves them. What he does not love, however, are men who are “sucking dick in the parking lot” and people with HIV, because he doesn’t want to be around something “that’ll make you die in two or three weeks.” So, like I said, a lot of famous folks took DaBaby to task and he doubled down and refused to apologize until … he was dropped from several high-paying gigs and thought he might soon have to change his name to DaBrokeAss. And so he said this:
“I ain’t trippin on y’all, do you. Y’all business is y’all business.”
Not really an apology, and not enough to keep the jobs from disappearing. He lost a campaign with the clothing brand boohooMAN, and was dropped from several music festivals including Lollapalooza, the Governors Ball, and Day N Vegas. And now he’s sorry, posting his to Instagram:
Oops, sorry DaBaby, but when you apologize by blaming social media for making your bigotry go viral, you still aren’t really apologizing, and the jobs keep looking at you and saying:
“Um. It’s a DaNo.”
After his Instapology DaBaby was dropped from the Austin City Limits Festival and the iHeartRadio Music Festival; he will not be performing at the Can’t Wait: Live! benefit concert in Philadelphia or the Parklife Festival in Manchester.
DaBaby is DaIdiot. And I’m SorryNotSorry.
