DaBaby has defended the comments he made during Rolling Loud Miami, which received criticism on social media for being homophobic.
During his performance at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, last Sunday, DaBaby said, "If you didn't show up today with HIV, AIDS, or any of them deadly sexually transmitted diseases that'll make you die in two to three weeks, then put your cellphone lighter up!"
"Ladies, if your p***y smell like water, put your cellphone lighter up!" he continued. "Fellas, if you ain't sucking d*** in the parking lot, put your cellphone lighter up!"
On Monday, in a lengthy Instagram post, DaBaby defended his comments and asked individuals who did not pay to attend the event to shut up.
"I'mma address this weekend's internet sh** one time and then I'mma get back to giving my love to my fans, see what I'm saying? Because what me and my fans do at the live show, it don't concern all you n***as on the internet or you bitter bi***es on the internet," DaBaby said. "It's not y'all's business. What I do at a live show is for the live show. It'll never translate correctly to somebody looking at a little five-, six-second clip from their crib on their phone. It just don't work like that, right? Regardless of what y'all motherf***ers are talking about and how the internet twisted up my motherf***ing words, me and all my fans at the show, the gay ones and the straight ones, we turned the f*** up."
"Y'all talking, y'all n***as shut the f*** up," he continued. "You n***as that ain't at the show, the show was for the n***as who paid the money and took the time out their life to come enjoy the show. Not you motherf***ers watching it on the internet, at the crib. No n***a, get your tickets. Come f*** with the live show, killa, gay or straight."
He continued to defend each and every statement he made at the festival in a lengthy series of 19 videos.
