DaBaby says losing $200million over homophobic rant was “a blessing in disguise”
DaBaby has said that losing $200million (£160,780,000) after a homophobic rant he made in 2021 was “a blessing in disguise”.Back in February 2021, DaBaby got on stage and made homophobic comments and misleading statements about HIV/AIDS. “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 week,” he told the crowd at Rolling Loud. “Fellas, if you ain’t suck a n****a dick in the parking lot, put your cell phone lights in the air.
Keep it fucking real.”He also brought Tory Lanez on stage with him after he was arrested for shooting his former friend and frequent collaborator Megan Thee Stallion in July 2020.DaBaby went on a boomer style homophobic rant at Rolling Loud that was oddly specific pic.twitter.com/D47p64FaqO— Right Wing Cope (@RightWingCope) July 26, 2021On Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast, the rapper was asked if there was one thing in his career he regrets.
DaBaby eventually replied: “I wish I told Rolling Loud I missed my flight. I’ll send the money back, I missed my flight,” the North Carolina rapper joked – making light of the career-damaging comments.Sharpe asked DaBaby, “How different would your life have been if that moment [at Rolling Loud] didn’t happen?” before estimating how much more money he would have.
The rapper then kept Sharpe guessing until they reached the figure of $200million.“Where would I be mentally and spiritually if I wasn’t forced to sit my ass down and self-reflect?
