North Carolina rapper DaBaby claims that he lost a lot of deals and endorsements at the height of his homophobic comments at Rolling Loud in 2021, but he’s taking the time to reflect on his mistakes.
DaBaby was at the height of his career in 2021, and many big stages did not skip over him, but the rapper’s downfall began slowly with him publicly humiliating his baby mother, DaniLeigh, while kicking her and his daughter out of his home months before, and at Rolling Loud when he made incorrect remarks about people living with HIV/Aids and about the LGBTQ community.
DaBaby is also owning up to his losses. The same year he made the comments, he was dropped from every concert he was scheduled to perform, including Can’t Wait Live!, Day N Vegas, the Governor’s Ball music festival in New York City, iHeartRadio Music Festival, Music Midtown, and the Parklife Festival.
DaBaby's Lost
In total, DaBaby said he lost $100 million due to the incident.
“I played myself out of millions. Millions. So take me as an example, young artists coming in, when you pop,” DaBaby expressed. While speaking with Shannon Sharpe, the rapper was asked about what he would change in his career, and he responded that he would not have gone to Rolling Loud and declined the performance.
The rapper joked that he would have said the plane broke down before he changed his tone and seemed to share his regrets for the incident.
