For DaBaby, it’s a case of another one bites the dust.
Because just one day after being axed from the Lollapalooza line-up following shocking homophobic remarks, the rapper has been dropped from the Governors Ball Festival line-up too.
Full story below…
The MC had been set to perform on the first day of the three-day extravaganza on September 24.,
However, organizers for the event – which is celebrating its 10th anniversary – issued a statement confirming his removal and clearly indicated the decision centered around the current drama he’s embroiled in.
Despite not addressing the star by name, reps shared a revised line-up poster with his name removed and offered the following:
“Founders Entertainment does not and will not tolerate hate or discrimination of any kind. We welcome and celebrate the diverse communities that make New York City the greatest city in the world. Thank you to the fans who continue to speak up for what is right. Along with you, we will continue to use our platform for good.”
Here’s what the Friday line-up on the early iteration of the poster looked like:
The latest axing comes as backlash against the intensifies, especially after DaBaby’s ill-advised attempt at clarifying (and seemingly justifying) his words.
