Interestingly arriving after he was axed from several festivals, the MC expresses remorse for his comments — which still bemoaning the anger directed at him on social media.

His words below…

Speaking in a statement, the rapper wrote:

“Social Media moves so fast that people want to demolish you before you even have the opportunity to grow, educate, and learn from your mistakes.

As a man who has had to make his own way from very difficult circumstances, having people I know publicly working against me — knowing that what I needed was education on these topics and guidance — has been challenging. I appreciate the many people who came to me with kindness, who reached out to me privately to offer wisdom, education, and resources. That’s what I needed and it was received.

I want to apologize to the LGBTQ+ community for the hurtful and triggering comments I made. Again, I apologize for my misinformed comments about HIV/AIDS and I knew education on this is important. Love to all. God bless. – DaBaby”

Sincere or a means of securing the bag?
