Only six days after taking to Instagram to apologize for the homophobic remarks he made at the Rolling Loud music festival, DaBaby has deleted his mea culpa from his page.
Social media users noticed Sunday that the lengthy, face-saving statement posted Aug. 2 was no longer anywhere to be found on the rapper’s account.
In the since-expunged apology, the Cleveland native, 29, called his Rolling Loud comments about HIV/AIDS “hurtful and triggering” and admitted that he had been “misinformed.”
The statement — which many netizens speculated had been crafted by DaBaby’s team rather than the artist himself — was posted shortly after the organizers of Lollapalooza, Governors Ball and several other music festivals dropped DaBaby from their lineups.
Elton John, Madonna and DaBaby’s “Levitating” collaborator Dua Lipa were among the many celebrities who decried his comments. Miley Cyrus, meanwhile, offered to educate DaBaby, writing on Instagram, “Would love to talk and see how we can learn from each other and help be part of making a more just and understanding future!”
