After being banned from Lollapalooza, New York’s Governors Ball and the Day N Vegas festival for his homophobic remarks last month, DaBaby performed Sunday at Summer Jam in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and offered another apology.

"I never ever meant to offend anybody," the "Suge" rapper said in a video before hitting the stage at MetLife stadium, according to Complex.com

As previously reported, on July 25 at the Rolling Loud festival in Miami, DaBaby asked fans to shine their cellphone flashlights if they “didn’t show up today with HIV/AIDS, any of them deadly sexually transmitted diseases that will make you die in two to three weeks.”

Following the Summer Jam video, he added, “Other than the people that were actually offended, the rest of you were being cry babies,” then performed his hit "Cry Baby," which he recorded with Megan Thee Stallion. When she was recently asked about his controversial comments, she said, "It is crucial for all of us to have compassion and acceptance of every human."

Boosie Badazz is one of the few artists supporting DaBaby, and added him to his Boosie Bash on August 25 in Baton Rouge, LA.
