Another day, another festival cancellation for embattled rapper DaBaby. “DaBaby will no longer be performing at Austin City Limits Music Festival — lineup update coming soon,” the ACL Festival Twitter account announced Tuesday morning. The event, held in Austin, Texas, is the latest festival to drop DaBaby from its roster after homophobic and misogynistic statements he made at Rolling Loud in Miami on July 25. As a backlash has brewed, DaBaby has been scrubbed from the festival lineups at Lollapalooza, Governors Ball and Day N Vegas. I want to apologize to the LGBTQ+ community for the hurtful and triggering comments I made.”
