DaBaby assaulted a female fan on Saturday night in a case of mistaken identity for the fan and too close for the artist’s taste.
The North Carolina artist was in Tampa at the Whiskey North for the “Up Close N Personal” Tour. He was slated to perform until a fan reached towards his face with a cell phone with the flashlight on.
DaBaby took offense and unleashing a powerful slap at a woman who he believed to be the offender. According to the victim, Tyronesha Laws, not only should she not have caught his wrath, she wasn’t the right person.

DaBaby took to social media to apologize and offer $10,000 for anyone with footage of the phone approaching his face.

“I do sincerely apologize, you know, I do. I’m very sorry that was a female on the other end of that flashlight on that phone. But you know keep in mind I couldn’t see you because you got the flash this close to me. Which is okay, its no problem, a lot of people did. They didn’t put it as close as you put it but a lot of people had flash on me. It’s okay that’s what I sign up for, the risk I take when i’m coming to put on a show for my fans. It’s dangerous, you know i’m blind sighted but f*ck it i’m with it.”
“I just wish you would have gave me the same respect in return. You did not give me the same respect in return, baby.”
The attorney for Miss Laws told TMZ that his client was aware of the apology.
“Morgan & Morgan has been retained to represent the interests of Tyronesha Laws. Ms. Laws has received DaBaby’s Instagram message. We look forward to speaking with Mr. Kirk.”
The Trail Of Tears
DaBaby revealed he thought the person he slapped was a man and we know he will easily slap a guy. Recently, he was accused of beating up and robbing a man in Miami. The battery charges were dropped but he’s still being investigated for robbery. Allegedly, he took a cellphone, credit card and cash.
Last year, he made headlines when he beat a man up in the Southpark Mall in Charlotte, North Carolina. The incident happened in a Louis Vuitton store and went viral quickly.
DaBaby is definitely a Hip-Hop favorite currently, however, as his assault situations pile up will his popularity be in danger?
