		</div><p>US rapper DaBaby has offered another apology after facing a heavy backlash over crude and homophobic remarks he made at a music festival.</p>
<p>The Grammy-nominated performer said he was misinformed for his comments about HIV/Aids, in a social media post a day after he was cut from Lollapalooza’s line-up in Chicago.</p>
<p>On Monday, New York City’s Governors Ball and Day N Vegas in Las Vegas each announced the rapper had been dropped from their line-ups.</p>
<p>Baby, whose real name is Jonathan Kirk, apologised to the LGBTQ+ community for his “hurtful and triggering” comments.</p>
<p>“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,” he wrote.</p>
<p>“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.”</p>
<p>It is the second time DaBaby has apologised following his remarks at Miami’s Rolling Loud Festival.</p>
<p>While on stage, he used crude language and asked attendees who were not gay men or people not affected by HIV or Aids to raise their mobile phone flashlights.</p>
<p>He then incorrectly said the disease would “make you die in two or three weeks”.</p>
<p>DaBaby’s remarks caused an immediate storm for the rapper, whose song Rockstar was one of the biggest hits last year. He was nominated for a Grammy for record of the year.</p>
<p>In recent days, several artists including Madonna, Questlove and Sir Elton John have denounced his remarks.</p>
<p>Dua Lipa, who collaborated with DaBaby on the popular remix of her song Levitating, said she was “surprised and horrified” by his comments.</p>
