Madonna tells DaBaby “know your facts” about HIV/AIDS

Madonna has addressed DaBaby’s homophobic comments during Rolling Loud this past Sunday.

The singer called out the rapper on social media, telling him to “know your facts” about HIV/AIDS.

“A message to DaBaby – if you’re going to make hateful remarks to the LGBTQ+ community about HIV/AIDS then know your facts,” Madonna began. “After decades of hard won scientific research, there are now life saving medicines available to children born with HIV, to people who contract HIV through blood transfusions, dirty needles or exchange of bodily fluids. These new ARV’s can keep a person with AIDS alive for the rest of their lives!!! AID’s is not transmitted by standing next to someone in a crowd.”

“I want to put my cellphone lighter up and pray for your ignorance, No one dies of AIDS in 2 or 3 weeks anymore. Thank God 🙏 “And your sexist remarks about Ladies who’s pussies need to smell like water only encourage more discrimination against women who fight daily against the oppression of living under the constraints of the Male Gaze.”

“People like you are the reason we are still living divided by fear. “All Human beings should be treated with dignity and respect regardless of race, gender, sexual preference or religious beliefs. AMEN. @dababy.”

The N.C. rapper went on a rant telling a crowd at the music festival to lift their phones up “if you didn’t show up today with HIV/AIDS or other STDs that’ll make you die in 2-3 weeks,” and, “Fellas, if you didn’t suck a n****s d**k in the parking lot.”

The rapper gave a half-ass apology in a post & delete video. He said that he believed his fans weren’t “nasty gay n****s” or “junkies”. He then attempted to apologize again on Tuesday.

DaBaby tweeted “Anybody who done ever been effected by AIDS/HIV y’all got the right to be upset, what I said was insensitive even though I have no intentions on offending anybody,” adding “So my apologies 🙏🏾”

Other artists like Demi Lovato, Elton John have spoke up against the rapper.
