Miami Police Detain DaBaby After Miami Concert Shooting
The shooting went down Monday night after 11:30 PM ET in Miami. At least two people suffered gunshot wounds from the attack.
Miami Beach police spokesman Ernesto Rodriguez confirmed that one of the victims has been treated and released from the hospital. He said the second victim remains hospitalized in critical condition. Just seconds after the shots ended, police could be seen appearing to take two men into custody and detectives temporarily shut down the MacArthur Causeway at one point during the investigation. Rodriguez confirmed that officers have “several possible subjects detained,” including the 29-year-old rapper DaBaby, whose real name is Jonathan Lyndale Kirk. (Local 10)
Prior to the craziness, DaBaby turned up at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium with more than 10,000 people in attendance.
“Last night. Private Event. 10,000+ Hard Rock Stadium.? Shoutout to my boy @bthompsonofficial we ?in???? @gemini.one1 ?”
DaBaby Wants To Know What’s Next
In late May 2021, DB hit up his Instagram page to share a snapshot of himself holding onto his and fellow rap star Roddy Ricch‘s Top Rap Song Billboard Music Awards trophies. But more interesting is the teaser he left in the caption.
“BILLBOARDBABY ©️ Said dat meant dat stood on it. Thank you @billboard ?? What’s next???”
Baby also acknowledged securing a huge win for Top Streaming Song of last year.
“Thank you for the flowers Billboard Music Awards. @bbmas @billboard Took home ✌?of them bitches.?? (“Rockstar” Ft @roddyricch ) TOP STREAMING SONG OF 2020.?? TOP RAP SONG OF 2020.?? #BILLBOARDBABY”
DaBaby + Roddy Ricch Win Top Rap Song
DaBaby pulled through to the event to accept the Top Rap Song award. He also took time out to thank the fans for holding them down and making all of the success possible.
“To be able to put out a song like ‘ROCKSTAR’ at the height of the pandemic – it’s nothing short of a blessing. I say all that to say it wouldn’t be possible without God and my team and I appreciate all y’all. And oh yeah, and most importantly, last but not least, the fans and the supporters because if y’all don’t press play, the music don’t get heard. Appreciate y’all!”
Despite the heartwarming moment, a massive cringe alert happened courtesy of Texas hip-hop artist Post Malone‘s “Rockstar” song actually getting mistakenly played as Baby’s version.
People didn’t hold back and unloaded pure jokes and fury in the YouTube video’s comments section.
“They played post Malone and not even his song lol”
“They really played the wrong rockstar?somebody gettin fired lmao”
“so who’s gonna tell the dj that’s the wrong rockstar??”
“I- who was in charge of the music ???♀️”
“Ayyo that’s not his rockstar ?”

A few days ago, DB went to Instagram with a shot of himself boo’d up alongside his “Girl From Rio” remix collaborator Anitta. Baby released a slideshow of epic pics including buzz about Brazil making their single the top song.
“1 Song in Brazil ?? “Girl From Rio” (Remix) got Brazil on FYE ? I heard they wanna see bout me , Don’t make me Book the MF jet ✈️ @anitta . ?: @thephotofalcon #InternationalBaby?”
