North Carolina rapper DaBaby has won his trial over a payment dispute that ended in a brawl in Miami, which took place in 2020, according to a TMZ report.
The “Tough Skin” rapper, with his crew members, was hit with allegations of physically assaulting concert promoter Kenneth Carey and a friend. The two men said they lost items such as cash and a cell phone.
The dispute happened after Carey and DaBaby disagreed over a payment amount for an event Carey hired the “ROCKSTAR” rapper to host in Miami.
Prosecutors also dropped a criminal battery charge against him. However, DaBaby was still hit with a $6 million federal lawsuit over the brawl. The trial ended Monday with the jury siding in DaBaby’s favor.
Over the last couple of years, DaBaby has been in a cycle of trouble since his offensive 2021 homophobic comments at his Rolling Loud performance.
Earlier this year, DaBaby was also involved in another brawl at a bowling alley between his ex-girlfriend’s brother, singer DaniLeigh.
