Southern rapper Kevin Gates has some loyal fans sticking to his side despite kicking a female fan during a concert last month.
Prior to taking the stage at a Tampa Bay, Florida show last night (September 6), attendees came together and spoke up for Gates.
“I’m not saying he was right in retaliating the way he did but at the same time, how many times can you keep asking someone to stop touching you before you defend yourself,” said Ryan Sayers. “I feel like she was disrespecting him because he asked her multiple times to stop and she didn’t.” said Danielle Vitale.

Gates addressed his headline-generating situation on a song called “#TheTruth” last week.
“Man in the mirror, you way outta order/Go to jail, who gonna look out for your daughter?/All in the news ’bout what happened in Florida/Posted on WorldStar on iPhone recorders/She grabbed my d*ck over and acted, I’m sorry/Two or three times I had already warned her/Edit that part out, I don’t like to argue,” he raps in the opening bars of the song.” (“The Truth”)
Father forgive me – I fucked up a blessing. Whenever I fall you the only one catch me. https://t.co/MqQU3kiH1l

The 18-year-old fan Miranda Dixon talked about the attack’s aftermath a few days ago.
“It still hurts so much, that is why I try not to talk too much, or even walk around,” Dixon said. “I just cannot still believe this happened to me,” said the teenager. (ABC Action News)
Last week, Gates received a battery charge for the attack.
Lakeland Police Department has charged the Louisiana-based Gates, also known as Kevin Jerome Gilyard, with battery, according to a complaint affidavit filed Tuesday afternoon. LPD reported that Dixon intends to press charges against Gates. (10 News)
This ain’t cellblock D – people are so stupid with the “disrespected him” statements hahaha. His security should handle that if there’s a problem. You can’t just kick every female who you think is disrespecting you in the chest.

She grabbed his dick? Is his dick located on his leg? Stupid ass.
