On Tuesday (Aug. 3), Banks posted a message on her Instagram Story, wondering why the North Carolina rapper wasn’t canceled long ago following a 2020 incident, in which he hit a woman in the face.
She wrote: “Y’all should have BEEN canceled dababy when he was caught on camera punching a female fan in the face. I’m not believing any of this performative canceling ppl are doing now when everyone was so quick to forget that happened. Apology or not, keep him canceled.”

What Banks is referring to is a March of 2020 incident, in which the former 2019 XXL Freshman slapped a woman who appeared to have struck him with her phone during his club appearance at Whiskey North in Tampa, Fla. The assault was captured on video and went viral on social media. DaBaby would later hop on his IG Story and explain what happened.

However, the alleged victim, Tyronesha Laws, didn’t accept his apology. She filed a lawsuit against DaBaby.
In a statement to XXL, the victim’s attorneys, Matt Morgan and Chelsea Cromer, condemned DaBaby’s alleged actions. “The incident was outrageous and shocking,” they said. “We have requested a jury trial and look forward to presenting all of the surrounding circumstances to a jury of our client’s peers. Our goal is to deter similar conduct in the future and send a message that this type of behavior is not tolerated in America.”
