UPDATE: DaBaby’s team denied the gunfire was related to the video shoot.
One of DaBaby’s video shoots has reportedly erupted in gunfire. According to The Shade Room, the chart-topping rapper was on set in his home state of North Carolina on Saturday (October 3) when shots rang out.
DaBaby had been posting Instagram videos of himself throughout the weekend, flashing stacks of hundred dollar bills and inadvertently confirming his location. In one of the two clips, dozens of people are gathered in a group on a Charlotte street when all of sudden several shots go off.
In a second clip, police sirens become increasingly louder as they approach the scene where a woman is laying on the side of the road, seemingly injured. The man behind the camera says, “They hit the lady, man. They was shootin’ at us and shot a muthafuckin’ lady … she ain’t die on the scene. I hope that lady makes it to the hospital and survives. Bitch ass n-ggas. Police, too, I ain’t trustin’ none of these n-ggas. ”
The caption, which is described as an update, reads, “A woman seemingly got hit at a shoot-out that reportedly occurred at #DaBaby’s video shoot. There is no word on her condition but she was apparently taken to the hospital according to this witness.”
WCCB Charlotte reporter Marvin Beach also tweeted about the melee and included photos of the scene. Beach confirmed the person hit was suffering from serious injuries.
“#NEW At 10pm, more on a possible shooting in the Derita neighborhood,” Beach wrote. “Witnesses say rapper ‘DaBaby’ was filming a music video in the area, when it happened near W. Sugar Creek & Gibbon Rd. MEDIC says one person has life-threatening injuries.”
DaBaby has yet to speak out about the shooting on social media.
The shooting incident follows what should’ve been a celebratory week for DaBaby. On September 29, he became the first artist to earn two Album of the Year nominations from the BET Hip Hop Awards.

The award ceremony, which also finds HipHopDX nominated in the Best Hip Hop Platform category, goes down on October 27 at 9 p.m. EST.
This is a developing story.
Stop putting out that type of energy and maybe sh*t like this won’t happen around you as much. One of these days, it’s going to catch up to you, this is wake up call. You’ve had so many chances, just tone it down a bit seriously. You moving too aggressively right now and they’re watching.
Facts. It’s all good…until it isn’t.
Wait so Covid-19 doesn’t affect this area?
DaBozo has a young kid holding up fake money.
DaBozo is absolute garagbage
DaBozo has a head like an Easter Island statue and could swallow earth with his giant, creepy mouth.
oh hallelujah.
I dont think Da Baby was the intended target. But this is what happens when you do a video in the hood and allow real gangstas with real opps to congregate. Rappers take notes. It would be safer to film videos inside a studio with bikini models and stacks of fake prop money.
Somebody must have thought the prop money rappers use in videos is real and wanted to rob him. Hopefully the victim makes a speedy full recovery.
Im Da Baby
Move away and don’t come back. You always have haters in your own city. Ask Boosie, ask Rick Ross, ask Gucci Mane. They all left and went somewhere else.
Once again, The Proud Boys shoot up another peaceful meeting of brothers and sisters. This can no longer stand. We must reject the white man and everything that they have made. We must rise up and Make America Africa Again. I am personally getting started on my new mud hut home now.
#ProudBoys are a gay group all about gay love and supporting the LBGTQ Community in the UK. The US ProudBoys I guess didn’t get the memo about the name lol. It’s all gay to me. IDGAF either ways.
Was this another staged event like when he got “rolled up on” for not checking in lol. PLANT
So when does the riots and protest start over another black on black shooting.. oh never-ending wait till a white cop shoots you for resisting arrest or not complying to commands and trying to flee and reach in vehicle… welcome to america
TRUMP 2020
Bitch, white people disobey cops all the fuckin time. It’s not about compliance. The sooner you figure that out the better. Dumbass. Ask the two cops in Tulsa Oklahoma. Both shot at point blank range. One dead and one critically injured. Dude is in jail awaiting court date.
Fam, there’s boatloads of footage showing multiple races burning down buildings, setup shops, etc. Looting, causing havoc, going crazy. Fellas on skateboards and shit. You’re highly uninformed if you think it’s just single down to blacks. Lmao news clips even show you this. Doesn’t fit your narrative (if who you’re to blame the most), so you’re willing to overlook it, I get it.
*of
Where are the protest for when white guys shoot and kill their own children in schools?? …Oh yeah,forgot never! Quit falling into and creating false narratives!
Kings
BLM where BLM dude in the video gonna say f**k the police I don’t trust them either! Lol, ? @police y’all should have packed it up and rolled the hell out! Let the “ROCKSTAR” and all the tough guys save their own asses! Y’all cops have more heart than some people deserve! Hope all the easy people wake up soon!
,?
Idk why the actual fuck everyone think they invincible with COVID-19 you think you too strong for it? And then y’all got like 50 dahm people around @dababy all choppin it up and shit like how fucking stubborn are y’all chill the fuck out and keep your asses home this shit wouldn’t happen if y’all could sit y’all’s dumb asses down and why the fuck is she barefoot in the street that’s just fuckin nasty you know how much spit oil drink and crp is on the floor. You figure with all that dahm money you can buy some dahm shoes this whole dahm scene is just dumb
Her shoes fell off when she ran from the shooting.
Being from Cleveland DaBaby should know there are more “haters” out there for him than people who love him. Look at what the “haters” did to Le’Bron’s house when he moved out to California. The DaBaby needs to stop being so ghetto putting his stacks of cash on social media and his location. Didn’t he learn from the Pop Smoke killing that’s a dangerous thing to do? Everyone knows he got it going on but please DaBaby learn to keep important things like your money, location and family private. People will scheme on you and plan to kill you once they get important information on you. It’s not worth your life! Everybody don’t love you like God Almighty, family, friends,the Emmys and your fans does. You have just the same amount of haters or more. Sad but this is reality.
