(CNN)More bad news for DaBaby.
The Lollapalooza musical festival canceled the rapper's performance on Sunday after his comments that were widely condemned as homophobic.
At the Rolling Loud music festival in Miami on July 25, DaBaby made false and insulting comments about gay men and HIV. He also spoke crudely about women.
DaBaby defended his comments later on Instagram.
"I wasn't going on a rant. That's called a call to action. That's what that's called, cause I'm a live performer," he said. "I'm the best live performer."
Elton John, Madonna and Dua Lipa were among the names speaking out to condemn the comments.
Dua Lipa, who collaborated with the rapper on a remix of her song "Levitating," said in a statement on her Instagram stories that she was "surprised and horrified at DaBaby's comments."
At least one celebrity has spoken out in support of DaBaby.
"If you gonna have the Lil Nas X video and him living his truth, you gonna damn sure have people like DaBaby who gonna speak their truth," rapper T.I. said on Instagram about rapper Lil Nas X being openly gay.
Rappers Young Thug and G Herbo will take DaBaby's spots at the festival, Lollapalooza announced.
The festival tweeted that it was "founded on diversity, inclusivity, respect and love," and that DaBaby's performance was canceled "with that in mind."

I just know him for ruining “Levitating” by Dua Lipa. Her solo version is so much better, but all I ever hear on the radio is the duo version.
Nobody ever told blacks that. “Faggot” is their word for white liberals in general, often accurately.
Been that way for awhile. Homosexuals donate more money to the Rats, so their agenda is more important. Same goes for school vouchers and charter schools. Teacher unions donate more money to the Rats, so their agenda comes first, even though blacks want vouchers and charter schools and would benefit greatly from both. But in the end, blacks are considered expendable by the Rats, especially since 90 percent will vote Rat anyway.
Madonna? Is that old skank still performing?
Man I saw Pearl Jam,Soundgarden,etc in 92 and look at this now..rock androll is truly dead
Lollapalooza is still around? wow
I am predicting that the person that took this rappers spot at the concert will be the next drive by rapper shot. I’m pretty sure that’s how they roll.
Whatever. Just another purveyor of trash. A pox on all of them.
“horrified”. These snowflakes have no idea what horror truly is. Someone needs to dump them out in N Korea or speak to people who truly know what horror is like the Jews. It’s unbelievable the adjectives they use to describe someone’s remarks. Our enemies won’t need to waste ammo or even need to use weapons for that matter. All they’ll have to say is ‘boo’.
But the lyrics can be some of the nastiest most vulgar garbage you could never imagine...and that’s fine
What is a DaBaby?
That’s her rap handle..Old Skank.
I dadont daknow.
“especially since 90 percent will vote Rat anyway...”
whether they’re willing, or living or not.
Completed it.
That’s rich coming from Dua Lipa, one of the most openly anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist loons in entertainment. Shame, since she’s hot, but very evil.
I need to look at my new Fictionary.
Isn’t Lollapalooza that event where they had, at least years ago, geeks performing (where they would bite off the head of a chicken, etc.)? Or am I confusing it with another music events?
