Madonna wasted no time shutting down rapper DaBaby over his hateful comments towards the LGBTQ community. Performing at the Rolling Loud festival in Miami last week, DaBaby was heard telling the crowd: "If you didn't show up today with HIV, AIDS… put your cellphone light up. "Ladies, if your p***y smell like water, put a cellphone light them up. Fellas, if you ain't sucking d**k in the parking lot, put your cellphone light up. Keep it real." "All the lights went up, gay or straight. You wanna know why? Because even my gay fans don’t got f**king AIDS, stupid ass n****s. They don’t got AIDS. My gay fans, they take care of themselves. They ain’t got no nasty gay n****s, see what I’m saying? They ain’t no junkies on the street," he added.

His comments quickly began to circulate on social media, with thousands of outraged Twitter users calling for the rapper to be canceled. Now the Queen of Pop herself has taken to her own Instagram account to slam the rapper in a raging rant. "If you're going to make hateful remarks to the LGBTQ+ community about HIV/AIDS then know your facts," Madonna wrote alongside a video of DaBaby's comments.

"These new ARV's can keep a person with AIDS alive for the rest of their lives!!! AID's is not transmitted by standing next to someone in a crowd." Madonna added that she would "put her cell phone lighter in the air" and "pray for your ignorance". Addressing DaBaby's "sexist remarks" about women, she said it "only encourages more discrimination against women who fight daily against the oppression of living under the constraints of the Male Gaze." She added: "People like you are the reason we are still living in a world divided by fear. "All Human beings should be treated with dignity and respect regardless of race, gender, sexual preference or religious beliefs. AMEN."

Apologizing for his comments, he said in a series of tweets: "Anyone who done ever been effected by AIDS/HIV y’all got the right to be upset, what I said was insensitive even though I have no intentions on offending anybody. So my apologies. "But the LGBT community… I ain't trippin on y'all, do you. Y'all business is y'all business."

He added: "& for any brands, networks, or artists that like to profit off of black rappers influence on the culture, without understanding it or having the patience to deal with what comes with the position we play in our culture. Keep yo money next time us 'N****S' human too. #GodBless." Despite his apology, he seemed to double down on his comments in his new video - which dropped on Wednesday, July 28. In it, he held up a black and white sign that said "AIDS" while rapping: "B***h, we like AIDS/ I'm on your a**/ we on your a**/ b***h we won't go away." The clip ended with a message: "Don't Fight Hate With Hate," spelled out in rainbow lettering. <h6>Featured image credit: Storms Media Group / Alamy</h6>
