Police say DaBaby was supposed to perform at a venue called Cafe Iguana Pines.
The promoter and a friend showed up the rap star’s hotel to pay the rapper his $30,000 appearance fee, but the money came up $10,000 short.
DaBaby allegedly demanded the rest of his money and the pair ended up in a verbal altercation. The cops say DaBaby punched the promoter’s friend in the face during the dispute.
One of DaBaby’s boys allegedly went through the man’s pockets while he was on the ground, took his iphone and then dumped apple juice all over the guy.
DaBaby has already denied the claims, but he is being held without bond over an active warrant in Texas.
It’s the latest in a string of legal troubles for the rising rap star.
After being detained for concealing a weapon and having marijuana, the star hit back at authorities for targeting him whenever he plays in the area, writing on his Instagram Stories: “Dirty a## police department try to take me to jail every time I got a show in the city.”
