BACKGRID
DaBaby is struggling with criminal rates for a beatdown a male promises he suffered for striving to halt the rapper’s entourage from taking pictures a music online video on his property.
The rapper has been billed with felony battery by the L.A. County District Attorney’s Place of work … in excess of an incident from early December last calendar year … which allegedly left a guy, Gary Pragar, with really serious injuries.
There’s a further man named Thankgod Awute who’s getting charged as nicely. Prosecutors assert he was DaBaby’s cohort in criminal offense … they strike him with felony robbery.
Pragar filed a lawsuit in February, saying he was attacked for imposing simple residence rental principles at his location.
DaBaby and his group rented a massive pad that Pragar manages in L.A. … and Pragar claims he was explained to it was going to be a trip place for DB and his buddies. Pragar suggests he made apparent … there was a visitor restrict — no far more than 12 — which he statements DaBaby’s management group agreed to in a rental agreement.
Through their weeklong remain … Pragar claims he grew to become informed there ended up way far more than 12 individuals at the house at any offered time and complained to DaBaby’s staff … receiving certain, falsely he claims, that they wouldn’t be there for very long.
Ultimately, on Dec. 2, he says he paid a stop by himself and realized they were taking pictures a songs video clip there with an complete film crew and a ton of other folks all around — upwards of 40, he claims — and Pragar tried out to shut the entire point down by chatting to DaBaby.
That is when he claims he was attacked by anyone in DB’s crew, element of which was caught on video clip. He says DB requested the dude off of Pragar, but then allegedly sucker-punched him in the facial area, knocking out his tooth … this, for each the lawsuit.
DaBaby shot and killed 19-year-previous Jaylin Craig in 2018, a shooting the rapper claims was in self-defense.

Appears like Pragar went to the authorities soon after this, and now they’re coming down tough on DB and co. Rough few weeks for DaBaby — this is just the most recent incident for him in a string of seemingly nonstop hiccups.
BTW, Jake Paul was randomly at this shoot … and the movie appears to be a single for an artist signed to DaBaby’s corporation, and he may well have just been cameoing. Anyway, the video’s out.
