In 2022, DaBaby was charged with felony battery and accused of sucker-punching a Los Angeles County rental property owner during an unauthorized music video shoot. The rapper has now agreed to plead guilty to misdemeanor simple battery, TMZ reports and Pitchfork can confirm. As a result of the plea deal, DaBaby has also been sentenced to one day in a Los Angeles County jail (which he has served), given a year of probation, and ordered to pay $10,000 in restitution to the victim.
The incident involving DaBaby and the rental property owner, Gary Pagar, took place in 2020. Pagar, in a lawsuit, claims that DaBaby rented one of his properties for a “private vacation,” promising that he would not have more than 12 people on the site. Instead, DaBaby allegedly hosted 40 people and a film crew to shoot a music video. Pagar, who is now 68 years old, says that DaBaby attacked him when he tried to enforce his capacity rules. The civil trial is scheduled to begin in September, according to Rolling Stone.
Pitchfork has reached out to DaBaby’s attorney, Blair Bernholz Berk, for comment on the rapper’s plea and sentencing.
