Sada Baby is under fire for a recent social media post where he wished death on Lil Nas X.
While reacting to the news of DMX's grave condition in the hospital after suffering an overdose, Sada Baby wrote on his Instagram Stories, "Lord we said Nas X, not DMX." Given his past controversial posts, some people accused Sada Baby of being homophobic, but he has yet to clarify his message.
Lil Nas X has been no stranger to controversy recently, as the video for his latest single, "Montero (Call Me By Your Name)," angered viewers with its imagery, which included the entertainer sliding down a pole and giving Satan a lapdance. His collaboration with MSCHF for the "Satan" Air Max 97s was also halted, as Nike's request for a temporary restraining order against the brand has been granted as of Thursday, April 1. Nike denied being affiliated with the Lil Nas X x MSCHF Satan shoe and did not authorize its production.
