Rapper DaBaby was cut Sunday from Lollapalooza's closing lineup following crude and homophobic remarks he made last week at a Miami-area music festival.
The Grammy-nominated artist, whose name is Jonathan Kirk, had been scheduled as a closing act on the final night of the four-day music festival in downtown Chicago.
Lollapalooza organizers tweeted Sunday that rapper Young Thug would perform at 9 p.m. instead.
In recent days, artists including Madonna, Questlove and Elton John have denounced remarks DaBaby made during a performance last Sunday at Miami's Rolling Loud Festival.
Lollapalooza said it decided to cancel his performance because it's a festival founded on diversity and respect.
