Rapper DaBaby is accused of being a party to a violent tussle in which a 64-year-old man claimed he was ‘beat, punched, spat on, threatened, shoved, and robbed’ in confronting the rapper over the terms of their rental agreement.
In court docs filed in Los Angeles, the homeowner, named Gary Pagar, said that he had rented the home to the rapper, 29, for the purposes of ‘a private vacation’ with nine friends for an agreed-upon fee of $43,706.
Pagar said in legal docs that the entertainer, whose real name is Jonathan Lyndale Kirk, violated the terms by shooting a music video at the abode instead, which included about 40 people, including a film crew.

Pagar said that when he confronted the rapper on the day of the December 2, 2020 shoot, he was thrown to the ground by an associate of the rapper identified in court docs as DOE 1.
About 30 people were on hand at the time of the incident, Pagar said, and no one came to his aid amid the onslaught from his much-larger attacker.
The Charlotte, North Carolina native was seen in a nearby convertible in the clip as the confrontation unfolded.
Pagar told the court that the rapper exited the vehicle to ‘taunt, threaten and punch’ him, stole his phone, and threatened him not to call the police.
