Fan throws Adidas at DaBaby during Rolling Loud performance

Shoe fly, don’t bother DaBaby. 

The Rolling Loud music festival came to a screeching halt Sunday when an irate concertgoer hurled a shoe at “Suge” rapper DaBaby during his performance. 

“Who the f–k threw that mother f–kin’ busted a– God damn [Adidas]?,” questioned DaBaby, 29, after narrowly dodging a sneaker that was tossed at him from the crowd at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens. The North Carolina native emerged from the incident unharmed.

So far, the nefarious footwear flinger remains at large. 

But the sneaky sneaker attack came moments after DaBaby, real name Johnathan Kirk, surprised fans with a guest appearance by embattled R&B singer Tory Lanez, 28. Some social media watchdogs found Lanez’s appearance suspect — since it occurred soon after his ex, hip-hop superstar and Sports Illustrated cover model Megan thee Stallion, left the stage. (Warning: There is some strong language in the clips racking up millions of views as of Monday morning.)

In October, Lanez, born Daystar Peterson, was charged with one felony count of assault with a semiautomatic firearm for allegedly shooting “Savage” songstress Megan, 26, in the foot after attending a Los Angeles pool party with Kylie Jenner, 23, last July. 

Lanez pleaded not guilty in Los Angeles in November, and has since maintained his innocence on social media. 

Megan and DaBaby — who collaborated on hit tracks “Cry Baby” and “Cash S–t” — were recently embroiled in a heated Twitter exchange after the Charlotte resident released new song “SKAT,” featuring vocals from Lanez in June. 

And now, social media sleuths seem to believe that DaBaby’s shoe snafu was committed by a Megan fan who was outraged by Lanez’s Rolling Loud cameo during his set. 

Wait I’m weak af at the fact that someone threw a shoe @ Da Baby for bringing out Tory Lanez 😂😂😂😭😭😭

They saw Da Baby brought out Tory Lanez and threw a shoe at him? A shell toe at that.

A few online jokesters are even compared DaBaby’s boot-bombing to that of former President George W. Bush — who was nearly hit with two shoes thrown by incensed Iraqi journalist Muntadhar al-Zaidi, now 42, during a December 2008 press conference in Baghdad. 

Neither DaBaby, Lanez nor Megan have directly commented on the Adidas tossing fracas at Rolling Loud.  

However one internet instigator appears to be offering himself up as a prime suspect in the case.
