A Wrap For Kevin Gates?
The case against Kevin Gates is officially on and popp’in … the alleged victim has broken her silence; her family says they’re set to sue; the Florida State Attorney’s Office has reportedly given the case “special attention”, calling the rapper’s caught-on-camera offense “Simple Battery” — a first degree misdemeanor; and a petition to ban Kevin Gates from Hip Hop, and stage performances across the state of Florida, has nearly meet it’s marker of 5,000 signatures.
“Gates is ruining the hip-hop culture and it’s strongly believed that his presence in the music industry will insight more violence.” ~Lance Cooper, Petitioner
According to FL state law, if found guilty of Simple Battery Kevin Gates could face up to a year in jail. This news comes four-days a 30-sec video-gone-viral revealed the Baton Rouge rapper — real name, Kevin Jerome Gilyard — delivering a fan with a very violent kick from the stage, during his Friday night performance in Lakeland, FL. Cops were not called to the club and the female victim of the attack, 18-year-old Miranda Dixon hasn’t taken action till now.
“It still hurts so much, that is why I try not to talk too much, or even walk around. I just cannot still believe this happened to me.” ~Miranda Dixon
The Florida teen was accompanied by her mother and younger sister when she spoke to local TV reporters, yesterday. “I forgive him. I just wish he would’ve never done it, but I do want to thank everyone out there for all your support,” said Dixon. “I don’t think anyone should be his fan, I really don’t.” Considering the video out of Michigan that shows Kevin Gates “assaulting two female fans at a concert in March”, this latest incident wouldn’t be a ‘first of its kind’ situation for the rapper.
What’s out there:
“Police say Gates kicked Miranda Dixon, 18, in the chest and stomach area with so much force that it knocked her back into the crowd during his performance Friday. Police say the kick caused her to briefly lose consciousness. Miranda says she saved up her money just to see the rapper and doesn’t understand why he kicked her. Dixon says she will no longer support the rapper and is no longer a fan. Miranda mother wants the rapper to be held responsible for his actions.”
Here’s what Dixon’s mother, Kristy Ireland-Ricks, had to say about Kevin Gates:
“He not only harmed my daughter for no reason, he embarrassed her in front of the whole world. I am so thankful to the community for supporting my daughter. No man should ever hit a woman. That is not OK. He should be arrested and sent to prison.”
Miranda’s 17-year-old sister, Christian, said this:
“I was so worried about my sister, but I know she is strong and will get through this. I do not want anyone else to have to go through what she did.”

Listen up black men your games that you play smells like shit on shit, he kicked her because’s she’s a black woman. If she was a white woman he wouldn’t of kicked her, this is the very same reason why i didn’t like black men. They treat black women like trash!!
Remember you came out of a black woman’s tummy!!
@WWC not sure what the color of the female has to do with this situation. Based on the MAJORITY of ur posts, I gather that u have serious issues with BM.
Ya think? lol
Her hatred for black men is only exceeded by her hated of lightskin women.
Girlfriend has some issues.
it’s cause nonblack men dont play when it come to their women. Ns already know they will be swinging from a tree if they even think about kicking them lol
@Woman you are RIGHT. That yellow punk is just another down low woman hating Black male bitch! BM need to come correct. Can’t keep their hands to themselves but want us sistas to march and protest on their behalf?
You damn right he wouldn’t have kicked a white chick in the face. I take my men on a person to person reality no skin folks passes. hell no.
Yall so called good BM need to come to the defend of BW or you, too will be painted with the same brush as this punk ass closeted homosexual bitch. Real men don’t go around kicking women in the face but down low punks -(like Miss Dr. Dre) LOVE to beat down BW don’t need to give a fatherless bastard reason to beat a BW. We’re black we deserve it, right, special snowflakes?
Woman, you don’t care. You talk shit, and there’s no point to your comment, also you´re of done it spelling sucks ass…
Da f*ck? Why you changing the topic attacking that sis for telling HER TRUTH when the fact is yet another punk ass bm beat down a bw and you think thats normal? Woman’s words doesn’t take back the FACT this bitch kicked a sis in the face!
He looks like someone’s bitch. Mothers stop taking ur daughters to see this crap. Young ladies it’s time to find other things to occupy ur time. How about being more productive in your communities
(C)rap concerts are the last place I would ever take my little nieces. They already learned that rap don’t love BW and our family don’t support that bullshit. Old school rap only, pre-NWA!!
What can I say…it’s Florida.
I saw on another website that the victim was white but black people should know better than to run up on somebody that looks crazy and has tattoos on his face.
The victim was bi racial
The victims mother is white
(The video of the victim speaking is on WorldStarhiphop)
Parents need to teach their kids better. Apparently this fool doesn’t like women and takes his frustration out on them but I bet he wouldn’t fight another man.
Kevin Gates is a miscreant akata person. The kick was unwarranted and unnecessary to that female fan. She didn’t flagrantly assault him with criminal intent. She touched him in excitement and idolization. He couldn’t discern that???
Why are Black American females supporting hip-hop trash artists who don’t respect them or acknowledge their humanity???
Stop thinking with your brain (soul) and think with your MIND (spirit).
AGREED!
…..this is/was the same guy that was banging his cousin….!!!!….IDIOT!!!!
You need to reAlly stfu slut you come from a generation of inbreds …. Ask your momma which of your 5 white uncles who smashed that ugly flat ass bitch ! Before she met you bm daddy who will never claim your sick retarded stink azz!
It wasn’t even her who touch his thimble.
4Real that was some GAY soccer shit. Real men don’t kick they STOMP…
Real men stomp OTHER MEN.
