Kevin Gates has made a reputation for himself as a man who has no problem talking about — or even demonstrating — vulgar or disturbing acts, even if it may make others uncomfortable.
The Baton Rouge rapper did just that when he gestured for a female fan to come on stage with him during the opening night of his Only The Generals Tour in Virgina.
Gates prompted her to sit down, tilted her head back, and let out a wad of spit into her mouth. Gates’ actions caused the crowd to go berserk, and he proceeded to continue rapping while the fan processed what just took place.

Drake fans believe he’s still dissing Pusha T on his new album For All the Dogs.
The 6 God’s latest project hit streaming services early Friday morning (October 6), and listeners have already theorized that a few choice bars on “Fear of Heights” are aimed at his long-running nemesis.
In his venomous second verse, Drizzy mentions Virginia, which could be a reference to either King Push’s home state or his wife, Virginia Williams (who he previously namedropped on 2018’s “Duppy Freestyle.”)
